Introduction
Scaled motion rules
4.2 Scaled motion rules
Each segment i of the whole cam describes a part which is defined by the value range si0 =
f(ji0) and si1 = f(ji1).
 The corresponding functions are imaged internally to the scaled value range of 0...1.
 The coefficients of the profiles, included in the property pages, also refer to this scaled
value range.
 The speeds and accelerations in the property page represent the real boundary value
with regard to the geometrical dimensions. Thus, the calculation is based on the rule
v = ds / dj and a = d2s / dj2.
These geometrical values for speed and and acceleration are also used in the graphical
representation.
