LaserParameters PolyDelay

A polygon delay is a delay that is automatically inserted between two marking segments. The minimum delay allows enough time for the galvos and mirror to “catch-up” with the command signal before a new command is issued to move on to the next point. If variable polygon delay mode is selected, then the delay is variable and changes as a function how large an angular change is required to move on to the next point. The larger the angular change, the longer it takes for the galvos to change direction and accelerate to the required speed in the new direction. The delay is scaled proportionally to the size of the angle.
