AXY:MC-Basic:group.DECELERATIONRATE

This property defines the group deceleration maximum scaling factor. Maximum values of deceleration can be scaled independently of velocity, acceleration or jerk.

Changing DecelerationRate factors of a group automatically changes the relevant factor of each axis to the new value.

Short form

<GROUP>.DRate

Syntax

<GROUP>.DecelerationRate = <expression>

?<GROUP>.DecelerationRate

Availability

Versions 4.0.1 and higher

Type

Double

Range

0.1 to 100

Units

Percents

Default

100

Scope

Task or Terminal

Limitations

To set the value within a task, the group must be attached to that task  or through the command line. The total decelerationrate value is combination of the system’s value and the element’s.

Examples

Setting G1.drate = 70 will cause the system to reduce maximum deceleration value to 70% of its original value. This means the motion deceleration will not exceed: (sys.drate/100)*(g1.drate/100)*g1.dmax
