ASDA-A2  Chapter 7 Motion Control 
7-32     Revision February, 2017 
  Gear#1, the description is as follows: 
Function 
  Set the relativity of master axis and E-cam axis. 
E.g. The master axis operates one cycle; the E-cam axis is no 
need to operate one cycle. 
Description 
  E-cam axis is a virtual axis. 
  The E-cam axis operates one cycle (360 degrees) means the 
cam operates one cycle and the slave axis operates one 
cycle. 
  The pulse number is the unit of moving distance of the master 
axis. Its resolution is determined by the source. 
Setting Method 
P5-83: M 
P5-84: P 
  If the pulse number of master axis is P, the E-cam axis 
operates M cycle. 
Then, the setting of gear ratio is P5-83=M, P5-84=P 
  Cam, the description is as follows: 
Function 
  Set the relation between E-cam axis and slave axis and define it in 
the E-cam table. 
E-cam axis operates one cycle and the slave axis operates one 
cycle. 
Data Storage 
Address of E-
Cam table 
  Data array, the start address is set by P5-81 
Data Format 
  32-bit (It has positive and negative, user unit: PUU) 
E-Cam Curve 
Scaling 
P5-19 
0 ~ +/- 32.700 
  It is used to magnify (minify) the E-cam shape. 
  It equals to the value of data multiplies P5-19. 
  Switch the symbol, +/- will change the operation direction of 
slave axis. 
  If P5-19 is set to0, the E-cam command will not be outputted. (The 
setting will be 0 for good). 
Data Size 
  It is divided into N parts via P5-82 (> = 5) and does not exceed the 
limit of data array. It means 360 degrees a cycle of E-cam are 
divided into N areas. Each area is (360/N) degrees. 
Data Content 
  The position data of slave axis is saved in E-cam table. (User unit: 
PUU). 
  If E-cam is divided into N areas, the position of each area must be 
included in the table. It must set N+1 points in total. It is because 
the position of the first point (0 degree) and the final point (360 
degree) might not be the same.
