Tab: Cam Table
As an alternative to the graphical editor, you can also define the cam graphs In the cam table (Cam tab). You can switch between the tabular editor and the graphical editor at any time.
The first line of the table always contains the start position of the master (and the related slave values) and the last line is always the end position. The lines in-between alternately define segments and points.
 | Inserts a new line |
 | Deletes the selected segment |
X | X-position of the slave axis |
Y | Y-position of the slave axis |
V | Velocity of the slave axis |
A | Acceleration of the slave axis |
J | Jerk of the slave axis |
Segment type |
|
Lambda | Inflection point parameters for the modified sine line |
Acceleration parameters | Maximum delay parameters for the modified sine line |
The following values result from the values of the respective segment. They cannot be modified. | |
min(Position) | Minimum value of the slave position |
max(Position) | Maximum value of the slave position |
max(Velocity) | Maximum value of the velocity of the slave, based on the master axis |
max(Acceleration) | Maximum value of the acceleration of the slave, based on the master axis |
| Select a line in the table by using this tool. Selected points are deleted by pressing the Del key. |
