b'# Schneider Electric MDrive device server\r\n\r\nThis a Tango device server written in PyTango for a Schneider Electric MDrive stepper motor controller using the RS485 serial interface.\r\nIt consits of a SchneiderMDriveCtrl device server that handles the communication with the RS485 bus and one to many SchneiderMDriveCtrlAxis device servers implementing the actual interface to the stepper axis.\r\n\r\n## Party Mode\r\n\r\nConfiguring the MDriveWith a communication converter and the MDrive units planned to be used in Party Mode at hand, \r\nperform the following:\r\n\r\n Connect in single mode RS-422 and initiate communication, download any programs if required.\r\n Assign a device name (DN=\xe2\x80\x9d<A-Z, a-z or 0-9>\xe2\x80\x9d) i.e., DN=\xe2\x80\x9dA\xe2\x80\x9d.\r\n Set the party flag to 1 (PY=1)\r\n Press CTRL+J to activate party mode\r\n Type in [Device Name]S and press CTRL+J (saves the DN and party configuration) ie AS CTRL+J\r\n Remove power and label the drive with the assigned DN.\r\n Repeat for each system MDrive.\r\n\r\nYou should also set the EM (Echo Mode) to 1:\r\n\r\n> Don\xe2\x80\x99t echo the information, only send back prompt. CR/LF indicates command accepted (half duplex).\r\n\r\nYou should also set the ES (Escape Mode) to 3:\r\n\r\n> Escape Flag set to respond to addressable ESC keypress (party mode)\r\n\r\n## Authors\r\n\r\n Daniel Schick\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n'
