FireWire Daisy Chain
Before connecting any device to the FireWire bus, the
device should be powered up and tested independently to
prevent damaging interconnected drives.
Ndrive HLs, CPs, HPs, MPs, Nservos, Nsteps and Npaqs
should always have their FireWire cables connected in a
star configuration to minimize the FireWire cable lengths,
see Figure 2-17.
2.9. PC Configuration and Operation Information
The Getting Started Guide (PN: EDU175), included with the Nmotion SMCs software
package, provides a quick start guide with basic information. The Nview help included
with the software provides additional information for configuring the Ndrive HL to the
PC as well as information on hardware requirements, getting started, utilities and system
operation, and on using the Nview HMI user application.
