[quote='brad' pid='139' dateline='1239222318'] Everything looks correct. The frequency will change even without a save and reset. Two possibilities are that maybe a different card than Gate1[4] is the master. Do you have an ACC5E in the rack or any other servo IC cards? [/quote] Yes, there is a Acc5E. How do I find it's address? Also, thanks on the FTU issue. I was not aware of that.

I want to raise the servo and phase clock from their default values to 20KHz. I set Gate1[4].PwmPeriod=2947, Gate1[4].ServoClockDiv=0, Gate1[4].PhaseServoDir=0, and Sys.ServoPeriod=0.0499894884, do a save and reset yet the TaskManager window/Tasks tab still shows the default values. What am I missing? The next step will be to change the Fundamental Time Unit from 1 mSec to 0.1 mSec which I assume can be done by setting Sys.ServoPeriod = Sys.ServoPeriod/10

In Global Definitions.pmh I have a user variable defined as: [code]Ptr OutputWord1->u.user:$4.0.32; // Front Panel 1 Output[/code] My plcs use these fine and share them, but I don't understand how to add them to the watch window. Adding local variables is easy with the PLC.n. structure, but globals give me a syntax error. Thx.

[quote='brad' pid='129' dateline='1238714752'] Your m-var definition is correct. I even copied it to my system and loaded it. Did you get this error when downloading or just as a red underline in the editor? If just in the editor try to download as the old IDE you have had many more language service problems than mine. The language service is what checks sysntax while you edit in the editor. [/quote] It is only the red underline, however no subsequent errors will be flaged until this one is "corrected".

My Visual studio development enviornment has some additional tools, notably the National Instruments Measurement Studio. In the Filter box under the Index I have the option of filtering just for my Measurment Studio content, but no corresponding filter to filter for only Delta Tau content. Is this an oversight or is there some way to turn this option on. I am specifically looking for the syntax on the ptr command because ptr IoCard0Pt00->u.io:$A00000.8.1 is giving an error for an unexpected $ Thanks,
