We have a customer site that has standardized on SLC's and wants this upgrade to be done on a SLC (they already have RSLogix500, training, spares, etc.). We are fully aware this would be simpler in the ControlLogix realm, but it is what it is.
We want to index a wire along a spools axis based on the rotational position of the spool (encoder off spooler via 1746-HSCE) and the wire diameter (move one wire width per spooler revolution over the course of the revolution).
Our plan was to cam the controlled axis (indexer servo via 1746-HSRV) off of a feedback axis (spooler encoder via 1746-HSCE).
Is the correct way to go about this? Also, in the 1746-HSCE manual it mentions camming is possible via incremental moves, but I cannot find any examples. Has anyone seen an example of this? Thanks.
