Graphic Analysis
The
Graphics Analysis
window provides a visual guide to tuning closed-loop systems. Motion
is controlled by the parameters set on the
Motion/Two-Point
window. Trapezoidal, parabolic
or S-curve motion may be commanded. Endpoint positions, velocity, acceleration and jerk may
also be selected.
Command and actual position are overplotted on the graphic screen. A second plot shows the
analog voltage output on the same time scale.

Sample Graphic Analysis Screen
You can access the graphics screen directly from any window by pressing the F4 key. To dis-
play continuous motion, use the “Repeat” button in the
Motion/Two-Point Motion
window. To
command single-step motion, press the space bar. The hot keys that control data acquisition
and display are:
