Programming process of motion control
The basic process of motion control programming using our high functionality motion control driver is as follows: Initialization processing → Initial settings → Basic movement settings → Motion start/stop processing → Finalization processing. Various motion control process is easily realized by utilizing embedded high performance functions.
Basic movement programming example of motion control
Basic movement of motion control such as PTP, JOG, ORG (origin return) movement programming used for this programming is briefly explained.
