have programmable equivalents (refer to the Kinesis Server helpfile for further details).
Select Persist Setting to the Device - Many of the parameters that can be set for the PDXC2 controller
can be stored (persisted) within the unit itself, such that when the unit is next powered up these settings are
applied automatically. This is particularly important when the driver is being used manually in the absence of a
PC and USB link. The Velocity Profile and Jogging parameters described previously are good examples of settings
that can be altered and then persisted in the driver for use in absence of a PC. To save the settings to hardware,
check the ‘Persist Settings to the Device’ checkbox before clicking the ‘OK button.
Closed Loop Parameters – These parameters are only used for closed loop movement. PID parameters can
be used for jog and Set Move, but reference speed and acceleration are only used for Set Move.
Jog parameters - There are three parts for jog parameters:
1. Mode select for jog operation: There are two modes (single step, continuous) for jog operation; can be
used for open loop or closed loop mode.
2. Open loop jog move parameters: The step size (in steps), step rate, and acceleration can be set; only used
for open loop mode.
3. Closed loop jog move parameters: The step size (in mm), speed, and acceleration can be set; only used
for closed loop mode.
