CAM Structure
The CAM data type consists of slave and master point pairs, as well as an interpolation type. Because there is no association with a specific axis position or time, the point values are unitless. Specify the interpolation type for each segment as either linear or cubic. This table describes the format of the cam array element:
Mnemonic | Data Type | Description |
MASTER | REAL | The x value of the point. |
SLAVE | REAL | The y value of the point. |
Segment Type | DINT | The type of interpolation 0 = linear 1 = cubic |
TIP:
You cannot convert the CAM data type to CAM_EXTENDED, and you cannot convert the CAM_EXTENDED data type to CAM.
