CMPx.SETPOINT

Description

Use this keyword to set the position value for a Compare setpointClosedSetpoint is the target value that an automatic control system, for example PID controller, will aim to reach. This position value will be compared against a Compare source (CMPx.SOURCE). If they match, an output pulse is generated. A setpoint also requires a width (CMPx.WIDTH) and width type (CMPx.WIDTHTYPE).

A setpoint must be armed (CMPx.ARM) before it is active. If a setpoints value, width, or width type are changed after it has been armed, that setpoint will be automatically disarmed.

Example

The following example sets the value of setpoint 1 to one billion for CMP1.

-->CMP1.SETPOINT 1 1000000000

Hardware Supported

Compare functionality is supported on hardware revisions D, DB, DA, and higher depending on the drive type. Check the label on the side of the drive to ensure the AKD meets one of the following requirements.

AKD Type Hardware Revision Supported
AKD Revision D or higher
AKD PDMM Revision DB or higher
AKD-T-ICClosed"Integrated Circuits" Miniaturized electronic circuits (consisting mainly of semiconductor devices, as well as passive components) that have been manufactured in the surface of a thin substrate of semiconductor material Revision DA or higher

Variants Supported

*In SynqNetClosedSynqNet is a digital machine control network. Built on the 100BT physical layer, SynqNet provides a synchronous real-time connection between motion controllers, servo drives, stepper drives, I/O modules, and custom devices, a parameter may be available in the firmware but have no effect on the system.

EtherCATClosed***EtherCAT is an open, high-performance Ethernet-based fieldbus system. The development goal of EtherCAT was to apply Ethernet to automation applications which require short data update times (also called cycle times) with low communication jitter (for synchronization purposes) and low hardware costs COE and CANopen
