Confirming Drive Operation
With the drive and motor correctly wired and the serial connection made to a PC running
Easi-V software, the operation of a drive may be confirmed by creating and downloading the
following code:
Before running this code return the drive to its factory settings and save those settings – see
returning a drive to its factory settings in Maintenance & Troubleshooting section.
*Define motor using MOTOR command*
1START: ; define start label code
1ON ; enable the drive
1LIMITS(3,0,0) ; disable limits
1D4000 ; set distance to 4000 steps
1V1 ; set velocity to 1rev/s

1GOTO(START) ; execute start code block
WARNING
Clamp the motor in a secure position before testing the drive.
Upon execution of this code, the motor should perform 4000 steps and stop. The successful
operation of this code confirms the drive is working correctly. If this does not happen, refer
to the Troubleshooting Section.
