The equations in this reference use a unit of measure of steps/second/second (steps/second
2
) for acceleration
and deceleration. However, when programming the SMD23E2 or SMD24E2, all acceleration and decelera-
tion values must be programmed in the unit of measure of steps/second/millisecond.

To convert from steps/second
2
to steps/second/millisecond, divide the value by 1000. This must be done
when converting from a value used in the equations to a value programmed into the SMD23E2 or
SMD24E2.

To convert from steps/second/millisecond to steps/second
2
, multiply the value by 1000. This must be
done when converting from the value programmed into the SMD23E2 or SMD24E2 to the value used
in the equations.
Constant Acceleration Equations
When you choose to use constant accelerations, the speed of the move will increase linearly towards the Pro-
grammed Speed. This is the fastest form of acceleration, resulting in the fastest move between two points at
its programmed speed. For the smoothest transition from the starting speed, the starting speed should be equal
to the square root of the acceleration in steps/sec
2
. For example, if the choose acceleration is 20,000 steps/
sec
2
, the smoothest transition occurs when the starting speed is 141. (141

This reference was added for customers that must program very precise profiles.
Understanding this section is not necessary before programming the SMD23E2 or
SMD24E2 and therefore can be considered optional. Two different approaches are
presented here. The constant acceleration example takes given parameters and
calculates the resulting profile. The variable acceleration example starts with a
desired speed profile and calculates the required parameters.
