10.10 Simulating
Definition
The "Simulation" setting allows you to activate the cam controller with open encoder
connections.
Programming steps
1. Set the simulation velocity at the parameter DB.
2. Write and enable machine data.
3. Set either a positive or negative simulation direction at the channel DB.
4. Set the function switch in the channel DB.
Data used in the channel DB
Address Name Type Start value Comment
15.2 DIR_M BOOL FALSE 1 = simulation in negative direction
15.3 DIR_P BOOL FALSE 1 = simulation in positive direction
34.1 SIM_ON BOOL FALSE 1 = simulation on
Data used in the parameter DB
Address Name Type Start value Comment
84.0 SIM_SPD DINT L#0 Simulation velocity
Effects when simulation mode is activated
● Encoder signals will be ignored.
● The encoder input monitoring functions are disabled.
● All encoder errors reported will be reset.
● FM 352 simulates axis motion at a constant simulation velocity.
● Cam processing is disabled while simulation mode is active. However, you can then
enable these operations again. Synchronism will be retained in this case.
● Starting at the current actual value, the actual position value changes dynamically based
on the simulation velocity and direction.
