Quick Start

Position/Distance – If using an absolute index, this is the desired final position after the index is complete. If using an incremental index, then this is the distance you want the load to move from the start of the index. This is a signed value.

Velocity – This is the target velocity of the index profile. The velocity parameter is unsigned and is always greater than zero. Direction of the index is not determined by the velocity, but by the Distance/Position parameter.

Acceleration – Is the average acceleration rate used when accelerating to the target index velocity.

Deceleration - Is the average deceleration rate used when decelerating to zero speed, or to the new target velocity.
