AXY:MC-Basic:axis.SMOOTHFACTOR
This property is used to control the amount of smoothing applied to the s-curve profile. The smooth factor may be set in the range from 1 to 100, to correspond approximately to an acceleration time from V/A to 3*V/A (where V is the cruise velocity and A is the acceleration). Setting the factor to 0 engages the trapezoidal velocity with no smoothing. Setting the factor to -1 returns jerk control, in which the exact value of JERK is set. When SMOOTHFACTOR is set to -1, the JERK property is used to control the amount of smoothing. This property is used inside a motion command to override the permanent value.
