L_SMC_SetTorqueLimit

The torque limit values of a drive in positive and in negative direction of rotation can be

defined by the control. So far, the limit values were set via SDO access. For controlling the

drives via an EtherCAT fieldbus, it is possible to transfer these values as a part of the cyclic

process data. The advantage of this is that the values can be transmitted to the drive in a

considerably quicker way. In order to be able to make use of this advantage, a

corresponding mapping must be selected in the EtherCAT configurator, which contains

these torque limit values as process date.
The torque limit values are accessed from the PLC via the function block

L_SMC_SetTorqueLimit:

Inputs (VAR_IN)
Execute : BOOL
Activates the function.
SetTorqueLimitPos: BOOL
Orders a positive torque limit value.
TorqueLimitPos_Value: LREAL
Positive torque limit value in the range of 0 ... 100 % of the rated torque
SetTorqueLimitNeg: BOOL
Orders a negative torque limit value.
TorqueLimitNeg_Value: LREAL
Negative torque limit value in the range of 0 ... 100 % of the rated torque
Axis : AXIS_REF
Here the axis structure to which these torque limit values apply is transferred.
