The following example demonstrates how to create and use a CAM table.
Refer to Axis Setup Procedure for an explanation and an example of how to set up an axis.

'**********************************************************************************************************
' File:			CAM_MOVE.PRG
' Purpose:		Move two axes with CAM table and master-slave
' Version:		1.00
' Author:		Nir Geller
' Description:	This is an example of use of a CAM table. Initialize a CAM table with a sinus function character,
'				and set master - slave relations between two axes. Move the master axis and see how the slave axis
'				follows according to the cam table.
'
'				Record or watch the PFB of AX_MASTER and AX_SLAVE.
'
'**********************************************************************************************************

'Declaring a cam-table type global variable:
common shared CamTable1 as cam

program

	call SetCAM

 
	attach AX_MASTER
	attach AX_SLAVE

 
	'call EC_SET_MOTION_OPMODE(AX_MASTER, POSITIONMODE)

 
	AX_MASTER.en=1
	AX_SLAVE.en=1
 
	sleep 1000
 
	while 1
 
		MOVE AX_MASTER 1000 vcruise=1000 starttype=immediate abs = 1

 
		while AX_MASTER.IsMoving <> 0
			sleep 1000
		end while
 

 
		MOVE AX_MASTER 0 vcruise=1000 starttype=immediate abs = 1

 
		while AX_MASTER.IsMoving <> 0
			sleep 1000
		end while
 
 
	end while
 
	detach AX_MASTER
	detach AX_SLAVE

end program

sub SetCAM

	dim camsize as long = 10000
	dim cam_amplitude as long = 100
	dim i as long = 0

	'Creating an empty cam table:
	'This table is cyclic:
	CamTable1.Cycle = -1

	'Not linked to any other cam-tables:
	CamTable1.Next = none
	CamTable1.Prev = none

	'Making it 10000 points
	createcamdata camsize CamTable1

	'Defining a 360 deg sine table:
	for i = 1 to CamTable1.Size 
		CamTable1.MasterData [i] = 360*(i-1)/CamTable1.Size ' Master in degrees
		CamTable1.SlaveData  [i] = cam_amplitude *sin (CamTable1.MasterData [i] * pi/180)
	next

	'Store the newly created file onto flash disk:
	storecamdata ct1.cam CamTable1

	'Once the table is stored on the flash it can be reloaded as:
	'loadcamdata ct1.cam CamTable1

	print "CAM table set"

	attach AX_MASTER
	attach AX_SLAVE

		AX_SLAVE.MasterSource = AX_MASTER.PCMD
		AX_SLAVE.GearRatio = 1.0
		AX_SLAVE.CamOffset = 0 
		AX_SLAVE.FirstCam  = CamTable1 
		AX_SLAVE.slave     = cam

	detach AX_MASTER
	detach AX_SLAVE

	print "Master-Slave relation set"

end sub


The example corresponds to commit SHA-1: 6b843ca272c3e3d28d36d7116ba9812f4166d97f in GIT.
