MC_ReadActualVelocity and MC_ReadAcutalTorque

[craigthomp]

What is required to get MC_ReadActualVelocity and MC_ReadAcutalTorque to operate?  In my testing they always return 0.  Is there a way for these function to read S-0-0084/S-0-0040 configured in AT so they update the data cyclically.

[Jochen_Mueller]

No, it is not possible to get these data at the FB by configure the two parameter at the AT.

The FB will read Motion-App internal values. Some are already "connected" to the drive parameter (via AxisProfile), some not (e.g. velocity, torque). With the implementation of further operation-modes this "connection" will be done.

For the velocity this will come with the next RM22.03. For the torque sometime later.

For now, as you probably know, you can read as I/O via the DataLayer then convert to REAL. But it will be more convenient to have this data already available via the Axis Profile.

Velocity mode is now available with RM22.03 (V1.14).
