Revision A8 www.controltechniques.com
x.02 – Option Software Version
This parameter indicates EZMotion firmware revision that is currently stored in the module. It is possible for the user to flash
upgrade the firmware using PowerTools Pro software.
The format for this parameter is XX.YY where XX is the major revision and YY is the minor revision. The firmware is released
by Control Techniques using an alphanumeric revision code. The first fully released revision is A1.
Anything with a major revision of 50 or greater is considered non-released firmware. When Beta firmware is made available for
testing, it is given a beta firmware revision starting at 60.01. The beta firmware revision will increment for each new beta
release that is made available (e.g. 60.02, 60.03, etc.).
Example:
x.13 – EZOutput.1.Status
This parameter shows the status of digital Output #1 on EZMotion. A value of 1 indicates that the Output is active. A value of 0
indicates that the Output is inactive. This equates Pin # 6 on the EZMotion I/O Connector.
x.14 – EZOutput.2.Status
This parameter shows the status of digital Output #2 on EZMotion. A value of 1 indicates that the Output is active. A value of 0
indicates that the Output is inactive. This equates Pin # 7 on the EZMotion I/O Connector.
x.17 – EZInput.1.Status
This parameter shows the status of digital Input #1 on EZMotion. A value of 1 indicates that the Input is active. A value of 0
indicates that the Input is inactive. This equates Pin # 2 on the EZMotion I/O Connector.
x.18 – EZInput.2.Status
This parameter shows the status of digital Input #2 on EZMotion. A value of 1 indicates that the Input is active. A value of 0
indicates that the Input is inactive. This equates Pin # 3 on the EZMotion I/O Connector.
x.19 – EZInput.3.Status
This parameter shows the status of digital Input #3 on EZMotion. A value of 1 indicates that the Input is active. A value of 0
indicates that the Input is inactive. This equates Pin # 4 on the EZMotion I/O Connector.
x.20 – EZInput.4.Status
This parameter shows the status of digital Input #4 on EZMotion. A value of 1 indicates that the Input is active. A value of 0
indicates that the Input is inactive. This equates Pin # 5 on the EZMotion I/O Connector.
x.48 – System Status
The System Status parameter is used to indicate the status of each of the User Program Tasks and Motion Profiles. This
parameter can give the user some idea of what EZMotion is commanding without being online using PowerTools Pro.
There are six individual digits that indicate the status of different processes. This parameter will display a six digit number that
can be used in conjunction with the graphic below to determine the status of each process. Leading zeros in the value are not
displayed.
Firmware Revision Parameter x.02 Value
A1 1.01
A3 1.03
B1 2.01
Beta Y1 60.01
