DefaultCoordinatedRampTime Parameter

Default Value: 0.5

Minimum Value: 0.0

Maximum Value: None

Units: time seconds

Type: double

IMPORTANT: This parameter applies to dominant axes only. For more information about axis types, refer to AxisType Parameter.

The DefaultCoordinatedRampTimeparameter specifies the default coordinated acceleration and deceleration time in seconds. When you use time-based ramping, the value of this parameter applies to coordinated motion such as MoveLinear(), MoveCw(), and MoveCcw() functions.

Do not try to set the active coordinated ramp time with this parameter. To set the coordinated ramp time from within an AeroScript program, use the SetupCoordinatedRampValue() function.

Tip: Aerotech recommends that you use rate-based ramping as an alternative to time-based ramping because the maximum acceleration does not change when the commanded velocity changes. Refer to the SetupCoordinatedRampValue() function in Motion Setup Functions.

IMPORTANT: You must reset the controller for these changes to have an effect.
