AX3500 Motor Controller User’s Manual 21
Default Controller Configuration
Default Controller Configuration
Version 1.9b of the AX3500 software is configured with the factory defaults shown in the
table below. Although Roboteq strives to keep the same parameters and values from one
version to the next, changes may occur from one revision to the next. Make sure that you
have the matching manual and software versions. These may be retrieved from the
Roboteq web site. See “Configuring the Controller using the Switches” on page 175 of the
User Manual for a complete configuration parameter list and their possible values.
Any one of the parameters listed in Table 2, and others not listed, can easily be changed
either using the controller’s buttons or the PC with the Roboteq Configuration Utility. See
“Using the Roborun Configuration Utility” on page 181.
The example below shows how to use the buttons to select and change the Motor Control
mode from “separate” to “mixed”. See “Configuring the Controller using the Switches” on
page 175 of the User’s Manual for a complete list of all the AX3500’s parameters and their
meanings.
