CALIBRATION_START enumeration

The Calibration Start enumeration is used to determine the start point
of axis calibration measurement for a specific axis. The
Calibration_Start enumeration is:

Enumeration

Result:

0

Most +

1

Most -

Most + means calibration points start at the calibration point entered
with the most positive value. Most negative means calibration points
start at the calibration point entered with the most negative value.
Subsequent points will then be measured from the most positive or
negative data point you enter for your ballscrew. The
Calibration_Type enumeration determines if the points are measured
from the start point or from subsequent entered points.

CALIBRATION_TYPE enumeration

The Calibration Type enumeration is used to identify the method
used to enter calibration data in the axis calibration tables for a
specific axis. The Calibration_Type enumeration is:
