DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
The SmartMotor™ is designed to be used as much in multiple-axis systems as in single-axis
systems. For that reason, each SmartMotor can be uniquely addressed through the ADDR
command. Used within a program, ADDR permits an identical program stored in different
motors to differentiate between motors and provide individual runtime controls. For example,
ADDR=5 sets the motor’s address to 5.
ADDR is a read/write function, so it can also be used to access the address of the current
SmartMotor. For example, to read the motor address, use the following ADDRcommand:
var=ADDR
where var is any variable. Then you can use the PRINT(var) command to print the motor's
serial address to the Terminal window.
To set the motor'sserial address to the CAN address, use the following ADDR command:
<SerialMotorNumber>ADDR=CADDR
For example, 3ADDR=CADDR sets the motor 3 serial address to its CAN address;
0ADDR=CADDR would globally set every serial motor's address to its CANaddress.
NOTE: SmartMotor commands like 0CADDR=... or 0ADDR=... with a leading
number really send a corresponding address byte (i.e., "0", which is hex 80 or
decimal 128). This can be seen by viewing the serial data with the Serial Data
Analyzer ("sniffer") tool, which is available on the SMI software View menu.
