2 74 Advanced Digital Motor Controller User Manual V1.8, August 28, 2017
Description:
Firmware update can be performed via the RS232 port or via USB. When done via USB,
the DFU command is used to cause the controller to enter in the firmware upgrade mode.
This command must be used with care and must be followed by a 9-digit safety key to
prevent accidental use. Once the controller has received the DFU command, it will no
longer respond to the PC utility and no longer be visible on the PC. When this mode is en-
tered, you must launch the separate upgrade utility to start the firmware upgrade process.
Syntax:
%DFU safetykey
Where:
safetykey = 321654987
EELD - Load Parameters from EEPROM
Argument: None
Description:
This command reloads the configuration that are saved in EEPROM back into RAM and
activates these settings.
Syntax:
%EELD
EERST - Reset Factory Defaults
Argument: Key
Description:
The EERST command will reload the controller’s™ RAM and EEPROM with the
factory default configuration. Beware that this command may cause the controller
to no longer work in your application since all your configurations will be erased
back to factory defaults. This command must be used with care and must be followed
by a 9-digit safety key to prevent accidental use.
Syntax:
%EERST safetykey
Where:
safetykey = 321654987
EESAV - Save Configuration in EEPROM
Argument: None
Description:
Controller configuration that have been changed using any Configuration Command
can then be saved in EEPROM. Once in EEPROM, it will be loaded automatically in the
controller every time the unit is powered on. If the EESAV command is not called after
changing a configuration, the configuration will remain in RAM and active only until the
controller is turned off. When powered on again, the previous configuration that was in
the EEPROM is loaded. This command uses no parameters
Syntax:
%EESAV
