New features in 4.09 include Infinite Field of View and galvo calibration improvements on A3200 and better controller trajectories on the Ensemble and Soloist.
The following summary of new features is only for this release of Aerotech software and may not represent the latest version. Please visit the Software Downloads page on the Aerotech website to access the complete Release Notes and to download the latest version of the software.
New in Version 4.09.000
A3200
- The location of OGM files can be setup from within Configuration Manager or Motion Composer. This capability allows the user to store program files in a read-only folder.
- Added PSOANALOG features to the Ndrive HLe, HPe, and FLS and the Nmark CLS.
- Reduced download times for galvo calibration files and increased the table size to 257×257.
- 2D galvo calibration files download faster.
- Infinite Field of View (IFOV) is infinitely easier to configure and works with any motion profile— without you having to optimize your AeroBasic program.
- With the improved FILEREADARRAYBINARY AeroBasic command the controller can read different data types. And, the controller stops the task when an error occurs. The old syntax will compile and run, but it is no longer documented.
- Use the FILESIZE function to retrieve the size of a file in bytes from AeroBasic.
Ensemble and Soloist
- Use the FeedforwardAdvance parameter to specify the time by which the velocity and acceleration feedforward contributions to the output of the servo loop are advanced by the controller.
- Command shaping is applied at the servo rate instead of 1 kilohertz.
- See your controller trajectories improve because the controller uses analytically computed velocity to produce more accurate positions.
- The firmware loads faster.
- You can specify if axes will move out of an end-of-travel or software limit fault condition when you acknowledge the fault by using the FaultAckMoveOutOfLimit system parameter.
