Intelligent Motion Systems MDrive34AC manual

Figure GS.2: MDriveAC Plus CD

WARNING!

Because the MDrive consists of two core

components, a drive and a motor, close attention must be paid to the thermal environment where the device is used. See Thermal Specifications.

Connecting Parameter Setup Cable

Connect the Host PC to the MDriveAC Plus Microstepping using the IMS Parameter Setup Cable or equivalent.

Install the IMS SPI Motor Interface

The IMS SPI Motor Interface is a utility that easily allows you to set up the parameters of your MDriveAC Plus Microstepping. It is available both on the MDriveAC Plus CD that came with your product and on the IMS web site at http://www.imshome.com/software_interfaces.html.

1.Insert the CD into the CD Drive of your PC. If the CD is not available, go to http://www.imshome. com/software_interfaces.html.

2.The CD will auto-start.

3.Click the Software Button in the top-right navigation Area.

4.Click the IMS SPI Interface link appropriate to your operating system.

5.Click SETUP in the Setup dialog box and follow the on-screen instructions.

6.Once IMS SPI Motor Interface is installed, the MDriveAC Plus Microstepping settings can be checked and/or set.

Once installed you can change the motor run current, holding current, microstep resolution and other configura- tion settings. By sending clock pulses to the drive you can now change these settings safely on the fly as the IMS SPI Motor interface will not allow you to set an out of range value.
