Motion functions

This section contains a list of KINGSTAR Motion RT and Win32 APIs grouped in categories.

Usable EtherCAT states for Motion functions: ecatOP.

• Axis configuration – sets or gets the parameters for an axis, including the alias, position, velocity, torque, acceleration, deceleration, jerk, unit, PID, control mode, homing mode and movement.
• Axis control – controls the power of an axis, resets an axis, records the position of an axis, and use it to control a switch.
• Axis PTP motion – controls the movement of a single axis.
• Axis status – gets the current state of an axis, including the error, power, motion, homing states.
• Axis synchronized motion – synchronizes axes and moves them. The movement includes cam and gear motion.
  • Cam – controls cam movement.
  • Gear – controls gear movement.
• Axis variable – sets or gets a value of position, velocity, torque, input, and output from an axis.
• Group configuration – configures an axis group.
  • 3D coordinate transformation – transforms 3D coordinate systems.
• Group control – controls the working states, the override values of an axis group, and sets the positions of all axes in it.
• Group motion – controls the movement of an axis group.
  • Spline – creates a spline path for an axis group to move.
• Group status – gets the states of an axis group.
