12.3.1 Linear
Interpolation
Linear interpolation requires only the position specified in data record object 0x60C1. The
structure of the position data is according to data type 0x41 (refer to the Elmo CANopen
Implementation Guide). The velocity at each time point is calculated by finding the
difference between the corresponding position and the position of the previous point, as
in the following figure.

In the linear interpolation, two set points can be given in one message and thereby save
on busload and real time requirements.

12.3.2 Spline
Interpolation
In cubic spline interpolation, the user specifies both the position and the speed at each
time point. The record data type is 0x44 (refer to the Elmo CANopen Implementation
Guide). The drive constructs the motion path to be at the given time, at the given position,
with the given speed, as in the following figure. Spline interpolation can yield a more
accurate path specification with fewer time points, but it requires the care in constructing
the speed data.
