any Technosoft drive for your application using only 2 dialogues. The output of
EasySetUp is a set of setup data that can be downloaded into the drive EEPROM or
saved on a PC file. At power-on, the drive is initialized with the setup data read from
its EEPROM. With EasySetUp it is also possible to retrieve the complete setup
information from a drive previously programmed. EasySetUp includes a firmware
programmer with allows you to update your drive firmware to the latest revision.

CANopen Programming (part no. P091.063.UM.xxxx) – explains how to program the
Technosoft intelligent drives using CANopen protocol and describes the associated
object dictionary for the DS-301 communication profile and the DSP-402 device
profile
Help of the EasyMotion Studio software – describes how to use the EasyMotion Studio
to create motion programs using in Technosoft Motion Language (TML). EasyMotion
Studio platform includes EasySetUp for the drive/motor setup, and a Motion
Wizard for the motion programming. The Motion Wizard provides a simple,
graphical way of creating motion programs and automatically generates all the TML
instructions. With EasyMotion Studio you can fully benefit from a key advantage of
Technosoft drives – their capability to execute complex motions without requiring an
external motion controller, thanks to their built-in motion controller. A demo version
of EasyMotion Studio (with EasySetUp part fully functional) can be
downloaded free of charge from Technosoft web page
