Remarks
- See Function Blocks - General Rules about how inputs and outputs work.
- Returns an ID to be used with MC_CamIn.
- See Main for information about how this function block is used in the Hole punch project.
Usage
- Each positive transition of the Enable input creates a unique Cam ID and store the profile information in a table.
- The number of unique Cam IDs is limited to 256.
- If the application attempts to create more than 256 Cam IDs:
- The Error output is TRUE.
- The ErrorID output is
22(Too Many Profiles).
- It is only necessary to call MC_CamTblSelect once for each Profile/Periodic/MasterAbsolute/SlaveAbsolute configuration to be used.
- The Periodic input selects if the profile is to repeat each cycle.
- If the profile is not periodic and the master axis moves beyond the profile range, the slave stops at the end of the profile.
- If the master axis moves back into the profile range, the slave resumes following the profile.
- If the MasterAbsolute input is ON, the profile is in reference to the Master axis position.
- If the MasterAbsolute input is OFF, the profile is in reference to the Master axis position at the time the MC_CamIn function block is executed.
- The SlaveAbsolute input selects if the slave positions are in reference to the Slave axis position or the Slave axis position at the time the MC_CamIn function block is executed.
- If the SlaveAbsolute input is set to TRUE, the axis jumps back to the starting position.
- If the SlaveAbsolute input is set to FALSE, the axis no longer jumps back.
- Instead, as the profile repeats, the slave moves relative to the start of each period.

(* MC_CamTblSelect ST example *) //call this function block every scan until "Done"
Inst_MC_CamTblSelect(DoSelect, 'Profileb', TRUE, TRUE, TRUE ); //Inst_MC_CamTblSelect is instance of MC_CamTblSelect
CamSelDone := Inst_MC_CamTblSelect.Done; //store Done output to user defined variable
IF CamSelDone = TRUE THEN//when function block is "done" store
CamTableID := Inst_MC_CamTblSelect.CamTableID; //CamTableID in user defined variable
