Also on this page I will be adding an example of controlling a couple of RC Servos in the future..<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

The PTHAT is controlled by sending simple serial commands.<\/span><\/p>\u00a0<\/p>
- All commands are sent as Text (ASCII) format. This may mean sending more data in the communications, but it saves the end programmer having to do LongToByte calculations and keeps things simpler.
<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/ul>\u00a0<\/p>
- Each command has to be terminated with a *<\/strong><\/span> character and all letters\u00a0must be\u00a0in capitals. Replies from the PTHAT will also be returned with a *<\/span> character.<\/span><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/ul>
\u00a0<\/p>
- Also each command must have the full byte count. For example if you wanted to set a frequency of 1000Hz (1kHz), you can not just enter 1000 it must be formatted as 001000.00 in the Set Axis Command. Our software examples show the formatting.<\/span><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/ul>
\u00a0<\/p>
- After every command is sent, you will receive a Received command reply back and also a Completed command reply back. The Received command lets you know that the PTHAT has received the command okay and the Completed command reply lets you know if was executed ok. You can turn these replies off if needed, but be aware that it does not turn off all Completed command replies such as when an Axis finishes its pulse count.<\/span><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/ul>
\u00a0<\/p>
- All commands can be either sent as Instant commands that get executed straight away or a Buffered commands, where they get stored in the PTHAT memory and get executed one after the other. Using Buffered commands is useful if sending lots of small motor movements where the latency of the serial port communications could an issue. We will cover this more in the examples page.<\/span><\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/ul>
\u00a0<\/p>
- Multiple Set Axis Commands can be send before then sending a Start Command. This allows all four motors to be synchronised on start as well as keeping interpolation maintained if running a X'Y setup.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/ul>
\u00a0<\/p>
The communication settings should be:<\/span><\/p>BaudRate = 115200<\/span>
Parity = None<\/span>
StopBits = One<\/span>
DataBits = 8<\/span>
Handshake = None<\/span><\/p>Below we will show each command and break it down to show what each byte of the command does.<\/span><\/p>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
