MD-CC300-000: USB to SPI Parameter Setup Cable
The MD-CC300-000 USB to SPI Parameter Setup Cable with adapter MD-ADP-M23 provides a communication
connection between the 19-pin M23 connector on the
MDriveAC Plus Microstepping and the USB port on a
PC.
IMS SPI Interface Software communicates to the
Parameter Setup Cable through the PC's USB port.
The Parameter Setup Cable interprets SPI commands and
sends these commands to the MDrive through the SPI
interface.
Supplied Components: MD-CC300-000 Parameter
Setup Cable, USB Cable, USB Drivers, IMS SPI Interface
Software.
Installation Procedure for the MX-CC300-000
These Installation procedures are written for Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2. Users with earlier versions of
Windows please see the alternate installation instructions at the IMS web site (http://www.imshome.com).
The installation of the MD-CC300-000 requires the installation of two sets of drivers:
Drivers for the IMS USB to SPI Converter Hardware.
Drivers for the Virtual Communications Port (VCP) used to communicate to your IMS Product.
Therefore the Hardware Update wizard will run twice during the installation process.
The full installation procedure will be a two-part process: Installing the Cable/VCP drivers and Determining the
Virtual COM Port used.
Installing the Cable/VCP Drivers
1) Plug the USB Converter Cable into the USB port
of the MD-CC300-000.
2) Plug the other end of the USB cable into an open
USB port on your PC.
3) Your PC will recognize the new hardware and open
the Hardware Update dialog.
4) Select “No, not this time” on the radio buttons in
answer to the query “Can Windows Connect to
Windows Update to search for software?” Click
“Next” (Figure C.3).
