Online RMC150
Connecting to a Live RMC150 with RMCTools
Connect using a Sample Project
Use RMCTools to connect to a live RMC150. This method uses a sample project that is already set up with proper internal simulator and tuning values for each axis and has a few user programs. It will connect to rmc150.deltamotion.com.
- Download and install RMCTools.
- Download and unzip this RMC150 sample project: online_rmc150.zip. Unzip the file to an easy-to-remember location, such as the Desktop.
- Open RMCTools.
- In the Startup dialog, choose Browse for an Existing Project and click Browse.
- Browse to the Delta Online RMC150.rmcproj that you just unzipped and click Open, then OK.
- In the Project pane, right-click the RMC150 and choose Go Online. If any Conflict dialogs appear, click Download if it is available, otherwise, click Upload. If prompted, choose Save all Settings to Flash.
