介绍
可编程限位开关（PLS）是在达到指定轴位置时触发系统输出的机构。softMC中的PLS实现具有以下特点：
- 多位置规格
- PLS模式重复
- 位置滞后
- 启用和禁用PLS
- 输出可以是数字或模拟的
本文详细说明在softMC中PLS实现的功能。 描述功能并定义支持的命令。
定义
PLS – 可编程限位开关
PLS – 在PLS命令中指定的位置，其输出状态被切换。
Digital output – 可以映射到位于运动总线上的设备，驱动器输出中的任一个或 EtherCAT/CAN I/O模块。
(固件版本5.0及更高版本不支持本地; 它只支持传统的SERCOS II运动控制器。)
Soft output – 32个虚拟输出之一
PLS位置在数组中定义，允许您更改PLS位置的各个值。这个数组必须单调增加。 定义的位置数量和PLS数量没有限制。初始输出极性由Pls Polarity 指定。当PLS被使能时，输出状态被设置。
PLS功能描述
PLS极性
The output polarity is determined via the polarity property of the PLS. This property determines the output polarity of the first entry of the PLS position table i.e. in the segment between the first and second entries. If the actual location of the axis is elsewhere, the output polarity will be determined accordingly so when the axis will reach the first segment the polarity will be as indicated.
For example: consider the following PLS whose positions are 10, 25, 30, 50, 65, and polarity is 0, as shown in this figure.
As can be seen, the polarity of the first segment (between 10-25) is as indicated by the polarity (1). Enabling the PLS in any other segment will cause the output to be as indicated in the figure.
Output State
A PLS causes an output (digital or virtual) to be triggered when a specified axis position is reached. The initial state of the output will be determined by the PLS polarity property. When the position is reached, the state of the output is toggled. The state is also toggled each time the position is reached, irrespective of the direction of motor travel.
Multiple positions may be specified, in which case the state of the digital output will be toggled as each position is reached. For example, consider the following PLS specification: positions 100 and 200 are specified, and the initial state of the digital output after enabling is 0. The following table illustrates how the state of output changes with changing position.
| Position | Output State |
| 0 | 0 |
| 100 | 1 (Toggle) |
| 150 | 1 (No change) |
| 200 | 0 (Toggle) |
| 210 | 0 (No change yet) |
| 200 | 1 (Toggle again) |
| 150 | 1 (No change) |
| 100 | 0 (Toggle again) |
If the axis position were to oscillate around a specified PLS position, the output would be triggered each time the specified position was crossed.
The initial output state is specified implicitly by the user. The output is set to this state when the PLS is enabled.
PLS Position Data
The PLS position data is stored in a data structure that belongs to the PLS mechanism. This data structure is explicitly created, using the CreatePlsData command.
The PLS data has read/write access. The user must ensure that the PLS position data is monotonic (to allow a PLS to be enabled).
Hysteresis
If the axis were to stop on a specified PLS position, the state of the digital output may be continually toggled, due to slight instability in the actual axis position. In this case, a hysteresis value may optionally be specified. The output state will be toggled when the PLS position is reached, and is passed by the hysteresis value. If, as shown in this example, the hysteresis value is 10, then the output will change from Low to High at position 110. It will revert to Low when the position goes down to 90.
Repetition Interval
PLS positions may be continually repeated at a specified interval. Thus if a PLS position of 100, for example, is specified with a repetition interval of 2000, then the output state will be toggled at 100, and again at 2100, 4100, and so on, in the positive direction, and at -1900, -3900, and so on in the negative direction.
The repetition interval must be positive, and it must be greater than the absolute value difference between the least and greatest PLS position values. That is:
Repetition Interval > abs(PLS_Pos_Max - PLS_Pos_Min)
Example:
- PLS Position values: -300, 100, 200
- Repetition Interval: 2000
- Polarity: 0
The output state will be toggled at -300, 100, 200, as well as at 1700 (-300 + 2000), 2100 (100+2000), 2200, and at 3700 (-300 + 2000 + 2000) etc. In the negative direction, the output state will be toggled at -1800 (200 - 2000), -1900 (100 - 2000), -2300 (-300 - 2000), -3800 etc.
PLS Constraints
- The number of PLSes is not be limited by the system. It is understood that there is a direct tradeoff between the number of PLSes defined and the system performance.
