<AutomationML/>  Drive Configurations

A drive chain is only half the story. The other half is what it does: a sequence of moves and pauses called a motion pattern. Change it below and watch the axis follow.

Everything is a slider. The AutomationML model and the data file behind it rewrite themselves as you go.
