This page discusses:

Optionally, you can include a parameter table of type "ABQ_AM_ThermoMech_PatternBased_Advanced" in the table collection. The table can define only one set of data.

Parameter Table Type Definition

PARAMETER TABLE TYPE, NAME="ABQ_AM_ThermoMech_PatternBased_Advanced", PARAMETERS=2
 STRING, "SWEEP", "Activation Technique", , "SWEEP|LAYERBYLAYER",
 INTEGER, 1, "Number of Slices per Time Increment", , ,

Parameters

Activation Technique
Set to "LAYERBYLAYER" to apply heat energy to all elements of a layer/slice simultaneously. Set to "SWEEP" to apply heat energy to elements following the scan pattern. This option has an effect only when the increment size is less than the time taken to complete printing one layer.
Number of Slices per Time Increment
Set to the number of layers that will be completed within one increment by automatically adjusting the time increment size.
