Danaher Motion 06/2005 Master-Slave
Set the proportional constant between the master and slave with
<axis>.GEARRATIO:
A1.GearRatio = 0.5
'Slave goes half the speed of master
GEARRATIO is a double-precision floating-point number that is set to less
than zero to reverse the direction of the slave.
5.2.3. Incremental Moves
The MC supports incremental moves with gearing. The profile of the slave
axis is the sum of two profiles: the gearing profile and the profile of the
incremental move:
You can use incremental moves with and without gearing. Issuing an
absolute move with gearing enabled generates an error. If you issue STOP to
a geared axis executing incremental moves, gearing is turned off
immediately and the velocity commanded from gearing ramps to zero at
<axis>.DECELERATIONMAX. However, the termination of the incremental
move profile and subsequent launch of JOG is subject to <axis>.STOPTYPE.
Issuing JOG when gearing with an incremental move is similar to issuing
JOG with just gearing. The main difference is that the launch of the JOG
profile is subject to <axis>.STARTTYPE. If STARTTYPE is IMMEDIATE
(IMMED) or SUPERIMMEDIATE (SIMM), the jog begins immediately. The
speed from the incremental move ramps up or down to the specified jog
speed according to either <axis>.DEC or <axis>.ACC. If STARTTYPE is
GCOM, SYNC or INPOS, the jog profile is delayed.
The following example issues JOG with an immediate start
(STARTTYPE=IMMEDIATE).
Jog A1 100 TimeJog=5000
Sleep 2000
A1.StartType=IMMED
Jog A1 200
The resulting profile is:
