On-The-Fly Adjustments
There are three types of on-the-fly adjustments that can be performed: Shift, Offset, and Scale. These adjustments are shown in the camming block diagram in this section. If the application has multiple slaves, note that adjustments are made only to individual slaves, as each slave has its own copy of the master data. For example, a CamShift for slave #1, will not affect Slave #2 unless the same function with the same shift amount is executed for Slave #2.
All adjustments can be made in three ways, based on the data configured in the Adjustmode input of the function.
• Over a relative change in position of the master
• Over time
• To start and complete between two specified master positions
If the master is outside the range when the block executes, the adjustment will wait until the master crosses into the range. If the master is already within the range when the block executes, the adjustment will stat immediately.
For all cases, the correction is governed by a modified sine progression from 0 to 100% of the correction. This provides a smooth for the slave.
