Figure 6.1 - Velocity Profiles of ABC 
Notes on fig 6.1:  The A and B axis have a ‘trapezoidal’ velocity profile, while the C axis has a 
‘triangular’ velocity profile.  The A and B axes accelerate to the specified speed, move at this constant 
speed, and then decelerate such that the final position agrees with the command position, PR.  The C 
axis accelerates, but before the specified speed is achieved, must begin deceleration such that the axis 
will stop at the commanded position.  All 3 axes have the same acceleration and deceleration rate, 
hence, the slope of the rising and falling edges of all 3 velocity profiles are the same. 
Position Tracking 
 
The Galil controller may be placed in the position tracking mode to support changing the target of an 
absolute position move on the fly.  New targets may be given in the same direction or the opposite 
direction of the current position target.  The controller will then calculate a new trajectory based upon 
the new target and the acceleration, deceleration, and speed parameters that have been set.  The motion 
profile in this mode is trapezoidal.  There is not a set limit governing the rate at which the end point 
may be changed, however at the standard TM rate, the controller updates the position information at 
the rate of 1msec.  The controller generates a profiled point every other sample, and linearly 
interpolates one sample between each profiled point.  Some examples of applications that may use this 
mode are satellite tracking, missile tracking, random pattern polishing of mirrors or lenses, or any 
application that requires the ability to change the endpoint without completing the previous move. 
 
The PA command is typically used to command an axis or multiple axes to a specific absolute position.  
For some applications such as tracking an object, the controller must proceed towards a target and have 
the ability to change the target during the move.  In a tracking application, this could occur at any time 
during the move or at regularly scheduled intervals.  For example if a robot was designed to follow a 
moving object at a specified distance and the path of the object wasn’t known the robot would be 
required to constantly monitor the motion of the object that it was following.  To remain within a 
specified distance it would also need to constantly update the position target it is moving towards.  
Galil motion controllers support this type of motion with the position tracking mode.  This mode will 
allow scheduled or random updates to the current position target on the fly.  Based on the new target 
the controller will either continue in the direction it is heading, change the direction it is moving, or 
decelerate to a stop.
