The SMC-4/8DF series are equipped with bank memory.
・A group of operation setting parameters such as travel distance, speed, acceleration/deceleration time, etc. are treated as one bank (frame),
A maximum of 1024 banks (1024 frames) per axis of multiple consecutive banks can be saved in the internal memory of the board.
After executing the operation start from the application, it will automatically operate from the 2nd frame by the hardware side function.
・Since the various operation settings for each bank are performed by hardware, the idling time when switching to the next operation is almost zero.
Therefore, a highly efficient system can be constructed.
・Combined with multi-axis synchronous control, multi-axis continuous interpolation control is possible.
There are two types of bank operation.
If the total number of banks set by SmcWSetBankNumber is N,
- Single
It operates continuously from 1 to N banks, and ends when the Nth bank is completed.
- Loop
After continuous operation from 1 to N banks, operation starts automatically from the 1st bank again.
It will loop forever from 1 to N banks until you stop it.
