Compilation
The system will compile and link the program before running it. If the compiler
detects errors in the program, it will not run, but will print the line number at
which the error occurred. The line can be located by looking at the current line
number displayed in the bottom right of the Editor Window’s status bar or by
selecting Goto from the Edit Menu.

The Terminal Window provides a direct connection to the MC Unit. Most com-
mands, functions and parameter read/writes can be issued directly on the
command line.
Most of the functions that must be performed during the installation, program-
ming and final setup of a system with a MC Unit have been automated by the
options available in the Motion Perfect Menus. A Terminal Window is shown
