Arun_Mali-

Are you using any of our internal amplifiers? Is there a particular reason you would like the servos to run with step and direction instead of analog torque control?

If you're using an external drive that takes in a step and direction signal then MT must be set to 2,-2, 2.5, or -2.5 depending on the direction the applications calls 'positive' and if the amp is active high or active low step and direction inputs. When you change the motor type and command motion, is the reference position, RP, moving or is it staying still? If RP is moving there should be steps coming out the step output.

Hi, I have a Gerber fabric cutter and unexpectedly the servomotors move erratically and without control, I do not have the software to adjust the servos, can you tell me which one is ???
