Changing Speed on the Fly
Speed changes can be made while the syringe plunger is moving. This is called
“changing speed on the fly.”
Speeds can be decreased or increased between 5 and 1024 Hz (i.e., in the microstepping
region).
To change speed on the fly:
1 Issue speed commands with identical start and top velocities (e.g., [v100V100]),
followed by a lowercase Plunger Move command. Ramping is not allowed in on-
the-fly changes.
2 Issue a new top velocity in the range 5 to 1024 while the plunger is moving to
change the speed on the fly.
NOTE When the move completes, speed values revert to original values (i.e., value
sent on-the-fly is temporary).
