Continuous mode
In the case of continuous setpoint specification, an external
position setpoint is tracked. The setpoint values can be speci
fied by the PLC/via the fieldbus.
The continuous setpoint specification is only possible in di
rect operating mode and mainly corresponds with the free
profile.
Properties:
Speed, acceleration and deceleration are limited to values
specified by
the user (no automatic limitation).
It is possible to set the mass at the start of continuous
positioning mode.
General properties
The following generally applies for position control:
Setpoint values are filtered (low−pass) to smoothen"
jump−like changes.
Following error monitoring (signal, if following error is
greater than the monitoring window).
Monitoring of software end positions (end position limita
tion and warning).
