Writing a program with a line editor

HyperTerminal (Windows application) can be used as a line editor to write a program.
While using HyperTerminal, command inputs to HyperTerminal are saved to the controller in real
time.
1. See section 6.3, "Starting and exiting HyperTerminal," to connect the controller with your computer
and start HyperTerminal.
2. Type in "EDIT∗" (∗ represents a program).
Insert a space between "EDIT" and the program number.
Once the entry is made, a message "Empty... Direct Insert Mode" appears, indicating that the
program is empty. You can now write a new program.
3. See section 8, "Communication command," to enter commands and parameters in order to write
a program.
The example program below shows the program number 1 specifying a starting speed of 100Hz,
operating speed of 3,000Hz, distance of 6,000 pulses and + (CW) direction.
To complete the writing of a program, type in "Q" or press the ESC key.
