Figure 8-2 Software cams for linear axis (plus cam < minus cam)
Modulo rotary axes
The switching edges of the cam signals are generated as a function of the rotary axis
traversing direction:
● The plus cam signal switches from 0 to 1 when the axis traverses the minus cam in a
positive axis direction and from 1 back to 0 when it traverses the plus cam.
● The minus cam signal changes level in response to every positive edge of the plus cam
signal.
Note
The described response of the plus cam applies on conditionthat:
plus cam - minus cam < 180 degrees