- The number of PLS positions defined per PLS is not be limited.
- More than one PLS may be defined per axis.
- PLSes are scanned at the motion bus cycle rate.
Enable and Disable
After being defined, a PLS is disabled (output pattern is not generated). The output is set when the PLS is enabled. The output is set to the defined initial state. PLS properties are changed only when the PLS is disabled. Each enabled PLS requires CPU resources. Conserve those resources by disabling the unused PLS(s). PLSEnable controls the status of the PLS:
MyPLS.PlsEnable = ON | OFF
PLSENABLE queries the status of a PLS:
?MyPls.PlsEnable if(MyPLS.PlsEnable = OFF) . . .
or drives events:
EventOn MyEvent MyPLS.PlsOutput = ON
PLS Output State
Query the digital output associated with the PLS to query the state of the PLS output.
For example, assume the PLS output is assigned to
SYSTEM.DOUT.1. To determine the output state of the PLS, query the state
of SYSTEM.DOUT.1:
-->?Sys.Dout.1 0 | 1
Example
Step 1
Declare the PLS with COMMON SHARED <PLS name> AS PLS in Config.Prg or at the terminal. You must name the PLS, specify the axis that drives the PLS, and name an output to be controlled by the PLS. For example:
Common Shared MyPLS as PLS A1 System.Dout.1
sets up MyPLS as a PLS driven by axis A1 connected to SYSTEM.DOUT.1. The output can be a digital output (SYSTEM.DOUT.1 through DOUT.20) or it can be one of the virtual outputs (SYSTEM.VOUT.1 through VOUT.32). After the Common Shared as PLS executes, the PLS is disabled. Properties of the PLS are set as:
- A single PLS position exists at 0.
- The initial output polarity is 1.
- PLSREPEAT is set to 0.
- The hysteresis is set to 0.
These properties may be set explicitly, as long as the PLS remains disabled. You can check which output is associated with a given PLS using PLSOUTPUT.
Step 2
Create the PLS data structure and define PLS positions. The number of defined positions is not explicitly limited. A call to CreatePlsData creates an array of n positions that stores the position data. The array is 1- based and an error is generated if you attempt to access an index outside of the array bounds. For example:
CreatePLSData 4 MyPLS MyPLS.PLSPosition[1] = 1000 MyPLS.PLSPosition[2] = 1100
As a short form, you can use PPOS in place of PlsPosition :
MyPLS.Ppos[3] = 2000 MyPLS.Ppos[4] = 2200
You cannot change PLS positions when the PLS is enabled. Position values must be increasing monotonically.
Step 3
Set the polarity. PLSPOLARITY defaults to OFF, indicating the PLS state should be OFF after the first position. Change PlsPolarity to ON to invert the state.
MyPLS.PLSPolarity = ON
Change PlsPolarity only if the PLS is disabled.
Step 4
Set PlsRepeat . If you want the PLS to repeat, set the value of PLSREPEAT to a non-zero, positive number. For example, to have the PLS repeat every 10,000 position units, enter:
MyPLS.PLSRepeat = 10000
PLSREPEAT defaults to 0, indicating that there is no repetition. Change PLSREPEAT only when the PLS is disabled.
Step 5
Set PlsHysteresis, if the application requires it. Hysteresis is only necessary if the system does stop on or near a PLS position. Normally, a PLSHYSTERESIS of 5 or 10 counts of encoder (converted to position units) or 2 or 3 counts of resolver resolution is sufficient.
MyPLS.PLSHysteresis = 0.01
Step 6
Enable the PLS Enter:
MyPLS.PLSEnable = ON
There are a few other PLS functions you may need:
- Change Polarity
The default output state of a PLS is 0. Change this initial state by modifying PLSPOLARITY.
MyPLS.PLSPolarity = 1
The PLS must be disabled when changing this setting.
- Query the Name
Query the name of the axis driving the PLS: ? MyPLS.PLSAxisName
returns the axis associated with the PLS (A1).
- Disable the PLS
Disable the PLS. For example: MyPLS.PLSEnable = OFF
You must disable a PLS to change PLS properties. Disabling a PLS also helps conserve CPU resources.
- Delete a PLS
Delete a PLS to remove it from the system only when the PLS is disable and there are no tasks in memory. For example:
DeletePLS MyPLS
