5.2 Test Manual Movement

Before attaching your scenery, confirm that your machine(s) is running in the correct direction and that your encoder is tracking position in the correct direction.

Many of us here at CCI will do all of this initial manual movement testing by jogging from the Stagehand face, often before connecting the Stagehand to Spikemark. For ease of use, this tutorial will utilize your Network Jogging skills from the previous section. Remember to do this with EACH machine.

Moving in the Forward direction must count Up

Moving in the Reverse direction must count Down
