Create motion resource - contour table

[bojantfb]

Hi,

I have one question: Is it possible to create motion resource (contour table) from spreadsheet file?

With the usage of read from spreadsheet file function I was able to import the data and now I want to use that data for contour move function. Coordinate system is made from six axis.

Hi bojantfb,

The default mode for the Contour Move Function Block (and the mode shown in your screenshot) is Finite. This can be changed by right-clicking the Function Block and choosing Select Method. Update Points 2D will allow an array of values to be input to the Countour Move Function.

I would recommend that you take a look at the Continuous Axis Countour Move example in the LabVIEW Example Finder (Help»Find Examples...) That specific example can be found in the SoftMotion section of the Example Finder (Browse»Hardware Input and Output»Motion Control»NI SoftMotion»Function Blocks»Advanced»Continuous Axis Contour Move.lvproj)

I hope that helps!
