To view the current values for each command, type the command followed by a ? for each axis requested.

PR 1000	Specify A only as 1000
PR ,2000	Specify B only as 2000
PR ,,3000	Specify C only as 3000
PR ,,,4000	Specify D only as 4000
PR 2000, 4000,6000, 8000	Specify A,B,C and D
PR ,8000,,9000	Specify B and D only
PR ?,?,?,?	Request A,B,C,D values
PR ,?	Request B value only

The DMC-2x00 provides an alternative method for specifying data. Here data is specified individually using a single axis specifier such as A, B, C or D. An equals sign is used to assign data to that axis. For example:

PRA=1000	Specify a position relative movement for the A axis of 1000
ACB=200000	Specify acceleration for the B axis as 200000

Instead of data, some commands request action to occur on an axis or group of axes. For example, ST AB stops motion on both the A and B axes. Commas are not required in this case since the particular axis is specified by the appropriate letter A, B, C or D. If no parameters follow the instruction, action will take place on all axes. Here are some examples of syntax for requesting action:

BG A	Begin A only
BG B	Begin B only
BG ABCD	Begin all axes
BG BD	Begin B and D only
BG	Begin all axes

For controllers with 5 or more axes, the axes are referred to as A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H.

BG ABCDEFGH	Begin all axes
BG D	Begin D only

Coordinated Motion with more than 1 axis

When requesting action for coordinated motion, the letter S and T are used to specify coordinated motion planes. For example:

BG S	Begin coordinated sequence, S
BG TW	Begin coordinated sequence, T, and D axis
