Edit imported cam 
To edit a cam imported into SIMOTION CamTool: 
1.  The cam imported from a text file is displayed in SIMOTION CamTool. Segment limits 
between individual cam segments are marked in the S diagram (distance diagram).  
Select the cam segment that you want to edit. Note the displayed segment limits. 
2.  Delete the cam segment by pressing the DEL key. The cam segment is replaced by an 
interpolation curve (transition) by SIMOTION CamTool. If required, fixed points are 
inserted in the curve to maintain the corner points of the original curve. 
3.  The cam segment (e.g. fixed point) inserted by SIMOTION CamTool can be edited (e.g. 
change position). 
4.  The interpolation curve (transition) inserted by SIMOTION CamTool can be optimized 
(e.g. velocity).

device. 
Only then can you upload the cam currently opened with SIMOTION CamTool from the 
SIMOTION device. The upload is only possible in ONLINE status.
