Applications
They limit the functionality of the web server to
the web API based functions. This means that
only encrypted communication via HTTPS is
possible.
Save absolute encoder adjustment for device
replacement
The "MC_Home" instruction supports the new
"Incremental encoder adjustment" homing
mode.
Active homing of absolute encoders is possible. Extended scope of functions
Absolute encoder adjustment/incremental
encoder adjustment of non-operational
encoders.
The "MC_Power" instruction supports coasting-
down.
The hardware limit switches are configurable as
traversable/non-traversable.
For axes in a synchronous system, the dynamic
filter enables dynamic adaptation of axes with
higher dynamic responses to the axis with the
lowest dynamic response.
Stop superimposed movements on the axis
with the instruction "MC_HaltSuperimposed"
With the "MC_MotionInSuperimposed" instruc­
tion, you specify motion setpoints for the axis
that are determined cyclically by the application
for additional distance, velocity and accelera­
tion and are additive to the basic motion.
Velocity gearing
Synchronization in advance using leading value
distance starting from current leading value
position in camming
The S7-1500 CPU supports up to 64 configured
signals per trace.
Long-term trace: The S7-1500 CPU supports
cycle-granular recording of up to 64 different
tags in a .csv file over a long period (e.g. hours,
days).
Customer benefits
Higher security of communication via web server
Saving the adjustment values with the
"MC_SaveAbsoluteEncoderData" instruction saves
having to perform the absolute encoder adjust­
ment again after a device replacement.
Extended scope of functions
The function enables the transfer of actual values
of the operational encoder to a non-operational
encoder.
Extended scope of functions "MC_Power" instruc­
tion
Extended scope of functions
With the dynamic filter, axes with different inertia
can be adjusted to each other. Optimization of a
synchronous system
Use the instruction to stop a superimposed motion
independently of the basic motion.
By specifying superimposed motion setpoints, you
can optimize the motion profile of a basic motion.
Via a variable gear ratio, synchronous axes can fol­
low the velocity of a positioning axis.
Extended scope of functions
Number of configurable signals per trace extended
Better diagnostic possibilities when analyzing the
course of signals over a long period of time
