AXY:MC-Basic:group.VELOCITYRATE

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

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

Short form

<group>.VRate

Syntax

<group>.VelocityRate = <expression>

?<group>.VelocityRate

Availability

Since Version 4.0.1

Type

Double

Range

0.1 to 100

	NOTE
	Contrary to other properties if a value beyond the given range is assigned to rate properties (Vrate,Arate,Jrate, ...),only a NOTE will be returned and the value will be automatically limited to min-max value. For example Vrate = 0 will set Vrate to 0.1 and vrate = 1000 will set vrate 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 velocityrate value is combination of the system’s value and the element’s.

Examples

G1.vrate = 10

?G1.vrate
