Example Code

Stringing multiple move types together using the NI SoftMotion Development Module

Code and Documents

Attachment

Functional Description

This example shows you how to generate a move in NI Softmotion that consists of a straightline move followed by a contoured move. The straight line move and the contoured move are very different moves, so this exmple demonstrates how you might go about performing a straightline move and a contoured move in the same program.

Caveats and Additional Notes

Program written in LabVIEW 8.6.1 using NI SoftMotion Development Module 2.2

Hope this helps.

Contour motion ignores move constraints for axis. Is it normal?

Is this example is in the LV version 8.5, with SoftMotion 2.1?
