Meterset (and Meterset Weight)¶

The Cumulative Meterset Weight is a factor used to determine at what point in the beam delivery the next change in setup is to take place. If you want to be really confused take a look at C.8.8.14.1 of PS 3.3, but boiled down, if you pick a Final Cumulative Meterset Weight (300A,00B3) of 100, then the cumulative meterset weight merely identifies what percentage of the beam is delivered prior to that control point.
