Linking a Motor to a NOVAQ (SAM4 Setup Tool)

Step-by-step guide to link a motor in the SAM4 Setup Tool.

Updated over a week ago

In the SAM4 setup tool you can assign a NOVAQ to a motor.

Notice It is extremely important that the NOVAQ is linked to the correct motor ID.

If you link an incorrect NOVAQ to the motor ID, the information of another NOVAQ will be shown in the system as the information for this motor ID.

Follow the next steps to assign a NOVAQ to a motor:

  1. Navigate to the “DAQs” page in the top bar and click on the serial number of device you want to link.

  2. Press the “Link motor” button in the motor information card. This page will take a few seconds to load.

  3. Select the location of the motor. A list of motor information is shown, please make sure this NOVAQ is indeed installed on the exact motor shown on screen

  4. Press “Link motor”

  5. To assign a different motor to its corresponding NOVAQ unit on the same network, log out of the SAM4 Setup Tool on the current device by going to the Account tab and selecting Log out.

  6. Log in to the SAM4 setup tool on a different NOVAQ.

Notice All NOVAQ units on the same network can be accessed and configured by connecting your laptop to the last device in the daisy chain.
