Tab 'Tappets'

 

You define tappet paths in this table graphical editor. A tappet path defines one or more tappets depending on the master position. At the upper edge of the editor window, a horizontal axis approaches the range of the master positions. The individual tappet paths follow below.

You can switch between the graphical editor and the table editor at any time.
