Softmotion : Configure the software Forward Software Limit

  Dear,

 

In my application I used softmotion 10.0.0.1 and labView 2010 SP2.

 

I would like configure the software limit.

The software limits are set in the 'Trajectory Page (Axis Configuration)' on the axis propriety page.

The software limits change during my application.

I can't write theses limits with a propriety node.

 

How can I configure theses software limits, when the application is runnning?

 

  Regards

Hello Massif,

 

Are you using a cRIO interface to communicate with your drive? I think so.

 

In this case, your code is running on an FPGA. So if you change the limit configurations, you may rebuild you application into the FPGA. Even if you are using the Scan Engine, a code is built in the application. So even if you don't have to recompile, you need to stop the application and to start it again in order to your new parameters to be integrated.

Thank you Yann,

 

My compact Rio is in Hybride mode. I used the NI 9514 cards in active mode (i. e. Scan Engine mode).

 

There is no way to change the software limit during the code is runnning?

Or, should I restart each time in order to integrated the new parameter.

No you don't have to restart your hardware.

But you have to execute your application again to integrate those parameters.

 

Regards,

 

Yannick.

Thanks Yann.

 

I would like say restart the application.
