This really isn't a problem I'm having but more an attempt to better understand how the TriPLC controls stepper motors. Two questions really:
1) If you command an axis to move a distance that is less than twice the acceleration value what happens? For example:
STEPSPEED 1, 2000, 500
STEPMOVE 1, 800, 1
2) What about if the commanded distance is less than the acceleration value:
STEPSPEED 1, 2000, 500
STEPMOVE 1, 100, 1
The reason I ask is because the sounds coming from my stepper don't often match my expectations. It almost sounds as if it's accelerating a different rates depending on how far I tell it to go which doesn't seem right to me. I would think the PLC would always try to maintain the same acceleration slope while lowering the max speed.
