This video explains how the Captive Linear Actuator motor operates. An internal nut spins a threaded portion of the shaft. This is one feature that contributes to make the shaft come in and out of the motor. The other feature is the two notches that you see on both sides the shaft. These two notches "captures" the shaft and does not allow the shaft to rotate. Without the notch, it will cause the shaft to rotate in place.

This video demonstrates the configuration of PCL501 controllers to control a 4 axis system. This will cover the setup, the connection and instruction set. Our goal will be to slew all four axis simultaneously.

Do you need an HMI for your application, but don't know where to start? In this video we will discuss the steps for choosing the ideal HMI for your project.

This video demonstrates how to create a Timer and use a macro in a program to display time on an HMI. This tutorial will walk you through the steps of creating a timer, macro, number display and displaying the frame. This example will show you the basics of handling a timer control.

This video demonstrates Servo Motor Analog Speed control through an HMI and PLC. We cover all of the necessary parameters that need to be set in the PLC and create a GUI in the HMI to access the necessary registers in the PLC.

This video demonstrates how to create a program on an HMI which will send ASCII commands to a controller. This tutorial will walk you through the steps of formatting your text, storing your text and how to send your text from the HMI to the controller. With this simple tutorial you can easily export the ASCII commands specific to your controller.

An overview of basic components in the HMIWare editing software, such as bit state lamp, bit state setting and bit state switch.
