xTMy Set time multiplier factor y. Time multiplier to reduce stepping rate y times. Time period = time_in_seconds * time_multiplier. Frequency = 1/Time_period. Default y =1. Do not employ the command while stepper motor is moving. - Yes Yes
 
SYNTAX    xTMy, where x – controller (axis) number.
PARAMETER y [number].  
Range 1...2000.
DESCRIPTION: This command sets time multiplier factor. Motor speed can be reduced by y times. Therefore, the clocking time period increases y times. The parameter is used to set very slow motion (stepper motor rotation). Default value is 1.
Note: Consider TP and AG commands, as no trapezoidal profile and no autogearing is needed in this case. Current time multiplier factor can be tested (read) by xGP15 command.
RETURNS  none.
REL. COMMANDS none.
