MicroLYNX – On the fly

This program illustrates how to change speeds and toggle outputs while moving. This applies to applications where a tool needs to be moved quickly to the workpiece, then decelerated for fluid dispensing, soldering, welding, laser cutting, etc. On-the-fly is an example of how MicroLYNX position trips work.
