	all X/Y motors to ensure good commutation after index detected.

3.1	110913 PFlex400x_Prod_x03
	Zeroed 10683/10684 "Current offset of phase...".  For some

	quickly.  Implemented PID torque limits (10351,10352).  Reduced
	jt4 Integral gain (10332) from 0.2 to 0.1 to reduce twitching

	Reduced 10332 Ki for joint 4 from 0.4 to 0.2 to eliminate
	continuous oscillation during nulling when Agilent teach plate

	hunting.  Changed 16070 DFF rated torque for motor 1 from
	110 to 125 to provide slight downward bias to reduce 
	friction when manually positioning Z axis.

3.1	110309 PP2***
	For Precise pseudo absolute encoders, set the "Number of
	consecutive indices to find during homing" (10241) to 2 instead

3.0	091010 PP2400A_Pilot
	For the Theta axis, BRC instructed that the PAC files should
	be changed as follows:  Kp reduced from 33 to 25 and
	Kd reduced from 580 to 400.  Theta zero index checking turned
	off in 10200.  Theta encoder filter disabled in 10220 to
	avoid possible FPGA bug.

3.0	091010 PP2300A, PP2400A_Pilot, UP2300A
	To compensate for motor 1 200V windings and to improve performance
	in general, "Velocity error SPR filter" (10326) and "Motor velocity

	Reduced Ki (10332) from 6 to 5 and integrator rate limit (10335) from
	150 to 120 for joint 1. Two PP2400 robots at Innovative Drive have

	Increased Kp (10331) from 31 to 33, Ki (10332) from 0.2 to 0.6 and
	Kd (10333) from 550 to 580 for joint 4 of PP2400. Two PP2400 robots

	(away from the X carriage) and jogging X axis at low speed.
	Increased Kp (10331) from 31 to 33, Ki (10332) from 0.2 to 0.6 and
	Kd (10333) from 550 to 580 for joint 4 of PP2400. Two PP2400 robots
	at Innovative Drive exhibited excessive error at J4 roller bumps.
	Inceasing these gains reduced the position error (at low speed) from
	20+ counts to 10-13 counts at the bumps.

2.1 081114  PFlex1400  robot01.pac
	Reduced Kd (10333) from 8 to 4 for joint 4 at Victor's

2.1 080818  All controller.pac
	Changed 781 "CPU Monitor interval in sec" to 5
	Changed 782 "CPU Monitor log max entries" to 0

	diomotion01.pac, gpl_vars.pac, robot01.pac

	Created set of PAC files for Pilot set of robots.  These are
	the units after the 10 beta units.  In general, these robots
	have the new X-axis cross section and plastic end caps or are
	the beta units that have been reworked.

2.0 071212  PP1400 robot01.pac

	Increase binary search commutation effort to 45% for
	theta axis after a failure at J&J.

2.0 071001  PP1210/PP1300/PP1400 robot01.pac

	Changed "Search ref operation effort" for X and Y axes
	to 50 from 35 as requested by Brian C.

2.0 070918  All controller.pac

	Changed "Delay after setting brakes in sec" to 0.5 from 1
	second, so that it is shorter than the "E-Stop delay in sec".
	This is to allow GPL to turn off the amplifiers before the
	E-Stop circuit times out and causes amplifier error messages.

2.0 070803  Analytical_Chem/PP1300/PP1400/PP1210/PP121A robot01.pac

	Reset X-axis & Y-axis proportional gains from 60 and 50 back to
	40, and derivative gains from 1300 and 1200 to 1200.  Increased
	acceleration feedforward from 0 to 10000 of X, Y, and Z.   This
	was done at Brian's request to improve performance.

2.0 070702  Analytical_Chem/PP1300/PP1400/PP1210/PP121A robot01.pac

	Increased X-axis & Y-axis proportional gains from 37.98 to
	60 and 50, and derivative gains from 700 to 1300 and
	1200 respectively.  This was done at Brian's request to
	eliminate wiggling at speed 20.

===========================  Versions 1.4 =======================

1.4 070510  Analytical_Chem/PP1210/PP121A/PP1300/PP1400 robot01.pac

	Disabled index checking for dual loop encoders that now
	have their encoder counts/revolution (10203) set.

1.4 070418  Analytical_Chem/PP1210/PP121A/PP1300/PP1400 robot01.pac

	Added Jt 1/2 motor encoder factors to DataID 10203.  Added
	for compatibility with configuration utility, should not
	affect functional operation of robot.	

1.4 070413  PP1210/PP1300/PP1400 robot01.pac

	Change all the non-gravity loaded axes to use new reference
	finding method (set 10700 to 5). Changed 10761 to 0.2 from
	default value to increase the search speed. Changed 10763 to
	indicate gravity loaded axis although it is not configured
	to use the new reference finding method. Changed 10778 to
	35 from the default value as more effort is needed for the
	PP robot.

1.4 070402  Analytical_Chem/PP1210/PP121A/PP1300/PP1400 robot01.pac

	Increased X and Y axis "Derivative gain, Kd" (DataID 10333)
	from 506.4 to 700.  This was recommended by Victor since it
	eliminated wobbly diagonal motions in X and Y.  This was
	discovered during dispensing testing and is especially
	noticable with heavier payloads.

1.4 070131  Analytical_Chem/PP1210/PP1300/PP1400 robot01.pac

    	Increased Z axis "Duty cycle exceeded duration" (DataID 10622)
	from 4 seconds to 6 seconds to avoid errors due to increasing
	the "Hardstop envelope limit" (DataID 10122) (see below).

1.4 070126  Analytical_Chem/PP1210/PP1300/PP1400 robot01.pac

	Protedyne experienced intermittent bad homing results on the Z axis.
	They had a problem with binding in the Z-axis cable rack.  In
	addition, the hard stop detection limit is probably too low given
	normal position errors with maximum load.  For the Z-axis, increased
	the "Hardstop envelope limit" (DataID 10122) from 200 to 300.


===========================  Versions 1.3 and earlier =======================

1.3 061228  Analytical_Chem/PP1210/PP1300/PP1400 robot01.pac

	On GPD #1 and Telesis #3, at Chad, Brian experienced nulling
	time out errors on the Z-axis when InRange set to 100, using
	GPL 1.3 with a 3kg payload.  We believe that we were not getting
	errors with previous GPL versions since there was a bug in
	the in-range testing.  Changed "Proportional gain, Kp" (DataID
	10331) from 37.98 to 50.  Changed "Integrator limit" (DataID
	10334) from 3000 to 7000.

1.3 061020

	Corrected index detection pattern for Teco motor for all PP robots.
	Wasn't detected because index error reporting is turned off for this
	motor.

1.3 060921 calib01.pac

	Changed negative hardstops for XYZ of the PP1300 and PP1400 robots to
	-2 instead of -5 per Brian.

1.3 060920

	Modified tuning constants and duty cycle value for Jt3 of the PP1400
	per Victor.

	Removed obsolete dataid 2011.  Axis mapping now automatic.

1.3 060718 controller.pac

    	Removed DataID 423, Web index from all controller PAC files.  This
    	value is no longer saved and defaults to 1 on boot.

1.3 060715

	Changed PP1400 Theta motor commutation sign back to +1 per Victor.

1.3 060713
