10.5.3 Positioning mode, M19, M19 through several revolutions
• If the PLC detects the auxiliary function M19 it can prevent the block change by
cancellation of the READ-IN ENABLE.
• If M19 is reselected before a previous M19 has terminated with the signal "Acknowledge
M19", the new spindle position is adopted by the function. The NC moves to the new
position by the shortest path regardless of the set direction of rotation. The spindle path is
smaller than 180° regardless of the closed-loop control characteristic.
10.5.3.5 Gain factor change
Gain factor change
In the positioning mode it must be possible to drive the spindle to a target position from full
speed under position feedback control. The spindle must be held at the target position even
when there is drift.
To ensure that the spindle is steady at rest, even in the presence of drift, very small set
speeds with very high resolution must be given to the drive actuator via the analog interface.
The speed setpoints are transferred as voltage signals via the analog interface between control
system and drive actuator. Under some circumstances the control behaviour can be improved
by increasing the voltage level (relative to the set speed) because it enables a higher
resolution to be achieved and the analog interference noise can be reduced.
Consequently, with some drive actuators, such as the SIMODRIVE 650, a different scaling for
the set speeds (voltage levels) can be selected by applying a configurable terminal signal.
This changing of the scaling in the drive actuator must be allowed for in the control so that,
overall, the effective gain factor remains the same. The gain factor (dependent on gear ratio,
MD 435* to 442*) must be adapted to the new scaling.
The factor for gain changing is entered as machine data. The value is calculated from:
MD 469* = where N = scaling factor in the drive actuator
1
N
Changing of the gain factor must be initiated by the PLC user program with the interface signal
CHANGE GAIN FACTOR (DW K + 1, bit 15).
The diagram below is intended to illustrate the changeover process using SIMODRIVE 650 as
an example.
