D.4 Table Stepper Motor (TSM)
The TSM function provides for acceleration and deceleration control of a stepper mo-
tor with a programmable number of step rates up to 58. TSM uses a table in parameter
RAM, rather than an algorithm, to define the stepper motor acceleration profile, allow-
ing full defininition of the profile. In addition, a slew rate parameter allows fine control
of the terminal running speed of the motor independent of the acceleration table. The
CPU need only write a desired position, and the TPU accelerates, slews, and deceler-
ates the motor to the required position. Full and half step support is provided for two-
phase motors. In addition, a slew rate parameter allows fine control of the terminal run-
ning speed of the motor independent of the acceleration table. See Motorola TPU Pro-
gamming Note
