CR#10001:
Read E-CAM status
[Explanations]
The function is used to read current E-CAM status when E-CAM is executing. Only DFROM instruction is
applicable for this function. The read data will be as follows:
Parameters Data Format
Explanations
P1 Current position of Master
Integer
Reset at DOG signal
P2 Length of Master 1 Integer DOG signal to DOG signal
P3 Current E-CAM curve Integer
P4 Current position of Slave Integer Updated at DOG signal
P5 Error of Slave
Integer
Error between DOG signal and the end point of
CAM cycle.
P6 Length of Master 2 Integer START0/PG0 signal to START0/PG0 signal
P7 Error of Master
Integer
Error between START0, PG0 signal and the end
point of CAM cycle
The function of reading E-CAM status can be applied in offset compensation to Slave error. For the methods of
Slave error compensation, please refer to 9.4.2.5.
