Acceleration Profile Pane
The Acceleration Profile Pane, on the right bottom, displays the cam acceleration
in a graph.
• For a polynomial mode came, Ultraware software constrains the
accelerations to be zero at each segment endpoint.
• For a linear mode cam, the acceleration is zero within each segment, with
essentially infinite acceleration at the transitions from segment to segment
(unless two adjacent segments have the same velocity).
Accelerations are displayed in units of (output position counts per input count)
per input count. To determine the actual output acceleration of the cam, in
counts per second squared, the accelerations from the graph must be multiplied
by the square of the actual input velocity in counts per second.
The following direct commands can be executed for a Cam Table branch of an
online drive.
Command Description
Load in Memory Load in Memory makes the selected cam table the active cam
table in the drive. When cam is enabled, the selected cam table
begins executing.
Export Cam File Copies a cam file from the local drive and export it to a
computer file.
