AN-322 Additional XY Plotter Functions
Additional functionality has been added to the Trio Motion
Coordinator system software (in v2.0254) to ease the programming of XY plotter
systems:
- PLOT_CALC
function – Calculates the change in direction and estimates the radius of a
pair of vectors
- Embedded
speed move types (including MOVEABSSP frequently used for plotters) have
additional functionalityThis document explains how to use this functionality

COMPENSATE_XY is a motion command designed to allow for a superimposed compensation motion to be applied to an axis based on the measured position of 2 axes (X & Y).
AN-361 HW_PSWITCH XY Mode
The HW_PSWTICH command takes a list of trigger positions and loads them into a hardware buffer in the FPGA. This is done individually for each axis. In a Cartesian system, there is a need for accurate outputs to be triggered based on the XY position ...
