MOTIONLINK Installation
Installing on PC
• Insert the SERVOSTAR PSP CD-ROM to load MOTIONLINK for
Windows
• The CD-ROM should AUTORUN. If not, select Start | Run (or browse your
CD-ROM drive)
• Type “D:AUTORUN.EXE” and hit the Enter key (this assumes your CD
player has a D: letter designation).
• Select a product and follow the instructions on the screen.
Running the Program
• Go to your Start/Programs listing and select SERVOSTAR
MOTIONLINK from the menu (or click on the SERVOSTAR
MOTIONLINK icon if loaded on the desktop).
Using MOTIONLINK
MOTIONLINK gives you three methods to configure the drive. The first uses
the Startup screen and is the easiest and most highly recommended approach. Its
main purpose is for initial startups. The second approach allows you to more
indirectly perform the same configuration as the first using the Main
MOTIONLINK screen. This method is most convenient when corrections to an
existing configuration is needed. The third method uses the Terminal Mode
screen to directly set (or monitor) values for the same variables and commands
that the other two methods configure through a more friendly user interface.
You can gain a more thorough understanding of the SERVOSTAR drive,
MOTIONLINK, and its variable and command set by using the context-
sensitive Help (F1) provided in MOTIONLINK.
MOTIONLINK Startup Wizard
This screen appears the first time (and any time after should you leave it
selected) MOTIONLINK is run on a PC. It is designed to guide you through a
step-by-step approach to configure a drive. Click the “START” button on the
first user screen and walk through the complete sequence of buttons provided to
set the drive, motor, and application (Opmode, Tune, Backup, Go) variable
parameters.
