Returns TRUE if the CAM Profile is changed. See Function - General Rules. |
Remarks
- Can be used in combination with a comparator to verify profiles are switched at a time where the input and output values of both the old and new profiles are equal.
- This is so an Axis receives continuous position values and does not jump.
- These profiles are created and initiated separately and the shape is created with the CAM Editor.
- With the Editor, profiles can be changed graphically or by manually changing values in a numeric table relating input and output values with specific slopes.
- The CAM Editor is used to visualize, analyze, edit, and smooth profiles.
- See CAM Profile Switching for more information.
