CAM using rotary shortest path?

$

If I use a Motion Axis Move (MAM) command on a rotary axis, I can specify "Move Type" to be "Rotary Shortest Path", which will allow me to get from say 350 degrees to 10 degrees by the shortest route, i.e. move 20 degrees rather than by moving 340 degrees.

I want to have the same behaviour in a CAM function but I can't work out how to achieve that - MATC accepts the angles but rather than move the shortest path, it takes the absolute path in a positive or negative direction.  Is there a way to achieve "Rotary Shortest Path" in a CAM?
