4.4. Periodic Cycling of Devices Over Full Range of Travel
Caution
Periodically, devices should be moved over the full range of travel, from one end to the other. This will help minimize
the build up of debris on the track and will prevent the motors digging a groove over the most used area of contact.
Typically, a travel cycle should be performed every 10K operations.
4.5. Restoring Factory Settings
Factory settings can be restored during the start up (calibration) test as follows:
1. Remove power from the stage.
2. Press and hold the BW button (do not release until item 6).
3. POWER UP
4. WAIT for red led to switch off
5. Press and hold the FW button to request a reload of factory values (do not release until item 7 is complete).
6. Release BW to reboot
7. Continue to hold the FW button until the stage stops moving and the red LED switches off, then release.
8. Press the BW button to home the stage.
4.6. Simultaneous Movement of Devices
If more than one device is connected to the comms bus, movement of the devices can be synchronized. This can
be achieved either by using the handset, or by software. See the protocol document for details on how to use the
‘ga’ message to synchronize moves. If using the handset, synchronized movement is hard wired, so if multiple
devices are connected, pressing the FWD or BWD buttons will move all devices.
