Hi Steve,
To send the Servo Output to the Kanalog DACs select DAC SERVO. (DC Servo is for a DC Motor connected to SnapAmp).
For Kanalog there is an
example starting configuration called: KanalogInitialPID.mot
Load that as a starting point using the Config Screen | Load Channel.
First get your axis configured and tuned using the KMotion Screens (Config, Step Response, Filters) before creating a C Program.
Test that your Amplifier is driving by using DAC commands on the Console (ie DAC0=200).
Test whether your Encoder is working by observing the Axis Screen
Then Enable the Servo.
HTH
Regards
TK

> When I go to the Configuration screen I am lost. under axis mode (Input) I selected encoder (Output) DO I SELECT DC SERVO or DAC SERVO? what is the difference? I have tried several different settings but cannot get it to work. I have tried Init3Analog.c when I down loaded it my X axis moved to the right till I disabled the drive. Is this a good file to start with? I am looking to at least be able to jog my axis Kmotion
