Verify t h a t t e h m o t i o n device
installed i s c o n n e c t e d t o t h e
proper driver card.
Verify that all setup parameters
correspond to the actual motion
device installed.
Verify that t h e load specifica-
tions for the motion device are
not being exceeded.
Incorrect con-
nection
Incorrect para-
meters
Verify that the motion device is
connected to the correct driver
card, as specified by the labels.
Verify that all relevant parame-
ters (PID, velocity, etc.) are set
properly.
System perfor-
mance below
expectations
Incorrect con-
nection
Verify that the motion device is
connected to the correct driver
card, as specified by the labels.
Incorrect para-
meters
Verify that all relevant parame-
ters (PID, velocity, etc.) are set
properly.
Motor excessively
hot
Incorrect con-
nection
Verify that the motion device is
connected to the correct driver
card, as specified by the labels.
Move command
not executed
Software travel
limit
The software travel limit in the

ters (PID, velocity, etc.) are set
properly.
Home search not
completed
Time-out too
short
Verify the home search time-out
is s e t c o r r e c t l y. I f t h e h o m e
search velocity was changed, the
time-out must be increased.
Faultry origin or
index signals
Carefully observe and record the
motion sequence by watching the
manual knob rotation, i f avail-
