Acceleration Test
Generates G-code to test acceleration. Assumes junction deviation is being used, in which case "jerk" should not be in effect. The generated G-code issues M501 at the beginning and end to avoid leaving the machine in a modified acceleration state.
The basic idea (for X acceleration):
- Draw a short segment in the positive Y direction
- Set high acceleration using
M204andM201 - Move slowly ramping up speed in +X, then change direction suddenly to −X and gradually slow to a stop
- Reset acceleration back to default
- Draw a short segment directly above the line from step 1
- Move over in +X and repeat
