    Many of the problems that affect motion control systems can be traced to software errors, mistake in wiring, or electrical noise. In the event that your DMC5400 doesn’t operate properly, the first step is to identify whether the problem is software or hardware in nature. The next step is to isolate the system component that is causing the problem.
