1. Disclaimer
Zaber's devices are not intended for use in any critical medical, aviation, or military applications or
situations where a product's use or failure could cause personal injury, death, or damage to
property. Zaber disclaims any and all liability for injury or other damages resulting from the use of
our products.
2. Precautions
The X-MCB2 controller is intended to drive a wide variety of stepper motors. If you are controlling
a third-party motor, you will need to configure settings to match the motor you are driving,
especially driver.current.run (T:38) and driver.current.hold (T:39). For a Zaber peripheral, simply
set the peripheralid (T:66) with the peripheral's ID number. See the detailed usage examples for
more information on how to modify the settings, particularly for non-Zaber peripherals. Damage to
the device may result if the settings are not correct.
WARNING: Serious damage can occur to stepper motor products when operated with
significantly higher-than-rated current. The X-MCB2 controller can provide up to 2A of current to a
peripheral. BEFORE CONNECTING A NEW DEVICE to the X-MCB2 controller, it is important to
set the correct motor parameters in the controller. Please check the rated current for any
peripheral device before changing the current settings on the X-MCB2 from the default values. To
put the X-MCB2 controller into safe-mode (low current) settings, configure the peripheralid (T:66)
setting to 0. If you have any questions, please contact Zaber Technical Support
3. Conventions used throughout this document
• Fixed width type indicates communication to and from a device. The
symbol indicates
a carriage return, which can be achieved by pressing enter when using a terminal program.
• An ASCII command followed by (T:xx) indicates a legacy T-Series Binary Protocol
command that achieves the same result. For example, move abs 10000 (T:20:10000) shows
that a move abs ASCII command can also be achieved with Binary command number 20.
Not all ASCII commands have an equivalent Binary counterpart.
