Chapter 6 Programming Motion
Overview
The DMC-14XX provides several modes of motion, including independent positioning and jogging,
coordinated motion, electronic cam motion, and electronic gearing. Each one of these modes is
discussed in the following sections.
The DMC-1415 and DMC-1416 are single axis controllers and use X-axis motion only. The DMC-
1425 is a two axis controller and uses both X and Y.
The example applications described below will help guide you to the appropriate mode of motion. In
these examples the DMC-1415 and DMC-1416 may perform single moves only, while the DMC-1425
is capable of performing multiple axis moves.
Example Application
Mode of Motion
Commands
Absolute or relative positioning where each axis is
independent and follows prescribed velocity
profile.
Independent Axis Positioning
PA,PR
SP,AC,DC
Velocity control where no final endpoint is
prescribed. Motion stops on Stop command.
Independent Jogging
JG
AC,DC
ST
Motion Path described as incremental position
points versus time.
Contour Mode
CM
CD
DT
WC
2 axis coordinated motion where path is described
by linear segments.
Linear Interpolation
