11.2.3.3 Importing data from an external CSV file
You also use the CSV File option to import the profile table data from an external .csv file. Select the CSV
File option and then select the valid file using the browse button. After selecting the source file, click
Import to complete the import of the data. A message indicates successful data import. After import, the
size of the profile table is shown in the grid and you can view the graphical representation of position,
velocity, acceleration, and jerk based on the profile table data now loaded into the grid.
If an invalid source or invalid format is selected, an "Invalid Data Format" message appears.
11.2.4 Motion Profile Table: Advanced
A motion profile table is a table of unit-less position values, which are the integral of the velocity profile dur-
ing the acceleration and deceleration process of a motion task. A motion profile can be stored in the drive
and used in order to accelerate and decelerate with a certain profile shape.
The motion profile table describes the shape of the acceleration process, but does not determine how fast
the motion task accelerates or decelerates and which target velocity will be reached.
11.2.4.1 Example of a motion profile table
An example of a motion profile table is shown below:
