KS (Step Motor Smoothing)
[Motion]
DESCRIPTION:
The KS parameter sets the amount of smoothing of stepper motor pulses. This is most useful when operating
in full or half step mode. Larger values of KS provide greater smoothness. This parameter will also increase
the motion time by 3KS sampling periods. KS adds a single pole low pass filter onto the output of the
motion profiler.
Note: Note: KS will cause a delay in the generation of output steps.
ARGUMENTS: KS n,n,n,n
or
KSA=n
where
n is a positive number in the range between .5 and 16 with a resolution of 1/32.
USAGE:
OPERAND USAGE:
_KSn contains the value of the derivative constant for the specified axis.
