KMS MA-5 manual

Version 5.1

2 Software installation

The KMS Motor management software can be found at the download section on our website:
kms.vankronenburg.nl/downloads

In case there is a firmware update for the MA5 available then you will need the KMS firmware
downloader, this can also be found on our download section:
kms.vankronenburg.nl/downloads

Once installed, the program is set to work via communication port COM1. If this port is already being
used or not available, another communication port can be used. For the procedure to change the
communication port, see

Communicationport

(USB connections have the most various number

s of communication ports, so make sure you’ve got

the communication port right. For settings and finding the right communication port see
