Figure 128 - Logix Element Dialog Box
The Logix Element Motion Parameter table is essentially the same as the
RSLogix 5000 cam editor. These profile segments can be mixed with any other
types available in the
More Options Profile Editor Mode dialog box, thus a small
section of non-linear motion profile (for example, a cosine compensation profile
segment) can be created in a spreadsheet and combined with a simple index
profile segment.
It is important to distinguish between the terms segment and element.
