Example:
U-Turn for
S-shaped Ramps
When VACTUAL = 0 is reached, motion immediately continues. In most S-shaped
ramp applications that do not use VSTOP, a standstill phase is not required.
If ASTART > 0 and/or DFINAL > 0, these parameters are also used during U-Turn.

There is one exception to the above explained U-Turn process:

Profile for
In case BOW2 equals BOW4, the S-shaped ramp is not stopped at VACTUAL = 0.
While passing VACTUAL = 0, motion acceleration does not equal 0. Thus, the fastest
possible U-Turn behavior for this ramp is created.
