In some cases customers may not be able to connect to Power PMAC ARM through the USB-Serial UART Diagnostic Port over a Micro-USB cable. In this case, after pressing the button to put the port into serial mode, the CPU appears in the device manager as "FX230X Basic UART" instead of receiving a COM port. To fix this issue, install the appropriate version of this driver. (Windows 32 or 64 bit) https://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm

As of late 2020, the locations for the firmware and IDE have moved. Previous versions of both are still being kept on the Delta Tau website, available through the for firmware (forums account required) and the Software Center Updates page for software. However, the distribution methods for each have changed for future versions.http://forums.deltatau.com/filedepot/ [FILE REMOVED] Future versions of the IDE are available instead from the Omron Industrial Automation website: https://automation.omron.com/en/us/products/family/PMAC%20IDE Future versions of firmware can typically be distributed directly to customers through Omron Distributors rather than being available …

Hi! Running Beckhoff-dirve EL7211-0010 in CSV-Mode, I need to tune the drives PI-gains before closing position loop on PPMAC. After activating ECAT I tried writing to the drives velocity P-gain with follwoing command: p1=ecattypedsdo(0,0,1,$8010,15,0,4) where 0..master 0 0..slave 0 1..read $8010..index for dirve amplifier settings 15.. subindex for velocity proportional gain 0..read/write-value 4..# bytes p1=nan Any idea? For now I use the init-table to set those values - but it's quite laborious, since this approach needs many steps (deactivating ECAT, set value inside init-table, loading mapping to PPMAC, issue ecatreset, activating ECAT, agitate mot…

For many years now we have been operating our 460 UMAC with Phase/Servo/RTI at 16/8/4 KHz with near flawless operation. Admittedly, on some certain complex part programs the 460 will throw an insufficient calculation time error. Since implementing the Quad core, the same settings have worked well and have eliminated all instances of insufficient calculation time errors. However in trying to increase performance I have increased the clocks to 32/16/8, but I now get a burst of errors on startup. These can be cleared and the system almost works, however opening the IDE (4.5.2.9) the machine crashes hard with Phase/Servo/RTI errors. Looking at task manager does not show any u…

Integrator on project with Linear motor (Power Brick). Uses Servo.Kbreak > 0 to get good settling in position and a filter. Works well, BUT after 4 seconds the motor "BARKS!" once... then ok. If does not use Kbreak then no Bark but settling not as good. Suspects that the Servo.OutDb... is causing some integral windup to the point of the BARK. Ideas, suggestions appreciated. Attached is pdf with more details and motor setup parameters. BarkingMotor.pdf

We have a machine that uses UMAC to control, but recently when the CPU is abnormal and needs to be replaced, But was told by the software that the Firmware version does not match. We don't want to change Firmware to cause unpredictable bugs. provide an older Firmware version (1.5.8.0) of the installer?

Hi, We are setting up a brushless motor (LM). We have not been able to set it up both through the wizard and manual setup mode. Our hardware is ACC24E3 with ACI and 465 (Dual core APM) CPU. We need some procedure/manual to guide us through as we couldn't succeed in setting up the axis. Attached are some screenshots of the error during the open loop and initial tuning. The velocity plot shows few spikes which corresponds to some positional jerk motion. We are using a 0.512 micron pitch encoder. This eventually leads to I2T fault on the PMAC amplifier end. Looking forward for some suggestions with regards to 1) Ideal Phase, Servo and Enc clock settings 2…

I would like to know the differnece between the additon and subtraction of two encoders input (space at 180 dgreee). In this case, the final Motor[].Enctype should be chosen as type 7 (as two of the actual encoders are Type 7 and we use ACI) or Type 1? Also how do I use another low resolution encoder as the feedback for Velocity control (Dual feedback). So in total I have 3 encoders for a single axis. Any procedure or manual would be helpful. Regards.

We are using Kollmorgen drive and configured PDO 6077 (Actual torque). This PDO is 16 bit integer. This data is signed integer data in the drive. However in the controller we are getting this as 16 bit unsigned integer. Can anyone tell me how to map this data in Ethercat so that I get directly signed integer?

Wondering if anyone else has had this issue before. The x-axis in our 5 axis cnc lags behind by about a millimeter when following the TCP. The motor position shows a 1mm following error which makes me think it knows where its supposed to be but isnt keeping up for some reason. We tried adjusting the tuning and proportional gain settings which slightly decreased the error but its still to big for the applications we need. tcp_lag.MOV

I have written a c program on pmac IDE which accesses the windows server to read desired inputs to a motor and update it on the shared memory. Does anyone know where should I place my c program to benefit from real-time interrupt property without any need to use a while loop? Should I place it under background C program folder or realtime CPLC (.rticplc) folder or in the real-time routines folder? Thanks.

I am using a motor output in step/direction mode and seeing pulses emitted even if DesVel is zero. All integrators are disabled, and I confirmed Servo.Integrator is zero the whole time. I am trying to get rid of the pulses with OutDbOn/Off/Seed and it's not behaving as I expect. I set OutDbOn to 0.5, OutDbOff to 4, and OutDbSeed to 1. But in the rightmost interval in FE.png, you see a pulse emitted long after DesVel became 0, and PosError never left the range of 0.5 and 4. Looking at Motor.Servo.Status it goes to 0 when DesVel goes to 0, even though PosError is 1.06 at this time, and then goes to 1 after the spurious pulse. Also looking at Motor.Servo.Statu…
