GetMotorVel() - motorUnits/ms, not servo period?

Recommended Posts

The documentation for GetMotorVel() included with the 8/19/2013, 1.5.021 IDE states that the returned velocity is 0.0625 * Motor[mtr].FltrVel units.

(note that 0.0625 is 1/16)

 

The Power PMAC Software Reference Manual, August 10, 2012 states that

Motor[x].FltrVel returns 'Motor units per 16 servo interrupt periods'.

 

Therefore, GetMotorVel() returns Motor Units/servo interrupt period.

 

When I actually use GetMotorVel(), it appears to return

Motor Units/ms, NOT Motor Units/servo interrupt period.

 

Please correct the documentation.

 

Is GetMotorVel() documented outside the IDE's online help?
