Oscilloscope Tool
The Oscilloscope tool in Zaber Console is used for reading
and displaying information from devices over time. A variety of
information can be read, such as the expected position based
on the trajectory planner, the actual position based on encoder
feedback, and the temperature of the motor or driver. Plotting
the first two (the expected and measured positions) during a
movement can be useful in assessing the effectiveness of different
servo tuning parameters; it can show performance such as rise
time, overshoot, settling time, and steady-state error.
You can access the Oscilloscope tool by selecting it from Zaber
Console’s Tab Dock or by pressing the Open Oscilloscope button
in the Servo Tuning tool.
