Simulation mode or normal operation

No hardware is required for the simulation mode of the driver.

For normal operation, a physical APM4xx0 XPlanar Mover must be assigned to each XPlanar Mover.

A task must be assigned to each XPlanar Mover in order to be able to perform active calculations.

Depending on the configuration and task, up to two movers can be assigned to one CPU core, which calculates the current position and the set position.

The XPlanar Movers have an interface to external position setpoints. Movement commands are sent to the XPlanar Movers via the interface.
