12. Troubleshooting
If your drive does not operate properly, the first step is to identify whether the problem is electrical or mechanical in
nature. The next step is to isolate the system component that is causing the problem. As part of this process you may
have to disconnect the individual components that make up your system and verify that they operate independently. It
is important to document each step in the troubleshooting process. You may need this documentation to refer back to at
a later date, and these details will greatly assist our Technical Support staff in determining the problem should you need
assistance.
Many of the problems that affect motion control systems can be traced to electrical noise, controller software errors, or
mistake in wiring.
