Description
F
vs
Force that acts in the opposite direction to the movement, caused, for instance, by a trailer or
wind resistance.
• Value is entered in the Motion dimensioning step.
The sign of the counterforce determines its effective direction:
• If the speed is positive,
• positive values act opposite to the direction of travel,
• negative values act with the direction of travel.
• If the speed is negative,
• positive values act with the direction of travel,
• negative values act opposite to the direction of travel.
Note!
If the force is to have a supporting function, the opposed sign is to be entered.
