Defining the functionalities for path preparation (P-STUP-00060)

P-STUP-00060/	Defining functionalities for path preparation.
Description	This parameter defines the individual functionalities for path preparation. The individual functions can be enabled or disabled for testing or for performance reasons.
Parameter	configuration.channel[i].path_preparation.function
Data type	STRING
Data range	FCT_DEFAULT	The functions FCT_FFM \| FCT_PRESEGMENTATION \| FCT_SPLINE \| FCT_POLY \| FCT_CAX \| FCT_CAX_TRACK \| FCT_SEGMENTATION are available.
	FCT_FFM	Free-form surface mode, #HSC [OPMODE 1 CONTERR 0.01], #HSC [OPMODE 2]
	FCT_PRESEGMENTATION	Linear pre-segmentation in HSC mode
	FCT_SPLINE	#HSC[], AKIMA, B-Spline, G150/G151
	FCT_POLY	#CONTOUR MODE[], G61, G261/G260
	FCT_CAX	C axis processing, i.e. the spindle is embedded in the NC channel.
	FCT_CAX_TRACK	#CAX TRACK, tracking an axis according to the contour angle
	FCT_SEGMENTATION	For dynamic segmentation of the path contour, e.g. if the curvature of a polynomial segment varies significantly.
	The following functions must also be enabled:
	FCT_LIFT_UP	Automatic lifting/lowering of an axis (path-based coupling). Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_LIFT_UP
	FCT_EMF	Edge machining (sharp angle contours). Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_EMF
	FCT_EMF_POLY_OFF	Edge machining inactive with polynomials. Contrary to the setting with FCT_EMF, edge signal generation is masked when path polynomial generation is active in the channel. Polynomials are generated for smoothing G261 or when BSpline is active. The resulting geometry is then tangential. Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_EMF_POLY_OFF

	FCT_SYNC	Synchronise an axis to a path group. Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_SYNC
	FCT_PRECON	Optimised planning using #HSC[BSPLINE]. Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_PRECON
	FCT_LIFT_UP_TIME	Automatic lifting/lowering of an axis (time-based coupling). Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_LIFT_UP_TIME
	FCT_PTP	Dynamically optimised smoothing of the complete contour. Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_PTP
	FCT_M_PRE_OUTPUT	Pre-output of M/H functions (microwebs). Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_M_PRE_OUTPUT
	FCT_SURFACE	HSC machining with Surface Optimiser Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_SURFACE
	FCT_SEG_CHECK	Block segmentation in combination with path-controlled offset of M functions (dwell time), see P-STUP-00070 Example: FCT_DEFAULT \| FCT_SEG_CHECK
