Using RMCTools

RMCTools Overview

RMCTools is a Windows-based software package for the RMC75, RMC150 and RMC200 motion controllers.

RMCTools allows the user to set up, display, troubleshoot, program and control all features of the RMC motion controller. Fully detailed plots of motion can be captured at any time. RMCTools offers high speed communications to the RMC via a serial USB, Ethernet, or RS-232, allowing the user to tune even the most time-critical applications.

RMCTools is an Integrated Development Environment. All the editors and tools are part of the environment and the data is saved as part of the project. Some items, such as plots and Event Log captures, must be saved separately.

Operating Systems

This version of RMCTools requires Windows 11 or /10 operating systems (64-bit only). Windows 10 requires version 1903 (May 2019) or newer. Previous RMCTools versions for older Windows versions are available from Delta's website.

RMCTools has been run on Linux under Wine, but is not officially supported.
