Features
The Motion Control Function Module (sometimes abbreviated to “MC Function Module”) is a software
function module that is built into the CPU Unit. The MC Function Module can perform motion control for
up to 64 axes through the EtherCAT port that is built into the CPU Unit. Cyclic communications are per-
formed with Servo Drives that are connected to the EtherCAT port to enable high-speed, high-precision
machine control.
The motion control instructions of the MC Function Module are based on motion control function blocks
that are standardized by PLCopen. These instructions allow you to program single-axis PTP position-
ing, interpolation control, synchronized control (e.g., of electronic cams), velocity control, and torque
control. You can set the velocity, acceleration rate, deceleration rate, and jerk each time a motion con-
trol instruction is executed to flexibly control operation according to the application.
Additional Information
• PLCopen
PLCopen is an association that promotes IEC 61131-3. It has its headquarters in Europe and a
world-wide membership. PLCopen standardizes function blocks for motion control to define a
program interface for the languages specified in IEC 61131-3 (JIS B 3503).
• Jerk
Jerk is the rate of change in the acceleration rate or deceleration rate. If you specify the jerk, the
velocity graph will form an S-curve for acceleration and deceleration.
The MC Function Module can be combined with OMRON G5-series Servo Drives with built-in EtherCAT
communications to enable exchange of all control information with high-speed data communications.
The various control commands are transmitted via data communications. That means that the Servo-
motor's operational performance is maximized without being limited by interface specifications, such as
the response frequency of the encoder feedback pulses. You can use the Servo Drive's various control
parameters and monitor data on a host controller to unify management of system information.
Additional Information
What Is EtherCAT?
EtherCAT is an open high-speed industrial network system that conforms to Ethernet (IEEE
802.3). Each node achieves a short cycle time by transmitting Ethernet frames at high speed. A
mechanism that allows sharing clock information enables high-precision synchronized control
with low communications jitter.
