JKA – Jerk Control Acceleration
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

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.
