[Function] Set the travel speed of a linear movement axis to the VLMX speed (normally the maximum
speed).
When a VLMX command is executed, the value registered in “Axis-specific parameter No.
29, VLMX speed of linear movement axis” will be set as the travel speed.
(Note) When the VLMX speed is specified in a continuous position movement command (PATH or
PSPL), the target speed to each position will become a composite speed calculated based
on the VLMX speed, provided that the speed for each axis does not exceed “Axis-specific
parameter No. 28, Maximum PTP speed (SCARA axis)/maximum operating speed of each
axis (linear movement axis).” To keep the target speed constant, a speed must be explicitly
specified using a VEL command.
[Example] VEL 1000
MOVP 1 The speed in this section becomes 1,000 mm/sec.
