Baldor MN1851 manual Plotting of Move, Control Window, Graphic Screen, Jog Block, Initiate Move

Plotting of Move

At any time after the setup parameters are downloaded to the control, you may proceed to the plotting routine. Plot allows you to verify that the parameter values you entered provide adequate system response.

In this section, you will inform the software what move to perform. You will enter time (for the move), direction (CW or CCW) and speed. It is recommended that you start with low speeds and short time periods (i.e. 0.5 sec) until you get a feel for your system.

Control Window

Enter the parameter values using the Pole Placement menu and click the “Download” button. Refer to Figure A-16 for details.
