If this is the first time the MC Unit has been used with Motion Perfect and you
do not have any programs on the MC Unit, click the New Button in the Check
Project Options Window and then click the Yes Button when asked.
The New Project Window will open enabling you to enter the required name of
the new project and specify the directory on your computer in which to store
the project.
1. Type a suitable project name in the Project Name text box, and then use
the Disk Directory box to move to the directory in which to store the project.
2. If you wish to create a new directory on your computer, then move to the
parent directory and click on the Create Directory button. Type the name
of the new directory in the New Directory Window.
3. After selecting the required directory and entering the new project name,
click the Create Button.
4. If the project path and name already exist, a window will appear asking
whether to overwrite the existing project. If you confirm, the previous
project will be overwritten and lost.
5. When a new project has been created, the Check Project Window will be
displayed, with empty MC Unit Program and Project Program List Boxes
and a 'Project check OK' message. Click the Ok Button to continue.
You have now created a new project on your computer, the Motion Perfect
desktop will open, and all its facilities will be available.
Once Motion Perfect has verified that the contents of the controller and the
project on the computer are consistent, the Motion Perfect Desktop will
appear. The desktop work area of Motion Perfect is where you will open up
the windows to use when editing programs and using the Motion Perfect
tools. The general look of the desktop is displayed below.
