Diagnostics and Troubleshooting
User Level - The User Level setting is a filter for the parameters that are seen in the Select
Drive Parameters list. If set to Easy, the parameters used in most basic applications will be
seen while the more advanced parameters are hidden. If set to Detailed, the parameters used
in more advanced applications will be added to the list. If set to Too Much, then all
parameters available in the system will be seen in the list. This allows the user to select the
User Level they are most comfortable with to avoid confusion. If a parameter has been
selected and the User Level is changed, then the selected parameter will remain selected.
Group - The Group setting allows the user to filter the parameters that are displayed in the
Select Drive Parameters window by group. The Group defaults to “ALL” so that parameters
from all groups are seen. If the user wishes to only see those parameters from a specific
group, the click on the Group list box and select the group of parameters they wish to see.
Global Where Am I Button
The Program View, when online and executing a program or sequence of programs, can
display current program status. Pressing the Where Am I button on the PowerTools Pro
toolbar creates a blue triangle that appears on the line of the program currently being
executed.
The Global Where Am I can be used for diagnostics. When the user needs to know where in
a complicated program the drive is or when the user wishes to follow the logical flow of the
program.
Motion Status
While the drive is online, the name of the program currently running or the motion type
currently running will appear in the status bar at the bottom left corner of the PowerTools Pro
screen.
