Initial Startup Using Motion Control Module
Before DCS120 can be used with a Motion Control Module you must connect the appropriate hardware. Refer to pages
17-19 for hardware connection information.
Once you have connected the hardware, you must configure DCS120 to match it. Insert the DCS120 disk in drive A
and type a:install <Enter> (you can substitute drive B for A). Select the directory where you want to install DCS120.
You may need to select a different COMM port. Please see explanations of the various configuration files later in this
appendix. When you finish the installation, change to the DCS120 directory (default: c:\DCS120) and type MMCDOS
<Enter> to start the program.
