Project Templates

KAS provides start up templates to help you get started.

See Add the Controller to use the project setup wizard.

These are the templates for the Pipe Network and PLCopen motion engines:

Template Inclusions

These templates come complete with software to:

  • Create two or three axes of servo motion
  • Enable the drives
  • Perform simple motion

The templates contain variables which support these operations.

Additionally, the templates contain a Control Panel for ease of running motion.


  • The templates may need to be changed to run on specific hardware.
