This example will specify a relative position movement on X, Y and Z axes. The movement on each
axis will be separated by 20 msec. Fig. 6.1 shows the velocity profiles for the X,Y and Z axis.
#A Begin Program
PR 2000,500,100 Specify relative position movement of 1000, 500 and 100 counts for X,Y and Z
axes.

Figure 6.1 - Velocity Profiles of XYZ
Notes on fig 6.1: The X and Y axis have a ‘trapezoidal’ velocity profile, while the Z axis has a
‘triangular’ velocity profile. The X and Y axes accelerate to the specified speed, move at this constant
