Master velocity for calculations

 

 

(Setting (axis))

 

 

(Setting: None)

 

 

 

Gear ratio (relative)

If you activate this option, all calculations are based on

 

 

 

relative values (values relative to the master axis).

 

 

Use standard velocity

If you activate this option, the configured standard velocity

 

 

(Setting (axis))

of the axis which you specified under Accept from axis is

 

 

 

accepted. All calculations are based on absolute values.

 

 

User-defined

If you activate this option, you must enter a velocity under

 

 

 

V master. All calculations are based on absolute values.

 

 

V Master

If you activate user-defined, you must enter the master

 

 

(User-defined activated)

velocity under V master.

Slave tab

You specify here the simulation settings for the Slave tab.

You can set the following parameters:

Accept from axis

(Axis)

 

 

 

 

When you create the cam for an axis that already exists

 

 

 

 

in the project, you can select the axis here. The

 

 

 

 

configured values are taken over and displayed.

 

 

 

None

 

 

 

 

If you select None, you can specify all parameters.

Properties

 

 

 

(Setting: None)

 

 

 

Linear axis

If you select this option, you simulate the slave axis as a

 

 

 

linear axis.

 

Rotary axis

If you select this option, you simulate the slave axis as a

 

 

 

rotary axis.

 

Modulo rotary axis

If you select this option, you simulate the slave axis as a

 

 

 

modulo rotary axis.

 

Type

 

Here you select the axis type.

 

Unit of measure

Here you specify the unit of measure for the axis. Select a

 

 

 

unit of measure or enter the unit of measure. The

 

 

 

representation of the unit of measure is refreshed in the

 

 

 

diagrams when you click Accept or OK.

 

 

 

Note:

 

 

 

The unit of measure is only used for the display. If the unit

 

 

 

of measure is changed, the represented values are not

 

 

 

converted.
