B.2 Getting Started / Common Features
B.2.1 Introduction
Moog WinDrive is a graphical user interface (GUI) application that is used to configure Moog Servo-Drives. It has
been developed to provide a common “look and feel” for configuring a wide range of Moog controllers. For each
controller or controller family there is a corresponding configuration within WinDrive. A particular configuration is
chosen on startup of WinDrive. The chosen configuration will determine which controller specific dialogs and
panels are displayed within WinDrive and which protocol is used to communicate with the controller.
B.2.2 Starting WinDrive
From the Windows Start menu, select Start/Programs/WinDrive/WinDrive GUI to launch the application.
B.2.3 Launcher
The Launcher dialog box is displayed after starting WinDrive. It displays the available configurations available for
the particular release of WinDrive. Note that depending on what Moog product WinDrive was shipped with, the list
of available configurations may differ. When the Launcher dialog is displayed, select the required configuration.
To determine which version is required look at the model number label on the drive:
Select appropriate application.
