Description
Motor check command
Syntax
MC
Remarks
This command scans for motors connected to the controller, and sets the motor type based on
its findings. If the piezo motor is found to be type ‘Tiny’ then velocity (VA) setting is
automatically reduced to 1750 if previously set above 1750. To accomplish this task, the
controller commands each axis to make a one-step move in the negative direction followed by a
similar step in the positive direction. This process is repeated for all the four axes starting with
the first one. If this command is issued when an axis is moving, the controller will generate
“MOTION IN PROGRESS” error message.
NOTE: Motor type and velocity changes are NOT automatically saved to non-volatile
memory. Issue the Save (SM) command after motor check to save all changes.
NOTE: Here is a command sequence which disables auto-motor type detection and sets
motor 1 (for example) to type ‘Standard’: 1ZZ1;1QM3;1SM
Example
MC
(check all motors to determine type)
SM
(save new settings to memory)
