Hello,
I am using the SMIEngine to interact with my Smartmotors. I can get almost all of the functionality to work, except for the contour mode. I followed the example in the help, which is in C++, and does not use the SMIEngine, but rather a generic comm interface.
In the commands to load interpolation data to the motors, the 0xFA command, the C program example makes the first byte of the command string to be the motor address 0x80,0x81,etc. Since I am using the SMIEngine, I am omitting that byte because I assume when I command the motors individually, the address is implied. For example, to load a point value in the motor 1 in C, the command string would be something like 0x81/0xFA/0x25/0x20/0x00/0x00 and when I send the command through SMIEngine it would be Motor1.WriteCommand( WSTR which contains 0xFA/0x25/0x20/0x00/0x00 ). Is this correct?
I am not getting any response from the motor when I execute the Go command after loading the contour values. Any Ideas on how I can debug this? Do you have any RAD Studio/Delphi examples using the SMIEngine?
Thanks,
Scott
