4.2 Using MacTalk to setup the motor
4.2.6 Motor "TEST" function
When setting up a servo system its convenient to test the that the motor movement is
stable and smooth.
For this purpose the TEST tab can be used.
At this tab its possible to setup the motor in position mode and define 2 positions where
the motor can move cyclic in between. A delay between each motion can also be de-
fined.
The speed and acceleration used during this process is the general parameters defined at
the Main tab. All parameters can be changed dynamically during operation.

Please notice that the movement is fully controlled by MacTalk.
If the communication cable is unplugged the movement will stop at the last demanded
position. Also some slight timing variations may exist depending at the windows opera-
tion system and which other application running at the PC at the same time.
Important: Make sure that no other communication takes place, when using the Test
