Specification of the type of transition
#SET ASPLINE MODE [ <start_transition>, <target_transition> ] (modal)
<start_transition>,
<target_transition> Type of tangential transition between the spline curve and the adjacent (linear- or circular) movement blocks.
Type of transition | Significance |
1 | Tangent of the spline curve at the transition is automatically calculated |
2 | Tangential transition to the preceding or succeeding linear or circular block |
3 | Tangent of the spline curve at the transition is explicitly specified |
The specification of the of transition type is optional. In case of a missing specification, transition type 1 is used as default.
If explicit tangent specification is chosen for a certain transition (transition type 3) and if for a certain axis no tangent is programmed, then this tangent is automatically determined (transition type 1).
