SMC_PositionTracker (FB)¶

FUNCTION_BLOCK SMC_PositionTracker

This function block SMC_PositionTracker is designed to store positions and make it available to Path3D elements as a track. As long as bEnable is TRUE, the position is stored. bClear deletes the buffer. dX, dY, and dZ are containing the coordinates, which should be stored.

In contrast to the above function blocks that provide data to display an ideal contour, this one is designed to record the actual track. The visualization element Path3D is designed to show both, the ideal path, and the actual track.

InOut:

Scope	Name	Type	Initial	Comment

	`dX`	`LREAL`		Actual position to be added to the track.
	`dY`	`LREAL`
	`dZ`	`LREAL`
	`udiNumberOfPointsInArray`	`UDINT`	0	Number of points which are declared in `pBuffer` of the referred array.
	`pBuffer`	POINTER TO VisuStruct3DPathPoint		Pointer to the allocated array of points.
Output	`vs3dt`	`VisuStruct3DTrack`		Track output. To be setup as input of the visu element `Path3D`.
