Application Note #2521

Modes of Motion: Electronic Cam

A practical guide to Electronic Cam (ECAM) mode on Galil controllers. This application note walks through the full setup workflow — defining the master axis (EA), cycle length (EM), table interval (EP), and slave positions (ET) — using a conveyor-belt labeling and kicking system as a worked example. Also covers advanced features including on-the-fly phase shift correction and the EW command for re-allocating table resolution to curved profile segments.
