SMC100CC & SMC100PP

Getting Started

This section guides the user through the proper set-up of the SMC100CC/PP motion
control system. When using the SMC100CC/PP controller ONLY in local control with
the SMC-RC keypad and NOT from a computer, you can skip this section and continue
reading in chapter 4.0, SMC100CC/PP with SMC-RC keypad. If not already done,
carefully unpack and visually inspect the controllers and the stages for any damage.
Place all components on a flat and clean surface.
No cables should be connected to the controller at this point!
First, the controller must be configured properly. When using several SMC100CC/PP
controllers from the same COM port through the internal RS-485 communication link,
an individual address must be set for each controller. Then, each controller must be
configured to the connected stage. For both steps, the software supplied with the
SMC100CC/PP is used.
