Motion.SetVirtualAxis method

Assigns the signals to link a simulated axis with real hardware.

Namespace: IntervalZero.KINGSTAR.OpcUa.Api

Assembly: IntervalZero.KINGSTAR.OpcUa.Api (in IntervalZero.KINGSTAR.OpcUa.Client.dll) Version: 4.4.0.0

Syntax

C#VB 
public KsError SetVirtualAxis(
       int Index,
       McVirtualAxis Axis
)
Public Function SetVirtualAxis(
       Index As Integer,
       Axis As McVirtualAxis
) As KsError

Parameters

Index

Type: int

The index of an axis. Indexes are zero based. Aliases affect this parameter.

 

Axis

Type: McVirtualAxis

The list of signals.

Return value

Type: KsError

A return code of a method.

Remarks

This method has two features:

  1. A simulated axis can be added after the KINGSTAR Subsystem is started by calling ConfigureAxis with Index = ServoCount.

  2. Linking a simulated axis to I/O signals allows the control of other devices. For example, a non-EtherCAT axis, a force control module, or a hydro control valve.
