- Ramp Feed Rate : Can either be the current vertical or horizontal feed rate or some other custom value
- Angle : Angle of the ramp against the vertical axis. A smaller value makes the ramp steeper.
- Method : Used to select different modes of ramping:
- RampMethod1: goes down at the ramp angle and the moves horizontal to the target point
- RampMethod2: goes horizontal first and then down at the ramp angle to the target point
- RampMethod3: goes down in a zigzag way
- Helix: goes down spiraling
- Dressup Start Depth : The distance above the target level where ramping starts
- Use Start Depth : Indicates that the ramping does not start above the stock level. If it is not set to true the first ramp can be steeper than expected.
