# fake

Configure a `fake` gantry to test implementing a gantry component on your machine without any physical hardware:

- [JSON Template](https://docs.viam.com/reference/components/gantry/fake/#configure-a-fake-gantry-0)

```json

```

No attributes are available for fake gantries.
See [GitHub](https://github.com/viamrobotics/rdk/blob/main/components/gantry/fake/gantry.go) for API call return specifications.

## Test the gantry

Once your gantry is configured and connected, open the gantry’s **TEST** panel on the **CONFIGURE** or [**CONTROL**](https://docs.viam.com/monitor/default-interface/#web-ui) tabs.

Use the panel to adjust the position of the actuator on the axis and check whether it moves as expected.

If the gantry does not appear on the **TEST** panel, or if you notice unexpected behavior, check your machine’s [**LOGS** tab](https://docs.viam.com/monitor/troubleshoot/#check-logs) for errors, and review the configuration.
