Period:
Periodic transition: If this option is activated , the CAM- associated mapping is
intended to be cyclic. That is, at the end position of the master the associated slave
position is a multiple of its value at the start position of the master, whereas the value
of slave velocity and acceleration equal their values at the start point.
Period: The slave period or feed rate is measured in units of the slave scale and can be
assigned by typing in the white rectangle following "Period:"
Continuity requirements:
The activation/deactivation of the check boxes (Position, Velocity, Acceleration, Jerk)
belonging to the continuity properties of the mapping has no impact on its editing.
However an activation will entail an examination of the editing, reporting eventual
violations of the continuity requirements in the message window (category "CAM").
Anyway, in case of the position mapping there is no way to edit jumps. The default
setting will require continuity of velocity and acceleration as well. They may be
omitted (for example in the special case of a mapping consisting of linear segments
only), what might lead to kinks of the position graph. By default, the jerk, that is the
fourth derivative, is not tested for jumps.
Compile format:
During compilation structure variables of type MC_CAM_REF are created. The
description of the CAM segments is according to one of the following options:
polynomial (XYVA): polynomial description on particular points consisting of master
position, slave position, slave velocity and slave acceleration.
one dimensional point array: 1-dimensional table of slave positions
two dimensional point array: 2-dimensional table of related master/slave positions
CNC Editor
CNC object settings, that are only relevant for the selected CNC object, can be set here.
A further description can be found in Properties of a CNC object.
CNC Settings
The application-wide CNC settings are stored in the CNC settings object. A further
description can be found in CNC Settings.

Default Shortcut: <Ctrl> + <Shift> + <F12>
This option (category 'View'), if activated, effects that the »PLC Designer« frame
window will be displayed in full-screen mode. To toggle back to the previous mode
deactivate the menu entry or press <Ctrl>+< Shift>+< F12>.
