More flexibility with SD cards
Many of Trio's Motion Coordinators allow use of SD or Micro SD flash memory cards. This increases the memory available to the program enabling storage of programs, recipe information or simply transfer of data to/from other locations. Trio's SD CARD support provides the hardware interface to the devices, and software support using the FAT32 file system. To learn how to boot up from SD Memory, transfer programs and store data from TrioBASIC read on.

Fix your programs and save time
You have debugged your programs, commissioned your machine, but to secure the programs inside your Motion Coordinator one final step is recommended. Fixing the program into EPROM ensures that the program is stored in flash memory and the controller copies the program into the RAM at start up. This reduces the risk of program loss if the battery fails and protects against program corruption. To learn how this is done click the link.

Understanding communication channels  This
technical note discusses in detail communications with Motion
Coordinators. Opening communications in Visual basic, how to use channel mode
to communicate over the command line to run programs or motion. We recommend using the Trio ActiveX controls for Motion Coordinators however the MC302X and MC302K are not supported by these controls. The technote and companion tools will work with all controllers and will allow PC based software to communicate and send motion instructions.

Modifying CAM profiles during motion  The ability to adjust a CAM based profile from within the Trio BASIC program adds more flexibility to Trio's Motion Coordinators.
Using the new TABLE_POINTER command it is possible to determine which TABLE memory location is currently being used by the CAM allowing the user to load new CAM data into previously processed TABLE location ready for the next CAM cycle. This is ideal for allowing a technician to finely tune a complex process, or changing recipes on the fly whilst running.

MCLoader tutorial
 MCLoader is an ActiveX
component that includes functions to check the controller and modify its memory
contents. You can perform many functions including loading projects, programs
and table data. This tutorial contains a documented example of a program written in Visual Basic, together with source code to allow you to fully understand the control and allow you to reuse parts within your own programs.
