Parameters

Time

Output time when the event is fired

MotorNames

Array of strings containing the names of the external motors

Position

Array of doubles indicating the position of each external motor; the order of these values corresponds to the order of the names in MotorNames

Velocity

Array of doubles indicating the velocity of each external motor; the order of these values corresponds to the order of the names in MotorNames

Acceleration

Array of doubles indicating the acceleration of each external motor; the order of these values corresponds to the order of the names in MotorNames

ForceOrTorque

Array of doubles indicating if an external motor is a linear motor (force) or a rotary motor (torque); the order of these values corresponds to the order of the names in MotorNames

MotorValue

Array of doubles indicating the value of the motor (position, velocity, or acceleration) at the next output time step; these values are used internally for doing interpolation during the integrator time steps; the order of these values corresponds to the order of the names in MotorNames

When the motion simulation is occurring, the solver takes two types of time steps:

• integrator
• output

Integrator time steps are taken during the solve; thus, it is not guaranteed that the solver will actually converge at that step. Output time steps are taken after the solver has converged. By default, the MotorOutputTimeStepChangeNotify event is fired at integrator time steps. If you want to fire this event at output time steps, then set IMotionStudy::SetFireOutputTimeStepEvents to true.

If developing a C++ application, then use swMotionStudyMotorOutputTimeStepChangeNotify to register for this notification.
