• MagneMotion ML Configurator (Configurator) – A Windows software application
supplied by MagneMotion to create or change the Node Controller Configuration File,
the Track File, and Track Layout File for MagneMover LITE transport systems, with-
out editing the files directly.
• Virtual Scope Utility – A Windows software application supplied by MagneMotion
to monitor and record the change of performance parameters displayed as waveforms
to analyze the performance of the transport system.
• Demonstration Script (Demo Script) – A text file ( demo_script .txt) uploaded to the
NCHost TCP Interface Utility to move vehicles (pucks) on the transport system for
test or demonstration purposes.
• Node Controller Image File (IMG file) – The software files for the Node Controllers
(controller_image), includes the Node Controller and High Level Controller applica-
tions. The Node Controller Image File is uploaded to all Node Controllers in the trans-
port system.
• Motor Image Files (ERF file) – The software files for the motors ( motor_image .erf).
The Motor Image Files are uploaded to all Node Controllers in the transport system
and then programmed into all motors.
• Motor Type Files – XML files ( motor_type .xml) that contain basic information about
the specific MagneMover LITE motor types being used. The Motor Type Files are
uploaded to all Node Controllers in the transport system.
• Magnet Array Type Files – XML files ( magnet_array_type .xml) that contain basic
information about the specific MagneMotion magnet array type used on the vehicles
(pucks) in the MagneMover LITE transport system. The Magnet Array Type File is
uploaded to all Node Controllers in the transport system.
• Node Controller Configuration File (Configuration File) – An XML file (node_con-
figuration.xml) that contains all of the parameters for the components in the transport
system. The Node Controller Configuration File is uploaded to all Node Controllers in
the transport system.
• Track Layout File – An XML file ( track_layout .ndx) that contains all of the parame-
ters for the graphical representation of a MagneMover LITE transport system. The
Track Layout File can be used by the Configurator to generate the Node Controller
Configuration File and the Track File.
• Track File – A text file ( track_file .mmtrk) that contains graphical path and motor
information about the transport system. The Track File is used by the NCHost TCP
Interface Utility to provide a graphical representation of the transport system. The
Track File is created for MagneMover LITE transport systems using the MagneMotion
Configurator.
NOTICE
Modifying the Image or Type files could cause improper operation of the
transport system.
