Mechanics and Controls Under One Roof

Aerotech knows what software features are needed to drive performance. We have learned it from our engineering and manufacturing team living under one roof since 1970.

Not only do we design and build precision stages and controls in the same building, but we test and validate customer applications using a “system” approach. The A3200 software tools are designed to enable meeting those system specifications. As a company locked into the precision mechanics market, our software, controls, and drives continuously evolve to meet those demands.

Connect and Go

The A3200 Platform makes setting up your motion control solution easy. Quickly set up drives, motors, and stages with the Configuration Manager application. This is one of the several tools integrated in the Motion Composer Suite that makes your team fast and effective. Team members work together to quickly develop a new solution or they can work from an existing configuration with advanced parameter importing and exporting tools.

Setting up process automation is also quick and easy. The A3200 Motion Composer Suite has integrated tools for configuring an EtherCAT, PROFINET, or Modbus Fieldbus network. Fieldbus I/O and expandable I/O on Aerotech drive hardware is directly accessible within the AeroBasic real-time programming language.

Develop and Test Real-Time Applications

The A3200 Motion Composer Suite includes a powerful environment for real-time developers. With the Motion Composer IDE you can develop, debug, and deploy real-time application code to the controller. The Motion Composer IDE can connect to a “virtual controller” and simulate your application in a virtual mode. This is a powerful development feature that allows engineers to prove-out complex processes.

For developers who aren’t working at the real-time level and prefer a standard programming language, the controller can be accessed via .NET, C, and C++ libraries; a REST API; a MATLAB library; and LabVIEW VIs.

Tune and Optimize Your Process

Optimize motor setup and servo performance with the Digital Scope’s optimization tools. Ensure your motor is phased and commutating correctly and that the encoder is optimized for performance. Continue to optimize by evaluating the servo loop and using powerful loop shaping tools to maximize performance.

Or take the easy route. Use Aerotech’s EasyTune one-button servo optimizer that makes tuning simple.

Getting Results

The Motion Composer Suite can optimize applications that use different types of motion including point-to-point, contoured, and holding position. It can optimize your application no matter the level of precision. Run your motion program on the controller while the Digital Scope collects position, velocity, and acceleration commands, feedback, and error. The results are plotted in multi-dimensional views, and Fourier transforms are performed to identify any troublesome frequency content.

Relationship-Driven Support

During each phase of your development process and your machine’s operational life cycle, we have a team ready to support your needs. Our Field Sales and Application team is an extension of your design team even while you are still considering solution options for your system.

Powerful Programming

The A3200 Motion Composer IDE is a powerful part of the software suite for developing an automation control scheme. With the Motion Composer IDE you can write and debug programs using standard program execution controls (start, stop, pause, compile, etc.), and standard debugging controls (breakpoints, step into, step over, and syntax highlighting).

A3200 Motion Composer

More than Motion

The ability to combine motion control with process tools and automation makes the AeroBasic™ programming language the motion control industry’s most powerful tool. Access language features such as program flow control, a set of galvo commands that integrate laser control with galvo scan-head motion, a TCP/IP communication library, math functions, I/O commands, file and serial port communication commands, and several advanced controller features. When the CNC option is purchased, in addition to all the functionality listed above, customers can use AeroBasic motion commands, G-Code commands, and much more in a single, non-delineated programming language.

Additional features include a detailed error explanation, full diagnostic debugging tools, a watch window that shows variable values for easy debugging, a link to the help file for a description of the error, and a full-featured CNC-style axis manager.

Debugging & Optimizing

Debug Your Automation Programs

The Motion Composer IDE includes powerful tools to help you review and debug your programs. You can insert breakpoints, run and pause your program, step into or step over subroutines, and toggle breakpoints.

All of these debug features are easily accessible on a top-level menu bar in the IDE.

Debug Your Automation Programs

Optimize Your Motion

Building a motion control centered automation solution requires that your motion is optimized. In the motion control world, throughput and accuracy are two important considerations.

The Digital Scope application has tools to detect how well the system is moving. Collect and analyze more than 70 standard axes signals and more than 50 standard task signals with a software oscilloscope capable of 2D graphs and FFT analysis.

Seeing this feedback allows you to determine how well your motion system is following the desired path, how fast it is settling into position, or how well it is holding a target position. When things aren’t working the way intended, you can monitor signals such as velocity feedback and current command feedback to get an idea of what could be causing the error.

Use the Scope tab in the Digital Scope in combination with Aerotech’s different tuning tools to optimize motor performance for the same level of motion performance.

A3200 Motion Composer IDE Features

A3200 Motion Composer IDE is an environment for developing and debugging AeroBasic programs for A3200 controllers. It has a feature-rich program editor with the following features:

Line number indicators (for each line)
Breakpoints (indicated by a breakpoint icon)
Current Line indicator (indicates the next line to be executed)
Status bar (indicates the file path, line, column, and character number)
Syntax highlighting:

Commands: Blue
Strings: Red
Variables and Registers: Brown
Parameters: Purple
Constants: Gray
Comments: Green

It also functions as a basic interface and can be used to do the following tasks.

Command basic motion
Inspect diagnostic information
Do basic configuration (for advanced configuration options, use Configuration Manager)

Editing Programs

Each controller task is identified by a tab. You can open program files in a specific task tab and debug programs that are running in that task. If you open files in multiple task tabs, the files are linked together. If you make changes to one file, the changes are applied to all linked files.

