MLPmpRel

Description

This function is used to perform two subsequent relative moves. Using the MLPmpRel function block, the PMP Generator is capable of producing forward-backward motions with a non-stop, jerk In physics, jerk is the rate of change of acceleration; more precisely, the derivative of acceleration with respect to time-free transition through zero speed (see Figure below). This feature is frequently useful for linear axes which must move back and forward without any pause at one end.

This function can also be used to do a single relative move, ending in zero speed, by setting the DeltaSecond argument to zero (0.0). If it is done, for the controlling speed to be the first move, the “Last_Travel_Speed” parameter has to be set equal to or greater than the “First_Travel_Speed” parameter.

In general, the slower of the two “Speeds” is utilized to optimize the S-curve behavior for the move whether it is a 2 or 1 delta move.

If the DeltaSecond argument is non-zero, it must have the opposite sign than the sign of the DeltaFirst argument.
