Continuing the Motion Application

After setting up and tuning the RMC, it is ready to perform motion and

be integrated into the rest of your application. The RMC has numerous

features to assist you. The major components are listed here to guide

you when continuing your motion application.

Commands

The RMC has a rich set of pre-programmed commands that perform

anything from simple moves to complex motion to system control. For

a list of all the commands, see the Command List topic in the

RMCTools help.

User Programs

A User Program carries out simple or advanced sequences of

commands on the RMC. This allows the RMC to respond to events

within its control-loop time rather than the scan rate of a PLC or other

host controller. It also reduces the PLC programming required.

A User Program consists of multiple steps linked together in

sequences. Each step can issue any RMC command to one or several

axes. The link types allow branching and looping, waiting for

conditions and many other features. Simple and complex

mathematical operations are also possible in the user program.

A User Program runs on a task. Each task can run one user program at

a time. The RMC70 has four tasks. Therefore, an RMC70 controller

may run up to four User Programs simultaneously.

For details on creating and running User Programs, see the User

Programs topic in the help.
