Terminator

This parameter defines the terminator to be used in communication with a
host computer or a terminal. As described in the Remote Mode section, the
controller responds to command lines, not characters. In order for a com-
mand to be acted upon, it must be followed by the terminator.
The MM4006 controller offers a choice of four command line terminators
which are combinations of line-feeds and carriage-returns: LF, CR, CR/LF
and LF/CR.
To change the existing selection from the General Setup menu, press

Communication Time-out

This parameter represents the time duration the controller will wait when

To change the existing value, from the General Setup menu, press
until the parameter appears on the display. Press

HOME Time-out

This parameter sets the time duration for which the controller will wait for
each axis to complete a home search routine. Since the controller cannot be
interrupted during a home search, this parameter provides a time-out in case
of malfunction.
Use this parameter with discretion. A small value will cause the controller to
falsely report an error when the stage starts a home search cycle from an
until the Terminator parameter appears on the display. Press
and then the key until the desired terminator is selected.
