Hi guys!
I'm doing a project where 5 module axes, 0-360, and they are moved with CNC motion.
I use:
smc_smoothpath -> smc_extendedcheckvelocity -> smc_checkvelocities -> smc_interpolator and then smc_controlaxisbypos.
But I have a little question: can I set the direction of the axes in positive value?
If I set the movement from 350 to 5, it does a backwards movement, instead I would a forward movement.
Can anyone help me?
Cheers

Hi,
The user can specify a period for the axes A, B, C, P, Q, U, V and W by setting the word PA, PB, PC and so on. By default these are 0, which means: finite and not modulo.
e.g. N0 PA360 (this means that A has a period of 360 degree).
Then, the decoder will modify ist behaviour in the way, that the additional axes always travel tot he nearest point. E.g:
N0 PA360
N0 G92 A270 (set the position of A axis to 270)
N0 G1 A0
This will move the axis in positive direction.
The position output of the ipo is not in the interval [0..Periodlimit], but can be outside of it. However, the FBs like SMC_ControlAxisByPos will take care of making the modulo.

Thank you so much Edwin for your answer!
Anyway I don't use decoder but the other way "OutQueue".
Is it possbile to modify the direction from "shortest" to "positive" directly?
Thank you in advance.
