Frequently, the timing of a motion means the X-axis value of Blend-Point #1, the start of Segment #1, cannot be at 0.

^ Motion-Start (and Blend-Point#1) at 0 ^

^ Motion-Start (and Blend-Point#1) at 60 ^

To move Blend-Point #1 (and the motion) to a value that is not 0, edit the Motion-Start parameter in the Blend-Point Editor.

The motion moves along the X-axis of the graph by the Motion-Start parameter.

STEP 1.Open the Blend-Point Editor

Blend-Point Editor icon

Use the Blend-Point & Segment toolbar.

1.Click Blend-Point & Segment toolbar > Start Blend-Point Editor

The Blend-Point Editor is now open.

STEP 2.Expand the “X-axis values” separator

Motion-Start (and Blend-Point #1) at 0

1.Click the X-axis Values orange separator bar .

You can now see the two parameters:

Motion-Start and the position of Blend-Point # on the X-axis Red-14-4 .

STEP 3.Edit the Motion-Start-parameter

Motion-Start (and X-axis value of Blend-Point #1)

Motion Start

Edit Motion- Start

Blend-Point #1 and all of the motion moves relative to the Master Machine Angle by the Motion-Start value.
