1. Open the “Motion” Tab
2. Set the “Counts per Unit” so that you are working in whatever units you prefer. (See Calculate Counts per Unit)
Note
If you have a free spinning motor, It is easy to set User Units so you are working in Revs.
3. Open RapidSetup.
4. Set your Motion Parameters for a move that makes sense for your system.
Example
Velocity →10 rev/s
Acceleration →100 rev/s2
Deceleration → 100 rev/s2
Position 1 → 0 revolutions
Position 2 →10 revolutions
5. Select which type of motion you’d like to command by selecting either Absolute, Relative, or Velocity under the motion profile section.
6. Clear the Faults and Enable the Axis.
Assuming the motor is tuned by the drive and your Axis has been enabled, you can start commanding motion. Use these three arrows to move the motor back and forth.
