Non-motion commands like "Wait" or "DOut" interrupt the smoothing of a motion set. So if a very short wait (e.g. 0.1s) is inserted between two motion commands, there will be no smoothing.

The "smooth" parameter in the CPRog Program editor allows the smoothing of motion commands as depicted below:

High accelerations

Motion commands are smoothed by CPRog, while adhering to the joint accelerations defined by the "acc" parameter in the program editor. Smoothing can be done for a single motion command, but also for a combination of up to 10 commands.

In this way corners corners can be smoothed. This allows the robot to go through the corner with a constant velocity. If corner smoothing is inactive, the robot stops at every corner. This leads to a more abrupt motion.

  • Acc: Percentage of allowed maximum acceleration, 0...100%
  • Smooth: Amount of smoothing in percent, 0...100%
