Chapter 7 Creating Custom Motors

The following command applies to the Rotary Motor window.

Importing Motors

The Import menu can be used to read two types of motor data:

A motor exchange file (.mxf ) previously written by the motor
configuration tool using the Export function.

An Ultra Master motor file (.mtr). This allows a custom motor file created
for Ultra Master to be added to the Ultraware motor database.

Select the type of file you want to import from the Open Import dialog box by:

1. Selecting the file to import from the “Files of type:” drop down list, and
2. Click Open to add the motor to the database.

Exporting Motors

The Export Menu copies the selected motor to a motor exchange file (.mxf ). The
motor exchange file is a binary format that transfers between different personal
computers, but Ultraware software must be installed on both personal computers.

Parameter Description

TIP

The data contained in a .mtr file does not include all the
properties for a motor stored in the motor database. You should
examine the motor properties after importing an Ultra Master
motor file to verify the information.
