In the Command area of the RMCWin display, select the correct axis and enter the
following (see Figure 3):

MODE

0x0001

ACCEL

10

DECEL

10

SPEED

0

COMMAND VALUE

100

These values cause the output voltage to change to 100 mV at a rate of 10 mV/ms.

Figure 3. Initial values to verify drive.

Note: Be prepared to stop the system with the

button or ALT+K. Both issue a

Kill (K) command, which will set the drive output to 0 volts.

Send an open loop command by typing O and then ENTER in the Command field
or by pressing ALT+SHIFT+O. You should see the value of DRIVE in the status
area of the RMCWin display change to 100. You should be able to measure
roughly 100 mV with a voltmeter on the drive output connector.

Observe the COUNTS value in the RMCWin display Status Area, and note whether
the value is increasing or decreasing.

One of three things could have happened at this point:

1. The actuator moved and the COUNTS increased. In this case you are ready to

go to the next section and set the SCALE.

2. The actuator moved and the COUNTS decreased. In this case you must use the

Reverse Drive Mode bit in the CONFIG parameter to reverse the direction.
Double click on the CONFIG parameter, check the Reverse Drive Mode option

in the dialog box (see Figure 4). Click OK, and then click the

to initialize

the RMC100.
