Overview of compensation parameters
The overview of compensation parameters is sorted into a 4-column table.
- Column 1 contains the unambiguous identifier of the axis parameter called the “ID”. which consists of the prefix “P-VOLC” and a unique 5-digit number,
e.g. P-VOLC-00001. - Column 2 represents the data structure which defines the parameter
The structure is a categorisation aid and is described in the following section (irrelevant for compensation parameters). If an entry is missing in ‘structure’, this is not an error. The parameter in column 3 “parameter” is then only valid on its own. - Column 3 contains the “parameter” with its exact description,
e.g. x - Column 4 contains the “functionality” in a summarised term/short description
e.g. Logical axis number of the participating X axis
