7.2.3 Unidrive SP Parameters View

Unidrive SP menu parameters as well as modify the value
of a menu parameter. Figure 66 shows an example of the
Unidrive SP Parameters view.
Figure 66: Unidrive SP Parameters View
To the view the menu parameters, PowerTools Pro must
upload the parameter values. To upload the parameters,
click on Get Menu Values on the right side of the view. The
values displayed are only the values at the time the "Get
Menu Values" button was selected. The values are NOT
continuously updating.
Get Menu Values Button
Click Get Menu Values and PowerTools Pro will read the
current value of all the parameters in the selected menu
and display them in the memory column. If the value in the
memory is different from the default value. The parameter
value will be highlighted in yellow in the default column.
7.2.4 SP Menu Initialization View
The SP Menu Initialization View is a utility to aid the user in
configuring the Unidrive SP base drive setup. Because the
Unidrive SP can operate in many different modes, and has
many different features, it must be put into a known state
so that the SM-EZMotion module can control it. To get into
this state, certain menu parameters must be set to specific
values. The SP Menu Initialization View is simply a list of
parameters that the SM-EZMotion module writes to the
Unidrive SP on powerup so that the Unidrive SP is in a
known state so the SM-EZMotion module can control it.
A default list of parameters is included so the user does not
need to enter each of these parameters by hand. The user
can modify the default list, adding new parameters or
removing some of the parameters. If the user makes
changes, and then wishes to revert back to the original
default list, the "Reset to Defaults" button will restore the
original list.
Figure 68 shows an example of the SP Menu Initialization
view.
