4.3.5.4 Type configuration for circular conveyor
Introduction
For each conveyor work area on a circular conveyor, the type parameters, Sensor
offset, Mechanics and Rotating Move, must be set.
Sensor offset defines the distance between the sensor and the conveyor base
frame original point. For example, when using a camera, this parameter represents
the distance of the projection point of the camera on the conveyor belt from the
center of the circle.
Note
The distance for Sensor offset is measured manually.

Mechanics defines the moving trajectory of the conveyor. The default value is
EXT_LIN (linear conveyor). So when the circular conveyor is used, this parameter
must be set as EXT_ROT.
