Adding/editing/deleting tracks
After inserting an electrical shaft in the Project view, the »Cam Manager« contains a curve track with
the track number [0] for each axis in the interconnection.
If you right-click on a track in the »Cam Manager«, a Context menu opens by means of which you
can add further curve tracks, cam tracks and position tracks, etc., and delete existing tracks or edit
their properties:
Tip!
By clicking the
button under the Tracks column, you can insert further curves, cams
and positions.
Changing properties of a track
The
Object settings ... command (in the context menu of the object in question) opens the
Properties dialog box which serves to display and also edit the properties of the track:
Tip!
Several tracks for an axis can be used if:
• several motion profiles, cams or position markers are to be processed at the same time
in the application.
• a change of the cam data is individually required at a cam FB (triggered by the product
changeover).
