Kickdrive User Manual

Read

Read the selected values from the device (CANopen Upload). If nothing is selected in the Object Editor table, all values are read.

Edit

Use this function or double click on an element in the Value / Editor column. The values are not written to the device immediately, unless Synch Mode is used.

Write

Write the selected values to the device (CANopen Download). If nothing is selected in the Object Editor table, all writable values are downloaded.

Store

Store the written parameters permanently. I.e. the CANopen device will continue to use these values after a voltage reset. This function is used after writing modified values using the Write function.

Reset

Reset all device parameters to the factory settings.

Synch Mode

Read read-only parameters periodically. Writable parameters are read once. After that, every modification entered by the user will be downloaded to the device immediately.

Default

Copy the value from the dictionary's Default column to the Value column, for the selected rows. If no rows are selected, all objects will be updated to the default values. To write these defaults into the device, use Write.

Export

Export the selected Object Editor rows to XDC (based on the current XDD Object Dictionary loaded), Concise DCF (.cdcf file) and two text formats (.csv and .txt files).

When operating at User Level 2, you can use the Scaling column to define how values should be scaled before showing them in the Value column.

The the same formats as used in Scaling for the Scope are supported.
