Parameters Description Page
Start Condition
Sets the start conditions for your motion profile. The start condition is the initial time,
position, and velocity of the motion profile.
168
Accel/Decel Where you enter parameters for an Acceleration or Deceleration profile segment. 168
Cruise/Dwell
Where you enter parameters for a Cruise or Dwell profile segment. The profile
segment is considered a cruise if the velocity at the end of the previous profile
segment is non-zero and is considered a dwell if that velocity is zero.
170
Index
Where you enter parameters for an Index profile segment. An Index profile segment
consists of an acceleration, a cruise, and a deceleration.
