This method is used when target multi-stage velocities are specified in a sequence of motions.

C-point control
C-point control refers to control passing through a "Continuance Point". In this manual, this
control is referred to as "C-point control" for the sake of convenience. This method is used to
execute consecutive E-point controls by one-time startup.
● When one movement is completed, it stops and then next movement is started.
● This also applies to movements when dwell time is set. (If dwell time is set to 0 ms, continuous
movements will occur without waiting time.)
For C-point control, the GM1 controller supports the use case patterns shown in the table
below.
C-point control for connection between paths
This refers to connection between movements within a single CNC table.
C-point control for connection between CNC tables
This refers to connection between movements across CNC tables.

You cannot change
movements only in a
particular path connection
section. (Changes must
be unified within C-point
control.)
Specify relevant parameters for
PMC_Interpolator2D or
PMC_Interpolator3D. There is
no need to create a new use
case.
