Position setpoint interface (Position mode)
In Position mode, the controller transmits a position setpoint cyclically to the servo in-
verter. The position actual value is read back by the servo inverter or a separate encod-
er.
In Position mode, the servo inverter follows the constantly changing position setpoint
and generates the required speed setpoint for the speed controller [2] from the position
actual value (from [5] or [6]). The time slices of the controller, the bus transmission and
the internal processing cycles of the servo inverter and of external encoders, if applica-
ble, must be synchronized to one another.
After the position in the controller has been referenced to the position in the servo invert-
er, the monitoring of permitted travel ranges or limit switches can be performed in the
servo inverter. Whether the settings of a load-dependent ramp specification and lag er-
ror monitoring in the servo inverter make sense must then be checked in detail.
To prevent unwanted, high acceleration values for larger control intervals (>1 ms), the
speed setpoint is not directly adopted by MOVIAXIS
®
, but interpolated linearly. This
means for a setpoint cycle of 5 ms that the controller sets the required position change
in the MOVIAXIS
®
not every 5ms as one large step, but rather as 5 small steps of 0.5ms.
