812 Initializing Your Motion Controller
To initialize the software in the motion controller, use the i CODE .I (period
followed by “I”) command. Download this command to the controller in
one of the following ways:
• Enter it directly using the Terminal Window.
After downloading this command, be sure to press and release the
controller’s RESET button to complete the download of the default
parameters.
Default Data Parameters
When the i CODE .I command is executed and the controller reset, the
default values for all data parameters are restored. Both the working and
power-up values of the parameters for all axes are set to the values shown
in the Default column of the Data Parameters table in Appendix A of this
manual.
Default Data Bits
When the i CODE .I command (Initialize Control) is executed the default
values are set for the Data Bits and any values previously entered for the
bits are overwritten. Both the working and power-up values of the data
bits for all axes are set to the values shown in the default column of the
Data Bits Table in Appendix A of this manual.
Other Default Conditions
In addition to setting the working and power-up data parameters and data
bits to the values shown in the previous tables, the
.I command also
initializes the following items.
• The position units (normally entered in the Units page of the
Configure Axis Use dialog box) are set to Revs.
• The application ID string (usually entered in the Diagram
Documentation dialog box) is set to App Name.
• The setup menu password (usually entered in the General page of the
Configure Control Options dialog box) is reset to SET.
