The parameters of a PT motion are summarized in the following table:
Parameter Use
Comment
MP[1]
Lowest valid element of QP vector.
MP[2]
Highest valid row of QP vector.
MP[3]
0: Motion stops if read pointer reaches
MP[2].
1: Motion continues when read pointer
reaches MP[2]. The next row of the
table is MP[1].
Cyclical behavior definition.
MP[4]
Number of controller sampling times
in each PT motion segment.
