RS232 interface, PC connection (X8), master only
The setting of the operating, position control, and motion-block parameters, can be car-
ried out by using the setup software on an ordinary commercial PC.
Connect the PC interface (X8) of the servo amplifier
while the supply to the equipment
is switched off
via a null-modem cable to a serial interface on the PC
(do not use a
null-modem link cable!)
.
The interface has the same potential as the internal logic, and uses AGND as the ground
reference.
The interface is selected and set up in the setup software.
Further notes can be found on page 34 .
