7 PC based Motion Generator PMotion
7.1 Introduction
PMotion is part of Motion Control Tools, which can be used for graphically design of custom
machine motions between two machine axes.
Screen layout:
The Motion Generator window presents the current map shape as a series of segments. In the
above picture position, velocity, acceleration and jerk are being viewed. The currently selected
segment is highlighted in red and the position of the mouse pointer is given in map coordinates
in the status bar.
When PMotion is first started a map consisting of a single segment is displayed. This map can
then be edited as required, or a previous session can be loaded from the PC disk.
The following sections detail all the menus, dialogue boxes and actions associated with the
Motion Generator.
