Creating Electronic Cam Data

Electronic cam data defines the relation between the positions of a master axis and the positions of a slave axis.
Before you create a cam chart in ISPSoft, you have to know the relation between the positions of a master axis and the
position a slave axis. There are two methods of getting the relation between the positions of a master axis and the
positions of a slave axis.

Method 1: Creating master/slave relation by setting E-CAM data

Method 2: Importing the recorded E-CAM data with master/slave relation to create the E-CAM curves
After electronic cam data defines the relation between the master/slave positions, you can get the positions of the slave
axis by means of the positions of the master axis.
