PIMikroMove™ Windows PIMikroMove™ permits
you to start your motion
system—host PC,
controller and
stage(s)—immediately
without the need to write
customized software. It
offers motion-control
displays and features
that in many cases make
it unnecessary to deal
with ASCII-format
commands. It also has a
complete command
input facility, which
represents an easy way
to experiment with
various commands.
PIMikroMove™ uses the
GCS DLL described
above to command the
controller.
Note that the program
offers comprehensive
online support.
Users who want to
test the equipment
before or instead of
programming an
application and who
want to learn how
to use the
commands. For
motor controllers,
PIMikroMove™
offers an easy way
to optimize the
servo parameters.
