Motion Library - PLCopen

Functions sorted in alphabetical order:

Name Description
MC_AbortTrigger Abort MC_TouchProbe
MC_AddSuperAxis Add an axis to the axis's list of assigned, superimposed axes.
MC_CamIn Performs a slave axis move based on the Cam Table
MC_CamOut Disengages the slave axis from a MC_CamIn move
MC_CamResumePos Returns the slave axis position for resuming an MC_CamIn move
MC_CamStartPos Returns the slave axis position for starting an MC_CamIn move
MC_CamTblSelect Defined to read and initialize the specified profile
MC_ClearFaults Clear Drive Faults
MC_CreatePLCAxis Creates a PLCopenClosedA vendor -and product- independent worldwide association active in Industrial Control and aiming at standardizing PLC file formats based on XML Axis
MC_EStop Performs a Emergency stop
MC_ErrorDescription Converts the PLCopen error IDs into message strings.
MC_GearIn Performs a slave axis move based on the ratio
MC_GearInPos Performs a slave axis move based on the ratio
MC_GearOut Disengages the slave axis from a MC_GearIn or MC_GearInPos move
MC_Halt Decelerates an axis to zero velocity
MC_InitAxis Initializes a PLCopen Axis' data
MC_InitAxisFeedback Initializes a PLCopen Digitizing Axis' position data
MC_MachRegist Runs Mark-to-Machine registration
MC_MarkRegist Runs Mark-to-Mark registration
MC_MoveAbsolute Performs a single-axis move to a specified endpoint position
MC_MoveAdditive Performs a single-axis move for a specified distance from the endpoint of the previous move
MC_MoveRelative Performs a single-axis move for a specified distance
MC_MoveSuperimp Performs a single-axis move which is superimposed upon the active move
MC_MoveVelocity Performs a single-axis non-ending move at a specified velocity
MC_Phasing Performs a master position phase shift for the slave axis
MC_Power Requests to enable the drive and close the loop, or disable the drive and open the loop
MC_ReadActPos Reads the actual position of the axis
MC_ReadActVel Reads the actual velocity of the axis
MC_ReadAxisErr Returns the error status of the specified axis
MC_ReadBoolPar Returns the value of the specified Boolean axis parameter
MC_ReadParam Returns the value of the specified axis parameter
MC_ReadStatus Returns the state of the specified axis
MC_Reference Defines the position at the reference location for PLCopen Axis
MC_RemSuperAxis Remove an axis from the axis's list of assigned, superimposed axes.
MC_ResetError Resets the errors of the specified axis
MC_SetOverride Writes velocity and acceleration override factors
MC_SetPosition Deprecated by MC_SetPos
MC_SetPos Sets a new axis position
MC_Stop Aborts the active move, removes the next move from the queue, performs a controlled stop, and switches the axis to Stopping state
MC_StopRegist Turns off registration for the specified axis
MC_SyncSlaves Specifies synchronized slaves
MC_TouchProbe Arm a Fast InputClosedThe inputs are taken into account at each cycle depending on the system periodicity (for example each millisecond). Under certain circumstances this can be insufficient when more accuracy is needed, or if a quick response is required from the system. To fill the gap, a drive may have some Fast Input connections (generally one or two). When an event happens that triggers a Fast Input (e.g. when a sensor sends a rising edge), the detection of a signal occurs faster (which can be 1000 times more accurate than the system periodicity). Then the timestamp associated with this input can be provided to the IPC to take corrective action and capture an axis position
MC_WriteBoolPar Writes the specified axis Boolean parameter
MC_WriteParam Writes the specified axis parameter
