Initiate
Cam.#.Initiate
Cam.#.Initiate has two forms - Program Instruction and Assignment (as a Destination). Both are used to initiate a specific Cam. For the
Destination, the Cam is initiated on the rising edge of this event. Using the Destination, a Cam cannot be initiated if there is an Index, Home,
Jog, or Program in progress, or if the Cam.#.Initiate is an instruction. If any motion is active, the program will hold on this instruction until that
motion is complete (unless it is run on a different profile).
Interpolation
Cam.#.Interpolation
This a Timed Index parameter. The Interpolation method to be used for the acceleration and deceleration portion of the timed Index.
Interpolation types are Square, S-Curve and Jerk.
Name
Cam.#.Name
The user can specify a cam name of up to 12 alphanumeric characters. This allows assigning a descriptive name to each cam table indicating
different machine operations.
Repeat
Cam.#.Repeat
This parameter specifies how many times in a row the cam table is to run before proceeding on to the next cam table as defined by Forward
Chain or Backward Chain text boxes. To repeat a single cam table forever use the Forward Chain and Backward Chain and set the chain value
to it own cam table number.
Table Limit
Cam.#.TableLimit
The cam table execution is limited to this value, so you can programmatically change the size of the cam table execution. On download and
restart, this is initialized to match the Cam.#.CamTableSize. If you attempt to set Cam.#.TableLimit > Cam.#.CamTableSize it will be set to the
maximum, Cam.#.CamTableSize.

Capture.#.CaptureActivate
If the Capture component is enabled and has been reset (CaptureTriggered is inactive), then the rising edge of CaptureActivate will capture
the four data parameters and cause CaptureTriggered to be activated. If the Capture component is not enabled, or has not been reset, the
CaptureActivate will be ignored.
Capture Clear
Capture.#.CaptureClear
This command may be used within a program to rearm the capture for the next cycle. This command can be used instead of Capture.#.Reset
destination which needs to be cleared after a control loop cycle to allow another reset.
Capture Enable
