ANTI_SWAY_CTRL

Load anti-sway: a ZV input shaper timed to the live pendulum period, plus rope-angle feedback damping.

When to use it

Use ANTI_SWAY_CTRL when a crane carries its load on ropes and the swing has to be suppressed — either open-loop from the rope length alone, or closed-loop where a sway sensor or camera measures the rope angle.
