method splits the filter function between the two encoders. It applies the KP (proportional) and KI
(integral) terms to the position error, based on the load encoder, and applies the KD (derivative) term
to the motor encoder. This method results in a stable system.
The dual loop method is activated with the instruction DV (Dual Velocity), where
DV 1,1,1,1
activates the dual loop for the four axes and
DV 0,0,0,0
disables the dual loop.
Note that the dual loop compensation depends on the backlash magnitude, and in extreme cases will
not stabilize the loop. The proposed compensation procedure is to start with KP=0, KI=0 and to
maximize the value of KD under the condition DV1. Once KD is found, increase KP gradually to a
maximum value, and finally, increase KI, if necessary.
Sampled Dual Loop
In this example, we consider a linear slide which is run by a rotary motor via a lead screw. Since the
lead screw has a backlash, it is necessary to use a linear encoder to monitor the position of the slide.
For stability reasons, it is best to use a rotary encoder on the motor.
Connect the rotary encoder to the A-axis and connect the linear encoder to the auxiliary encoder of A.
Assume that the required motion distance is one inch, and that this corresponds to 40,000 counts of the
rotary encoder and 10,000 counts of the linear encoder.
The design approach is to drive the motor a distance, which corresponds to 40,000 rotary counts. Once
the motion is complete, the controller monitors the position of the linear encoder and performs position
corrections.
This is done by the following program.
