Notice that the eight Event Step number bits are wired to hold the following values:

When this binary number is converted to decimal, the selectable step numbers range is 16-25. The
reason bit 4 is tied high is to avoid using event step 0, without which the range would be 0-15.
Event step 0 is used—by convention—as a step which does nothing.

2. Program the Event Step table

We will use the steps selected by the thumb-wheel (16-25) to perform the first move. Each of those
ten steps will wait until the axis is in position, and then skip to step 15, which will retract back to the
home position, and then return to step 0 when in position. The following screen shot demonstrates
this table:

This table must be downloaded to the module, and then stored in the RMC’s Flash memory.

3. Configure the RMC Communication

The steps required for this procedure are described in the Implementation section of this Technical
Brief. You should not need to invert any inputs or outputs, nor should you need to select any
additional user-controlled outputs.
