Functions 4.9 Specify parameters for target device

Scaling

You can specify the scaling for the target device here.

Notice

To display the scaled curve, select menu Cam > Representation parameters > Display scaling.

If the scaled curve is displayed, you cannot edit the original curve. To edit the original curve again, reselect menu Cam > Representation parameters > Display scaling.

You can set the following parameters:

Explanation/instructions

Master axis

 

 

 

Basic scaling

Enter the basic scaling of the master axis here. The center of the scaling

 

 

 

 

is always the coordinate origin.

 

 

 

 

Note:

 

 

 

 

Do not use any scaling values which are greater than 5. Greater values

 

 

 

 

cause a roughness in the curve characteristic.

 

Scalings

You can specify the scalings of two ranges of the master axis here. The

 

 

 

 

center of the scaling is the start point of the scaling range.

 

 

 

 

Note:

 

 

 

 

If you specify two ranges, the ranges cannot overlap.

 

 

 

(Range1)

Under From and To, enter the range that you want to scale. Under

 

 

 

 

Factor, enter the scaling factor.

 

 

 

 

Note:

 

 

 

 

Do not use any scaling values which are greater than 5. Greater values

 

 

 

 

cause a roughness in the curve characteristic.

 

 

 

(Range2)

Under From and To, enter the range that you want to scale. Under

 

 

 

 

Factor, enter the scaling factor.

 

 

 

 

Note:

 

 

 

 

Do not use any scaling values which are greater than 5. Greater values

 

 

 

 

cause a roughness in the curve characteristic.

 

Offset

You can enter a factor for the offset of the master axis here. If you have

 

 

 

 

specified a scaling, the offset applies to the scaled curve. If you have not

 

 

 

 

specified a scaling, the offset applies to the unscaled curve.
