Alternating Cams
See the PLCopenMultiCAM.project
sample project in the installation directory of CODESYS under ..\CODESYS SoftMotion\Examples
.
This example demonstrates how a cam movement can be created with two alternating cams. The program is implemented in ST and executes the same actions as the "Cam Drive Control using a Virtual Time Axis" example. At the end of the first cam, the MC_CamIn
function block sets the EndOfProfile
output. In this way, the other curve table is assigned to MC_CamTableSelect
and MC_CamIn
is restarted.