Building and Loading Programs

When building programs, the build file is always the active file and is always an .ab or .abl program. The Compiler output is sent to the Output Window, and errors are shown in the Error List. Loading a program builds the current AeroBasic program, loads it onto the controller, and sets the task to the Program Ready state. You can then execute the program.

Simulation Mode

The Automation 3200 Platform allows you to test or debug programs without moving some or any of the axes, allowing you to develop or debug your motion program before hardware and motion mechanics are ready. Simulation mode occurs when you use Virtual or Null Axes.

Virtual Axis: there is not a configured drive for that communication channel, so you don’t create motion or torque on an axis.
Null Axis: the servo loop is bypassed, and the position and velocity feedback are set equal to the position and velocity commands, respectively. Position error and velocity error are always zero.

Running and Debugging Programs

In the Motion Composer IDE, you can take advantage of a full suite of tools to run and debug programs in both Simulation and Live Mode.

To run in Simulation Mode, simply set up the axes as virtual or null, as described above. To run and debug a real process, first make sure that the system is set up correctly.

The following actions are available for running and debugging a program:

Run the selected AeroBasic program
Pause the active program
Stop the program associated with the active task
Stop all programs (on all tasks)
Toggle a breakpoint
Clear all breakpoints
Toggle line highlighting
Variable Watch

View and edit the value of Global Variables, Task Variables, Program Variables, Virtual Binary I/O Bits, and Virtual I/O Registers

Step Over

Executes one line of the program that is associated with the active task
For a subroutine call (CALL or FARCALL), it executes all of the subroutine and moves to the next program line

Step Into

Executes one line of the program that is associated with the active task
If the program line is a subroutine call (CALL or FARCALL), it steps one level into the subroutine

Issue Immediate Commands

An immediate command is a one-line AeroBasic program that executes on a task. These commands are issued from the Command Box or by using the IMMEDIATE EXECUTE AeroBasic command from a program. This functionality is perfect for simple commands such as:

Asynchronous motion commands
Setting parameters via AeroBasic commands
Setting variables
Setting modes (for example, absolute/incremental programming modes)

Most immediate commands can execute on a task at the same time a program is running on that task. Some of the more complicated commands require that the task program is stopped.

A3200 Digital Scope Features

The A3200 Digital Scope is a system analysis and tuning application that lets you optimize system performance using a collection of advanced tuning tools and features. With system analysis tools, you can plot and graphically analyze system data. With tuning tools, you can automatically calculate servo-loop and feedback device parameters.

The Digital Scope application includes a variety of utilities that let you perform analysis and tuning operations.

Scope: A Powerful Digital Oscilloscope

The Scope tool is used to collect and view 1D or 2D data. A Configure Data Collection tool gives you access to all Axis, System, and Task data items. Customize the signals that you are interested in seeing, the resolution of collection, the number of points, and how the signals will appear on your visual plotter. Enjoy zoom in, zoom out, zoom extents, and dual cursor controls as you evaluate your data in 1D or 2D format. Quickly switch between 1D and 2D and perform Fourier Transforms on collected signals.

Integrate data collection when you using Step Forward, Step Back, and Auto Step controls. These tools allow you to configure simple axis motion and coordinates data collection, as configured with that motion.

The Scope Tool also provides the capability to autotune the servo loop of an axis. Use autotune to calculate a set of servo loop gains. Simply excite the axis using a predefined input. The output is measured and new servo loop gains are calculated by the autotune feature.

EasyTune: More Automatic than Autotuning

EasyTune is a one-button tool that automatically tunes and optimizes an axis. When EasyTune is finished, the optimized servo gains and servo filters are committed to the controller.

Loop Transmission: For Those Who Analyze

Use the Loop Transmission utility to analyze the characteristics of the servo loop and the associated mechanical system. The Loop Transmission measures the response of the servo loop. Signals are sampled and displayed for magnitude and phase analysis.

Powerful “loop shaping” tools are available to the user. These tools work with the existing data and show a prediction of an updated loop transmission response plot should new servo gains and parameters be applied. These loop shaping tools include:

Warnings for feedback data that indicate unstable behavior
Single button optimization of the servo loop gains and digital filters
Single button assignment of all digital filters
Graphical shifts of the predicted open-loop magnitude and phase
Graphical additions of Low Pass, Notch, Lead Lag, and Resonant filters
Direct editing of the digital filters in the frequency response plotter utility
The ability to overlap multiple loop transmission plots

Feedback Tuning: Removing Error from Precision Feedback Devices

Tune the feedback device signals so that optimum performance can be achieved. This utility can only be used with analog feedback devices. The goal of the feedback tuning utility is to tune the feedback device so that the Lissajous pattern received from the feedback device closely matches the ideal Lissajous circle pattern. This tuning is applicable to sine-wave encoders and resolvers. It can also be applied to situations that use dual loop sine-wave (position and velocity) tuning.

Add-On: Dynamic Controls Toolbox

The Dynamic Controls Toolbox includes a collection of controller-level algorithms designed to improve machine positioning, increase throughput, and reduce cycle times. These tools include: Harmonic Cancellation, Command Shaping, and Cross-Axis Feedforward.

Add-On: Enhanced Throughput Module

The Enhanced Throughput Module (ETM) is a physical sensor that is added to your mechanical motion system. It can improve machine throughput by measuring base or frame vibration directly and using this information in the servo control algorithm. The Enhanced Throughput Module interface in the Digital Scope allows this sensor and its input to be configured on the controller.
