The BLuAC5-Si is normally used to store and execute Si motion control programs. However,
it can instead be used as a -S or -Q model to provide the following control modes:
• ±10V analog torque, velocity or position control
• RS-232 or RS-485 serial command (SCL) mode for digital control of torque, velocity or
position
• Q Language, which provides powerful and versatile programming control of all drive func-
tions plus host interactivity. The Q Language requires previous programming experience and
is more difficult to learn than Si.
The Si Programmer™ software is used to develop, test and store Si programs. It also pro-
vides all necessary servo set up and tuning features.
If you want to set up and tune your BLUAC5-Si for torque, velocity, SCL or Q modes, use the
Quick Tuner software. You’ll also need Q Programmer to develop Q language programs. All
of the software applications and manuals are included on a CD with each drive and are also
available on our web site,
