For the SF=50 graph, the smoothing is so strong with respect to total acceleration

time that the AC acceleration is never reached.

The profiler smoothes the motion and decreases (and may also prevent)

overshoots. The price is the introduction of delay in the controller response.

3.3.2

Acceleration Limiting and Switch Logic

The limiting logic performs the following functions:

Brings the motor to a stop upon a software or hardware ST command.
Brings the motor to a stop when the speed demand is positive and FLS (Forward

Limit Switch) is active.

Brings the motor to a stop when the speed demand is negative and RLS (Reverse

Limit Switch) is active.

Prevents acceleration or deceleration beyond the SD (stop deceleration) limits.

The parameters relevant to the stop manager are:

Parameters Description

SD

Maximum motor acceleration/deceleration, in counts/second

2

VL[2], VH[2]

Speed command limit

IL[N]

Input logic: defines digital inputs as hard stop or as direction limit
switches (RLS or FLS)

Table 3-4: Stop Manager Parameters

The acceleration limiter prevents the speed controller command from changing abruptly
by limiting the rate of reference change to SD counts/second

2

. When the motor stops due

to a switch action, a zero command is placed at the input to the acceleration limiter. The
motor is brought to complete stop using the SD deceleration.
