VT (Vector Time Constant)
[Motion]
DESCRIPTION:
The VT command filters the acceleration and deceleration functions in vector moves of VM, LM type to
produce a smooth velocity profile. The resulting profile, known as Smoothing, has continuous acceleration
and results in reduced mechanical vibrations. VT sets the bandwidth of the filter, where 1 means no filtering
and 0.004 means maximum filtering. Note that the filtering results in longer motion time.
ARGUMENTS: VT n
where
n is an unsigned number with a resolution of 1/256.
