This setting can be used to reduce the +# maximum speed of up/down moves (which require a higher step rate +# than other moves on a deltesian printer). The default is to use +# max_velocity for max_z_velocity. +#max_z_accel: +# This sets the maximum acceleration (in mm/s^2) of movement along +# the z axis. Setting this may be useful if the printer can reach higher +# acceleration on XY moves than Z moves (eg, when using input shaper). +# The default is to use max_accel for max_z_accel. +#minimum_z_position: 0 +# The minimum Z position that the user may command the head to move +# to. The default is 0. +#min_angle: 5 +# This represents the minimum angle (in degrees) relative to horizontal +# that the deltesian arms are allowed to achieve. This parameter is +# intended to restrict the arms from becomming completely horizontal, +# which would risk accidental inversion of the XZ axis. The default is 5. +#print_width: +# The distance (in mm) of valid toolhead X coordinates. One may use +# this setting to customize the range checking of toolhead moves. If +# a large value is specified here then it may be possible to command +# the toolhead into a collision with a tower. This setting usually +# corresponds to bed width (in mm). +#slow_ratio: 3 +# The ratio used to limit velocity and acceleration on moves near the +# extremes of the X axis. If vertical distance divided by horizontal +# distance exceeds the value of slow_ratio, then velocity and +# acceleration are limited to half their nominal values. If vertical +# distance divided by horizontal distance exceeds twice the value of +# the slow_ratio, then velocity and acceleration are limited to one +# quarter of their nominal values.
