31 Split Long Moves

If both a tight curve and part of a long, straight line are included in a Dynamic Speed Detection Window, the average change in degrees per millimeter may not be large enough to trigger a Dynamic Speed slowdown. This setting fixes this problem by splitting each long move into sections and treating them as separate moves. When set to true, every long move will be split into segments of the length set in the splitMinimumDistance setting. If splitting a long move does not trigger a Dynamic Speed change, the segments will be recombined. If you choose to split long moves into small segments, be aware that they may increase the size of your print file.

2 Minimum backlash inaccuracy

When you use the backlashFeedback setting, MakerBot Desktop compensates for increasingly small amounts of error over distance. The remaining error gets smaller and smaller, but is never fully compensated for. This setting fixes this problem by ending the backlash compensation when the remaining error becomes so small as to be insignificant. When the remaining error is smaller than the distance in millimeters set here, the slicer will stop compensating for backlash.

3 Backlash Feedback

MakerBot Desktop compensates for feedback gradually in order to reduce distortion. It will compensate for a certain amount of feedback over the distance set in splitMinimumDistance. The amount of feedback compensated for in each segment of the length set by splitMinimumDistance is a percentage inverse to the number set here. For example, if the default backlashFeedback setting is 0.90 and the default splitMinimumDistance is 0.40 mm, the slicer will compensate for 10% of the remaining feedback error over the first 0.40 mm after the change in direction. Then it will compensate for 10% of the remaining error over the next 0.40 mm. This will continue until the size of the error meets or falls below the distance set in backlashEpsilon. If backlashFeedback is set to 0.00, the entire error will be compensated for immediately.
