Program Development Tools

All MINT™ products are supplied with the MINT

Programmers Toolkit, a comprehensive program

development package for Microsoft Windows®

3.X/95/NT. The programmers toolkit provides a

program editor, a software oscilloscope to aid

system commissioning, file upload and download

facilities, a communications debugger and terminal

emulator.

Also included is a library of common application

examples and some ‘C’ routines, including file

upload/download to assist in the implementation of

host computer communications.

MINT Interface Library

The MINT Interface Library provides a common

Application Program Interface (API) for the complete

range of MINT products. This allows applications

running on a PC to easily access the functionality of

MINT motion controllers. Communication is via the

ISA bus for NextMove PC and via an RS232/485

serial interface for the other MINT controllers. The

API is supplied in the form of dynamic link libraries

(DLL) for Windows

3.1/95/NT operating systems. A

device driver is supplied for Windows NT

. Full C++

source code is also provided allowing the libraries to

be compiled for use with other operating systems.

Support for visual development environments such

as Visual Basic, Visual C and Borland Delphi is

included.

The MINT Interface Library also includes the

complete set of MINT ‘C’ Functions in linkable

format for developing embedded motion applications

in ‘C’ which run directly on NextMove PC and

NextMove BX platforms.

MINT Applications

The following examples illustrate how a MINT

program can be used to solve a variety of

applications.

Single-Axis Indexer

MINT can be used to position a single-axis system

fast and accurately. Positions can be taught and

replayed with ease, making this an ideal solution for

many applications traditionally done mechanically.

• Press feeders

• Packaging machine actuators

• Cut to length

Multi Axis Interpolated Moves.

MINT supports linear interpolation across eight axes

and circular interpolation across two. Circular and

linear moves can be blended together using the

CONTOUR keyword to achieve a smooth continuous

motion along a complex path. This is ideal for

applications such as:

• Sign cutting

• Wood routing

• Glue laying
