  • Page 16: System Commands

    System Commands Device Identification Query Command: *IDN? Description: Identification query. Determines the nature of device located at a given address on the network. The string returned ("ETS-Lindgren Inc.,2303 Precision Positioner,<Module Name>,PCA120518 FW N.NN”) identifies this device as a 2303 Precision Positioner. The <Module Name>...
  • Page 17 Module Subnet Mask Command: MOD:NETMASK <nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn> Description: The device default IP address and subnet mask is 192.168.0.100, 255.255.255.0. This address and mask are assigned to the device by ETS-Lindgren and does not change even if your computer reboots. The subnet mask can be changed using the MOD:NETMASK command.
  • Page 18: Control Commands

    Control Commands Acceleration in Milliseconds Command: A <nnnn> Description: Acceleration setting for variable speed devices. The number nnnn represents the time in milliseconds for the positioner to reach max speed. For high inertial loads, a longer acceleration time might be required. Query: Returns: The time in milliseconds for the positioner to reach max speed.
  • Page 19 Homing Procedure Command: HOME Description: The device has a mechanical home sensor. Every time the positioner is turned on, a home procedure must be performed so the current position is known by the firmware. To home the positioner, send the following commands: HOME *OPC? Keep querying the positioner by sending the *OPC? until it returns 1.
  • Page 20 Move Counterclockwise Command: Description: Instructs the positioner to move in the counterclockwise direction. This movement is limited by the counterclockwise (lower) limit. Example: AXIS2:CCW Scan Command: SCAN Description: Instructs the positioner to begin scanning between preset lower and upper limits. Example: AXIS1:SCAN Seek Negative...
  • Page 21 Seek Relative Command: SKR [+|-]nnn.n Description: Instructs the device to begin seeking the specified target value relative to the current position. The specified value is added to the current position to obtain the target position. Thus, a positive value will cause up/clockwise motion and a negative value will cause down/counterclockwise motion.
  • Page 22 Stop Motion Command: Description: Causes device motion to stop. Example: AXIS1-2:ST Trigger Configuration Command: TRIGGER (<ON|OFF>, <step size>,<reference>,<pre trigger delay>, <pulse length>,<post trigger delay>,<polarity>) Description: Use this command to configure the trigger. Where step size is the angular distance between trigger pulses in degrees, reference position is one of the positions where a trigger should occur (not necessarily a starting position), pre-trigger delay is the time between reaching the target encoder position and producing a trigger pulse, trigger pulse length is the active period of the trigger pulse, post trigger delay is the...

  • Page 27: Background Information

    Background Information Preparing a computer for connection is relatively simple if you have an Ethernet adapter installed. An Ethernet adapter, also called a network card, network interface card, or network interface controller, provides a physical port for networking mediums such as Ethernet cables. It also communicates with the computer and allows it to access a network device.

  • Page 29 Right click on the Ethernet adapter you intend to configure, and select “Properties.” (Ensure you are logged into an administrator account to change the configuration.)
  • Page 30 Select “Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)", then click “Properties”. Select “Use the following IP address”, then enter the addresses as follows: IP address: 192.168.0.1 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Default gateway: blank Select “Use the following DNS server addresses” and leave Preferred and Alternate DNS server fields blank.
  • Page 31: Multiple Devices In A Lan

    Multiple Devices in a LAN When using more than one positioner, there is no need for a separate server for each positioner. An Ethernet switch can be used to connect as many devices as necessary to a single computer. Such a configuration requires each device have a unique IP address.
