N - Number of Steps
Format: N [value]
Description: This command sets the number of clocks for the controller to send out following a G
command.
Range: 0 - 8388607
G - Go Number of Steps
Format: G
Description: This command is used to send a set number of clocks out of the controller. An N
or P command must be entered before the G command.
S - Go Slew
Format : S
Description: This command will send clocks out to the controller. The only commands that can
stop the clocks are; . (stop motion) or LS (soft limit). Motion can also be stopped
by using the limit switch inputs. The ramp profile is specified by the B (base
speed), M (max speed), and A (acceleration/deceleration) commands. J -  Jog  Speed
Format: J [value]
Description: This command sets the jog speed. This value must be greater than the base speed.
Range: 77 - 15000 
						

							32 #L010119May 2002
H - Home
Format: H [binary]
Description: This command sends clocks out of the controller until the home limit or the soft limit
is active. There are two types of homing available.
Home Types: H0: In type 0 homing, the controller will send clocks until a soft limit is reached,
then ramp down to base speed. Clocks will continue until a home or hard
limit is reached.
H1: In type 1 homing, the unit will move until a home limit is reached, then
change directions, ramp down to base speed and stop upon release of the
home limit input.
. - Stop Motion
Format: .
Description: This command will stop all motion. It can also be used to stop the current program
that is running.
+ -  Clockwise
Format: +
Description: This command sets the direction output to clockwise.
- - Counter-Clockwise
Format: -
Description: This command sets the direction output to counterclockwise.
V - Verify
Format: V [command]
Description: This command can be used with most commands to verify the register contents.
This is a read only command. Valid Commands are: A, B, F, J, M, N, 0, and +.

I - Read Inputs
Format: I
Description: This command returns the binary value of the inputs to the PC. Since the inputs
are pulled up internally, they will return a high when they are pulled low. For
example, if all inputs are active (grounded), the command will return a 15. If all
inputs are inactive (open), the command will return a 0. Input 1 is the LSB, input
2 is the second bit, input 3 is the third bit, and input 4 is the MSB. O - Set Outputs
Format: O [value]
Description: This command sets the outputs according to the binary value. Output 1 is the
LSB and output 2 is the MSB.
Range: 0 - 3
L0 - Get Limit Status
Format: L0
Description: This command returns the binary value of the hard and soft in a binary format.
The soft limit is the LSB and the hard limit is the MSB.
LS - Soft Limit Input Bit
Format: LS
Description: This command will ramp the clocks down to base speed. The move type then de-
termines what will happen. In a relative or absolute type motion the controller will
continue to the set position and stop. In a slew type motion the controller will ramp
down and stop.

Problem:
The Controller has a fault condition.
Possible Solutions:
1) Verify your program for improper syntax that may cause an error code.
2) Physically press the reset button on the controller to clear an error.
3) Another way to clear an error is by using either the SMC50WIN software or the direct mode
    command instructions set.
4) The SMC50WIN can clear an error in the motion tab section by clicking on the verify param-
    eters button.
5) The direct mode commands can clear an error by simply prompting the error codes register.
Example: @0!  (carriage return)
Description: Select the unit address by typing @ followed by the address number and ! (Error
        Codes Register) and a carriage return.
Note: Read the Error returned to the screen to better understand what can be causing the fault
          condition. The error is returned in binary coded decimal format. If two errors were
          received their binary values would be added together.
