To check if the MPM-2000 has reached the given position you can poll the actual position (POS[CR]) and
compare it with desired position.
Note: A difference of +/-1 between the desired position and the real position can occur. This is not a
functional error.
Calibrating the MPM-2000
To calibrate the MPM-2000 Optical Multiplexer, you must write the complete program file to the
EEPROM in the MPM-2000. This means that every line included in the original file must again be
written to and stored in the EEPROM.
Caution
Do NOT change anything other than the numbers representing the channel
positions! Any other change can lead to a system malfunction.
Commands to Save a File to the EEPROM
Command Description Example
PROGSEQ Defines the beginning of a Sequence program. All commands
given after PROGSEQ will be sent directly to the EEPROM until
the END command
( Caution: Do NOT cut the supply power to the motor during
programming).
PROGSEQ[CR]
END Defines the end of the program. All commands given after the END
will be immediately carried out by the motor.
END[CR]
GPROGSEQ Gets program sequence
This function returns the complete program stored in the EEPROM
GPROGSEQ[CR]
ENPROG Starts the program
This Program command can also be saved with the EEPSAV
command. The program will then run directly after turning on the
power to the motor.
ENPROG[CR]
DIPROG Deactivates the program DIPROG[CR]
LR Loads relative position
Loads new relative position
LA1000[CR]
M[CR]
