The JKA[axis] command for acceleration sets the ratio between S-Curve and linear acceleration. The percentage of S-curve the profile contains can be set, with a range from 0 to 100. A setting of 0 is the same as a complete linear profile, and a setting of 100 is the same as a complete S-curve profile. 


Applies to: CMD-4CR, CMD-4EX-SA, PMX-4EX-SA, PMX-4ET-SA, PMX-2ED-SA, PMX-2EX-SA


ASCII                        JKA

Syntax:                        

Read:

JKA[axis]                

Where:        [axis]  is set to X, Y, Z, U


Write:

JKA[axis]=[percent]                 

Where:        [axis]  is set to X, Y, Z, U

[percent]    is the percentage of the S-curve the profile contains (0 - 100)

Reply: 

Command is accepted and executed

Read:         

Returns the percentage of the S-curve the profile contains


Write:           

OK


Command cannot be processed

       An error message is returned. See Error Codes

Example: 

Read:        

JKAY                * Returns the percentage of the S-curve the Y axis profile acceleration contains.


Write:        

JKAX=75         * Sets the X axis profile acceleration to 75% S-curve.


Notes:

  • When S-curve is disabled, linear acceleration/deceleration is used.
  • When S-curve is enabled, changing jerk acceleration (JKA) and jerk deceleration (JKD) allows for fine-tuning of the S-curve profile.

  • It is possible to set mixed acceleration/deceleration types in a single profile. Changing the jerk acceleration (JKA) or jerk deceleration (JKD) to 0 makes the acceleration/deceleration linear.
