Hi, i'm developing an application which requires alternating different cams of variable period.
Master axis is virtual and slave axis is physical of modulo 360°. Each cam executes exactly one rotation of the slave axis, which however can be standstill for a part of the cam profile.
Slave axis is always at constant speed when changing to the next cam.
I tried to set master axis as linear, and manually MC_Setposition to 0.0 at each cam EndOfProfile. This however generates a step in the slave position.
What would be the best way to handle this situation? I tried to look for an example but couldnt find anything.
Thanks!
