We are excited to announce the release of VS MoDK version 1.16, which brings a range of new features and improvements to the Motion Control Development Kit (MoDK)
Improvements in this release include:
- API Kit Enhancements
In this release, we have separated the API kit into dedicated parts for common, drive, and simulation functionalities. - G-Code Parser Support
VS MoDK 1.16 introduces support for G-code parsing, which enables utilizing G-code files as input for the KMC_FbMovePath function. This simplifies the integration of G-code based motion paths into user applications. - New Function Block: MC_GroupSetPosition
We have implemented a new function block, MC_GroupSetPosition, which allows developers to set the position of a group of axes simultaneously. - Compatibility with VS EtherCAT Master 2.x
VS MoDK 1.16 now supports VS EtherCAT Master 2.x, ensuring compatibility with the latest version of our EtherCAT Master software. - Bug Fixes
This release addresses several known issues:- Resolved an error that occurred when using MC_MoveContinuousAbsolute with the 'BlendingNext' buffer mode.
- Fixed a synchronization error that manifested after master or slave axes movement in KMC_FbCamIn.
