Main Menu

This section describes all of the functions under the Main Menu in detail. The main menu
contains functions and commands that affect the controller, or affects all of the devices chained
to the controller.

4.1 User Step

This command lets the user specify a step size to move the actuator for each click of the rotary
knob. The step size is selected on the bottom line of main control screen. The standard sizes of
50000, 20000, 10000, 5000, 2000, 1000, 500, 200, 100, 50, 20, 10, 5, 2, and 1. However,
sometimes the user may want to move a preset number of microsteps in a step-and-repeat type
operation. This function allows the user to set a custom step size from 1 to 99999.

Simply turn the rotary knob to change the currently highlighted digit. Press the button next to
the line to advance the blinking cursor to the next digit. When satisfied, press "Ok" to set the
custom step size, or press "Back" to cancel.
On the main control screen, select the bottom most line, and turn the rotary knob counter-
clockwise until the lower left-hand corner displays "User" instead of "Step". Now, select one of
the actuators and each click of the rotary knob will move the actuator by the user-specified
amount shown on the bottom line.
