Ampsid
Function:
Report Serial Electronic Identification Number
Scope:
Global
Syntax:
AMPSID
Caution
The AMPSID command will kill all enabled motors, which can be
hazardous in some systems (i.e. enabled vertical axis without an
automatic software or hardware braking mechanism)
hazardous in some systems (i.e. enabled vertical axis without an
automatic software or hardware braking mechanism)
This command causes the Geo Brick Drive to report the electronic identification number of the amplifier
module. The information reported in the identification number is a 16-digit ASCII string dedicated for
internal use, and technical support troubleshooting.
Example:
Ampclrf
Function:
Amplifier Clear Fault(s)
Scope:
Global
Syntax:
AMPCLRF
Caution
The AMPCLRF command will enable then kill all the motors to clear
faults. If AMPCLRF is issued with no existing errors, all previously
enabled motors will be killed, which can be hazardous in some
systems (i.e. enabled vertical axis without an automatic software or
hardware braking mechanism)

enabled motors will be killed, which can be hazardous in some
systems (i.e. enabled vertical axis without an automatic software or
hardware braking mechanism)
This command will clear amplifier faults in the Geo Brick Drive. The AMPCLRF is typically used to clear
global faults (scrolling fault display starting with an A) rather than axis individual faults (scrolling fault
display starting with an n, where n =1-8 for axis number). Remember, individual axis fault(s) in the Geo
Brick Drive can be cleared by enabling the axis, most simply done by issuing a zero percent open loop
command (#nO0) output then killing (#nK) the motor right after if necessary.
