Version 1.7 of the AX2500/2850 software is configured with the factory defaults shown in the table below. Although Roboteq strives to keep the same parameters and values from one version to the next, changes may occur from one revision to the next. Make sure that you have the matching manual and software versions. These may be retrieved from the Roboteq web site. See “Configuring the Controller using the Switches” on page 153 of the User Manual for a complete configuration parameter list and their possible values.
