KINESIS V1.4.0 Release Notes (23/02/2016)

 

Bug Fixes:

----------

Fixed issue with KCube Brushless Motor stopping in sequencer due to move tolerances causing limits to hit prematurely

Fixed issue with Rotational motors overflowing the position by integrating the position into a 64 bit position.

Fixed issue with MNA601 C API returning Invalid Handle

 

Updates:

--------

Added settings option to Motors to define how the devices act at or around the limit switches:

Disallow moves outside of the Working Limits (default) - Will not allow any move that results in a position outside of the operating limits

Truncate moves outside of the working kimits - Will truncate moves that would result in a position outside the operating limits

Allow all moves - No software range checking, relies purely on the device to limit travel.

 

Misc:

-----
