Motion module Product Outline

Motion module RD78GH/RD78G Simple Motion Mode CC-LinkIE TSN

Concept

These Motion modules with multiple-core processors enable to configure a high-speed, large system by supporting the CC-Link IE TSN real-time open network.

  • Performs positioning control such as linear interpolation using function blocks. The programming is easy: users just need to set positioning data to the function blocks.
  • Connects to various modules such as servo amplifiers and I/O modules via CC-Link IE TSN. This connectivity allows you to configure a servo system more flexibly.
  • Supports a consistent engineering environment that is capable of handling tasks ranging from system design to debugging and maintenance.

Selection of mode

You can select the appropriate mode from the two operating modes, considering the programming language or project heritage, etc.

Simple Motion Mode
PLCopen(R) Motion Control FB Mode
Features of Simple Motion mode
  • Positioning control can be easily performed with motion profile tables. Synchronous control can be executed only with parameter settings.
  • Remote devices are connected via CC-Link IE TSN and programmed from PLC CPUs.
  • Data that is synchronized with the motion operation cycle can be collected with the digital oscilloscope. The collected data is displayed in waveforms for operation verification.

Features of PLCopen(R) Motion Control FB Mode
  • Supports ST language for programming while a PLC CPU supports ladder, FBD/LD, and ST language.
  • Utilizes the library of PLCopen® Motion Control FBs, which are compliant with international standards, for programming.
  • Enables users to analyze the operation status with logging data on GX LogViewer, improving debug efficiency.

A PLC CPU program starts operation of the Motion module, eliminating the need for users to create another program for the Motion module, reducing programming burden.

Motion modules can execute operations in place of the PLC CPU. This reduces the operation burden on the PLC CPU and results in a shorter cycle time.
