13. Professional Tuning Software ProTuner 

Introduction 

This  section  will  provide  an  overview  of  connection  and  basic  setup  instructions  for  Leadshine

digital stepping Drive DM870 using the 

ProTuner

 software. These instructions will walk you through 

the following steps necessary to start up your Drive and motor. This section is intended for setting up 

the Drive with the 

ProTuner

Software Installation 

The 

ProTuner

 is windows based setup software for tuning all the Leadshine

s digital Drives includes 

stepping  Drive  DM870.  It  can  run  in  windows  systems,  including  Win95/Win98/WindowsNT/ 

Windows  2000/Windows  XP.  And  the  selected  PC  should  have  1  serial  port  at  least  for 

communicating with the Drive. 

Double click 

ProTuner_All_Setup_V1.0.exe

 to begin installing the 

ProTuner

. See Figure 11. Click
