Commands are sent to the controller in ASCII code and terminated by a carriage return (CR). All commands,
except for the B command, must be preceded by the axis select code (U,V,W,X,Y,Z). The B command does
not require the select code, as it is used to activate all axes simultaneously. The ASCII codes used to com-
mand the controller are shown below.
RS-232 Commands
The following are the RS-232 commands, where X is the selected axis:
xSnn.nn Specify step size or absolute position.
xFnn.nn Specify feed rate in units/second.
xGnn Specify G code.
xLnnn Specify loop count.
xP Specify servo status or position.
(This command causes the addressed controller to respond with the servo position if
normal operation is possible or otherwise with the servo status.)
xB Begin programmed step on X-axis.
B Begin programmed step on all axes at once.
xH Return to HOME position or use home offset.
xC Clear servo position to zero and establish zero.
xO Turn servo on.
xE Turn servo off.
RS-232 Responses
The xP command is presently the only command that responds with data. It will return a single line consisting
of:
xnnn.nnn (servo at standstill at position nnn.nnn ) OR
xnnn.nnnR (servo in motion past position nnn.nnn ) OR
xOn (servo is off with reason n ) OR
xLn (servo HOME position lost with reason n )
