Applications and modes which should be set
Various SL master, dispatcher and slave modes can be set by
appropriately configuring SIMOLINK.
For
position-synchronous
actual value sensing and setpoint input (e.g.
“virtual shaft” for printing or packaging machines), the
jitter-free
(equidistant in time) modes should be set
•
External mode (Mode 4),
•
Interrupt automatic mode (Mode 3) and
•
External cyclic mode (Mode 5)
•
Cyclic automatic mode (mode 10) and
(refer to the SIMOLINK function block description @SL).
For the mode 3, 5 and 10, the telegram data of the previous bus cycle are
processed in parallel to the bus cycle and equidistant SIMOLINK
telegrams are sent and received. This allows the shortest SIMOLINK
cycles to be configured. Ideally, this technique is suitable for applications
with “
virtual shaft with values which uniformly change
”, which are
required, for example, for printing machines.
