The basic idea of LinMot
as possible in order to free the higher-level control systems from unnecessary and
calculation-intensive ballast. The system configuration is therefore accordingly simple,
as the higher-level control system just outputs the actual target value and monitors some
feedback information. The following sections will implicitly refer to LinMot
motors as actuators when no specific indication is provided. In this case the target value
consists in the position set value to which the drives should move, while the feedback
information typically represents a following error message. In the case of stepper motors
and electromagnets these statements can be interpreted by analogy.

system from calculation intensive tasks.
Different modes of operation are available to the user. These allow optimal embedding
of the actuators in the control concept of the machine and the respective application. The

LinMot
AT software currently supports the following modes of operation:
•
direct digital reference value setting
•
setting two target values depending on a high/low signal
•
executing two predefined curves based on a trigger signal
•
continuous operation, e.g. periodical execution of a curve
In all these modes a filter can be connected in order to limit the derived signals like for
example the speed or acceleration. The following table shows typical application
examples for the different modes of operation.
