AH Motion Controller – Operation Manual Before developing an AH Motion system, you need to install ISPSoft and COMMGR, which are basic software. ISPSoft is a platform for integrating the program development of a whole system, hardware configuration, and network configuration. COMMGR functions as middleware between a computer and devices. For example, it functions as a communication management interface between ISPSoft and AH Motion system hardware. 3.1 Installing and Uninstalling ISPSoft System Requirements _3 *Note: 1. ISPSoft supports several ways in which a computer is connected to a PLC.
You have to make sure of the port and the mode supported by a PLC before a computer is connected to the PLC. *2. Please refer to section 3.2 for more information about COMMGR. *3. In addition to ISPSoft, you must use PMSoft version 2.05 or above to develop AH10PM-5A and AH20MC-5A. *4. The functions and specifications mentioned above are only applicable to ISPSoft version 2.00 or above. The older versions are not equipped with the complete functions. 3-2 Item System requirements Operating system Windows 2000/NT/Me/XP/Vista/7/8/10 CPU Pentium 1.5 G or above Memory 256 MB or above (A memory having a capacity of 512 MB or above is recommended.)
