Configuring Lockstep
Zaber Multi-Axis Controllers such as the X-MCC series have a lockstep mode that causes two or more axes to move in sync. This video demonstrates how to use Zaber Launcher to configure lockstep movement.
Once lockstep mode is established, different commands must be used to control movement. Zaber Launcher handles this automatically, but if you are using the Zaber Motion Library you should use the Lockstep class, or in other software use the Zaber ASCII Protocol lockstep commands.
What You Will LearnThis video walks you through the three phases of lockstep usage: Creating a lockstep group, controlling the group's motion, and dissolving the group.
Creating and dissolving are typically done only once each, and the beginning and end of a task, where as controlling the motion of the group is the bulk of the usage.
