InterpolationHandler
INFORMATION
Can only be used if the "Interpolation" function is activated in the "Basic settings" configuration menu under "Functions used" and a valid license is available for the add-on.
The Camming mode offers the possibility to interpolate curve descriptions from curve point tables. The curve point table can be available in a source file or can be read from the IEC program. See application example Creating curve description from curve point table.
A defined segment in a curve description is configured for the interpolation of a curve point table. Subsequently, the user can use this curve description as well as the curve descriptions that are configured by importing a curve profile created with the Cam Editor. All functions of MOVIKIT® MultiMotion Camming can be used.
To operate the function, the InterpolationHandler structure is available in the FileHandling structure. Automatic code generation also creates the following instances for each axis that uses the function:
- PointsList_AxisName of the type PointsList
- The curve point table is stored in this structure if the interpolation method is "LINEAR" or "POLYNOM_3". The structure comprises up to 1024 pairs of curve points.
- PointsListSpline_AxisName of the type PointsListSpline
- The curve point table is stored in this structure if the interpolation method is "SPLINE". The structure comprises up to 64 pairs of curve points.
Additionally, the following interface connections are made:
