3.5.6Displaying auxiliary lines in the diagram

You can represent horizontal and vertical auxiliary lines in the individual diagrams. You can, for example, determine the position of individual points of the curve via auxiliary lines.

Requirements

The cam is opened with SIMOTION CamTool.

Representing a horizontal auxiliary line in a diagram

To represent a horizontal auxiliary line (in the direction of the x-coordinate) in a diagram:

1.Click in the diagram, in which you want to represent a horizontal auxiliary line, on the x- coordinate and keep the mouse button pressed. The current position of the auxiliary line is displayed in the position window.
