Simulated Axes

An axis can be declared simulated by setting <axis>.simulated to 1.

Simulated axis returns the same number of counts in feedback (CFB) as was given by command (CCMD).

NOTE-Info.svgNOTE
Position error (PE) of a simulated axis is not always zero. The non-zero value can be due to:
  • Integer to float conversion (especially with very small PFAC) values.


NOTE-Info.svgNOTE
Since firmware Version 4.7.2, propagation delay of a simulated axes is accessible through these two user functions:
import_c sercSetSimulDelay(byval as long , byval as long  ) as long
import_c sercGetSimulDelay(byval as long , as long ) as long
