<following axis>: Axis whose motion is to be calculated using the curve table (optional)
<leasing axis>: Axis providing the master values for the calculation of the following axis
motion (optional)
<following value>: Following axis value for reading the associated leading axis value
for CTABINV
<leading value>: Leading axis value:
● For reading the associated following axis value with CTAB
or
● For the selection of the curve segment with CTABSSV/CTABSEV
<approximate
value>:
The assignment of a leading axis value to a following axis value
with CTABINV must not always be unique. CTABINV requires, therefore, an
approximate value for the expected leading axis value as a parameter.
<a>: Lower limit of the master value interval with CTABTMIN/CTABTMAX
<b>:
Upper limit of the master value interval with CTABTMIN/CTABTMAX
Note:
The master value interval <a> to <b> always has to be within the curve
table's definition range.
Examples
Example 1:
Define following axis and leading axis values at the start and end of the curve table, along with
the minimum and maximum values of the following axis in the entire definition range of the
curve table.
