Generating the Drive Parameter Files
The Generate Configuration command can be used to create the

drive parameter object files (.POB) for all UDCs in the rack. To create

the drive parameter files, choose the Generate Drive Parameter Files

option. A file named PARAMXX.POB will be created, where XX is the

slot number of the UDC module. The drive parameters must be

loaded onto the UDC(s) in the rack before or at the same time UDC

application tasks are loaded. See 14.3 for information about loading

the drive parameter files.
You can print the drive parameters for a UDC module by using the

Print command from the Rack menu in the System Configurator.
