DGII actuator with AZ motor: Parameter Settings for Proper Z-home
Q: I am using a DG actuator with AZ motor and I cannot get it to Zhome properly. Currently the DG with AZ always homes in the shortest distance to home. This is not ideal for my application as I can damage the fixture. I would like to Zhome in the same direction the motor entered (so home in the opp...

Re: ASD16B-C Replacement
Hi Paul, When replacing the ASM98MC-P36 motor and ASD16B-C driver with the ARM98MC-PS36 motor and ARD-C driver, there will be a difference in the wiring. The 36 pin I/O cable will need to be re-wired as the pin assignments are not the same as before. In addition the C-ON input will need to be wired....
