As a simple first test, try entering:
/
renumber
(
T:2
)
/1
home
(
T:1
)
/1
move rel
10000 (
T:21:10000
)
The parameter of 10000 in the move command above specifies 10000 microsteps. To see the
microstep size (default resolution) for the device and how it translates to displacement, first go to
the
product overview
page, find your device, click through to the device's webpage, and click on the
"Series Specs" tab. The microstep size (default resolution) will be shown in the list of product specs
either in the "Group Specifications" section or the "Comparison" section.
Daisy-Chaining Devices
Multiple devices can be connected together in a chain through the Prev and Next connectors. This
allows any number of devices to be controlled from a single connection to a computer, reducing
cabling demands. In addition, X-Series devices carry power through the daisy chain, so in most
cases a power supply only needs to be connected to one device in the chain. Whenever a device is
added or removed from a chain, a
renumber
(
T:2
) command should be sent to prevent device-
address conflicts.
To daisy-chain X-Series devices with T-Series and A-Series devices:
