Introduction
The sample in this manual takes you through five steps, showing you how to com-
mission a fully functional application for running the drive. You are going to get ac-
quainted with the basic hardware and software functions and learn how to deter-
mine and verify the application-dependent parameters in this sample. References
to the manual should give you an initial overview of the information it contains.
Usually it is going to take no more than one or two hours to work through this sam-
ple, depending on experience.
