Check Lost Step: the Dobot Magician detects if lost-steps occur in its movements. The default
threshold is 5 degrees. It should be at least 0.5 degrees. You can set the threshold by selecting
Setting > Playback > LostStepParam.
If Check Lost Step is selected, the robotic arm detects if the stepper motors lose steps when
moving. If unselected, no detection is performed
If the Dobot Magician detects lost-steps, it stops working, and its LED indicator turns red. In this
case, click Home to get a correct reference position

Multiplexed I/O interface: control the Dobot Magician via the I/O interfaces such as turning on or
off the air pump
ARC Motion Mode
Application Scenarios
The ARC motion mode requires three points in an arc to complete the arc movement process.
In the ARC motion mode, only the second point and end point are saved while the start point is
determined by the other modes.
