7.2 Troubleshooting
7.2.1 Programming Hints
• The Programmable Controller is responsible for storing the initialization parameters used by the
RMC and initializing the RMC with those parameters.
• The RMC provides a Status word for each axis. If an error bit is enabled in the Status word, the
Programmable Controller is responsible for shutting down the axis drive power. It must have a
watchdog timer that will shut down the drives if a time-out occurs.
• The PC should write to the RMC only once per scan, otherwise the newest data will overwrite the
previous data.
