Force that works against the direction of movement.

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 acts in a supporting manner, the opposite sign is to be entered.
