Motion Control Instructions

Motion control instructions are used in the user program to execute motion controls for an NJ/NX-series
Controller. These instructions are defined as function blocks (FBs). The motion control instructions of
the MC Function Module are based on the technical specifications of function blocks for PLCopen
motion control. There are two types of motion control instructions: PLCopen
instructions that are unique to the MC Function Module. This section provides an overview of the PLCo-
®
pen motion control function blocks and gives the specifications of the MC Function Module.
Refer to the NJ/NX-series CPU Unit Software User's Manual (Cat. No. W501) for basic information on
the NJ/NX-series function blocks (FBs).
A CPU Unit with unit version 1.05 or later and Sysmac Studio version 1.06 or higher are required to use
NX-series Position Interface Units. Refer to the NX-series Position Interface Units User's Manual (Cat.
No. W524) for information on using the NX-series Position Interface Units.

PLCopen standardizes motion control function blocks to define a program interface for the languages
specified in IEC 61131-3 (JIS B 3503). Single-axis positioning, electronic cams, and multi-axes coordi-
nated control are defined along with basic procedures for executing instructions.
By using PLCopen
