Gemini GT6 Hardware Installation Guide
Step 3 – Configuring the Drive
Gemini drives have no DIP switches or potentiometers for configuration. You will
use software tools to communicate with the drive and configure drive settings.
Configuration Software
Two software programs are located on the Motion Planner CD-ROM. Motion
Planner runs on a personal computer (PC). Pocket Motion Planner runs on a palm
PC or Handheld Personal Computer (HPC) that uses Windows CE 2.0 or higher,
or on a PC. These programs are also available on the Compumotor web site at
http://www.compumotor.com.
Information about installing and using each of these software tools can be found in
the Gemini Programmer's Reference.
Establishing Communications
We assume you are using a Gemini GT6 drive and that you have only one serial
port on your PC.
WARNING
This procedure causes the motor shaft to move. Do not connect a load to the shaft.
1. Verify that a load is not connected to the motor, and that the motor is clamped
securely in place.
2. Verify that a cable is not attached to the DRIVE I/O connector.
3. Using a null modem cable, connect the drive’s RS-232/485 connector to the serial
port on your PC, palm PC, or HPC. (A null modem cable is available from Compu-
motor. See
Appendix A Specifications for more information.) It is not necessary to
turn off AC power before you plug in an RS-232 cable; however, connect RS-485
cables
before applying AC power.
4. Install and launch Motion Planner or Pocket Motion Planner.
Proceed to Configuring the Drive.
