2. Constant Distance
In this coupling mode, the slave accelerates to reach the master's speed in order, for the slave, at the
synchronized point, to have moved "slave distance" and for the master to have moved "master distance".
So, if the master changes speed during acceleration phase, the slave speed will change as well.
This coupling mode is for a master-slave ratio = 1, and the master distance = 2 x slave distance.
3. Constant acceleration with phase correction
In this coupling mode, the slave will accelerate at constant acceleration to reach the ratio of the master's speed
and then a slave phase shift adjustment will be automatically performed to adjust the slave phase to the master
phase with a parameter defined in Master Distance and Slave Distance.
After adjustment, the slave is synchronized with the master in the same phase. The master distance and slave
distance must be defined so that the slave is synchronized before the synchronization point.
