The implementation of interpolated position mode allows synchronous operation only, where a
fixed, common interpolation interval is defined. The time specified must always be an integer
multiple of the control loop cycle time. The time period index has a minimum value of -6 (i.e. the
smallest time unit will be microseconds), see Table 7-53 for more information.

The time period is checked to ensure that it is an integer multiple of the control loop cycle time. Only
linear interpolation is currently supported, this type inserts a delay of one interpolation time period.
The input buffer has a maximum size of 1 data record, and a data record contains one position in
profile-defined units. The buffer is a FIFO buffer. On each interpolator time period, a value is read
from this buffer. The correct number of data points for a specific interpolation mode are stored
internally. When a new position command is loaded in, the oldest position command in the data set
is discarded.

vl velocity mode
Velocity mode is supported on Unidrive M200 and above. It is not, however, supported in regen
modes.
When the drive is in either of the RFC-A or RFC-S operating modes the scaled velocity is written to
the drive internal speed shortcut. When the drive is in an open-loop operating mode the scaled
velocity is written to the user preset reference parameter (Pr 01.021). Table 7-54 lists the objects
that are supported:
