AXY:MC-Basic:group.PROFILERTYPE

Defines the profiler-type used in the motion.

• -1 - profile type is defined by the SmoothFactor (from version 4.7.3 only)
• 0 – Velocity based Velocity trapeze (VT)
  
• 1 – Velocity based Sine acceleration (SA)
  
• 2 – Time based trapeze acceleration (TA) or velocity trapeze (VT)
• 3 - Constant Velocity profile (one sample acceleration and one sample deceleration)

IMPORTANT

If MODAL value of the PrfType equals -1 (default from 4.7.3!) the SmoothFactor is the only one who determines the profile type. Values of the SmoothFactor between [1,100] and the value of -1 define the SINE-ACCELERATION profile and value of zero the VELOCITY-TRAPEZE profile. If MODAL value of PrfType differs from -1, SmoothFactor has no influence on the type of the profile. Still the SmoothFactor defines the JERK value (as before).
