S-Curve Ratio - Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC Q Series Programming Manual

4 PARAMETERS FOR POSITIONING CONTROL

4.3.2 S-curve ratio

S-curve ratio can be set as the acceleration/deceleration processing method for S-
curve acceleration/deceleration processing.
(Refer to Section 6.1.7 for details of S-curve acceleration/deceleration processing.)
Setting range of the S-curve ratio is 0 to 100[%].
If it is set outside the range, an error occurs at the start and control is executed with the
S-curve ratio set as 0[%] (Trapezoidal acceleration/deceleration).
Errors are set in the error item information (SD517).
Setting of the S-curve ratio enables acceleration/deceleration processing to be
executed gently.
The graph for S-curve acceleration/deceleration is a sine curve as shown below.
Positioning speed
As shown below, the S-curve ratio setting serves to select the part of the sine curve to
be used as the acceleration/deceleration curve.
