(2) These are the maximum movements allowed per iteration, for each degree of freedom. Rotations are in degrees. The default values are shown below.

Default values are:   2.00, 2.00, 0.50, 0.573, 0.573, 1.432    (G=9.81)

To take account of different unit systems Aqwa multiplies the default translation values only by G/9.81, where G is the value of gravity input in Data Category 5. These defaults will be over-written by any values input on the MMVE data record, but Aqwa does not apply any additional factors; i.e. the value on the data record is the value that is used.
