The manual for the 14E board hardly mentions how to use it in the Power PMAC system. Is there a manual or reference material available specifically for using this card in the Power system?

I am working on converting my Turbo PMAC software to Power PMAC and have made some good progress. My application program starts, initialized the 3-stage system (Cartesian x, y z) and makes abs-linear moves, abs-rapid moves and velocity jog oves just fine. Homing is also under control. My problem is that as soon as I take a 1 minute break before asking for the next move, the controller does not respond any longer - actually, no command goes through to the controller. I have a Power PMAC Clipper 465. My control program sits on a Windows 10 laptop. I use the libssh2 implementation from Observatory Sciences to let my control program talk to the PMAC. OF the man…

I was wondering if any users have successfully tunnelled TCP traffic over PPmac Acontis master? We would like to use drive mfg's commissioning tools that already support this connectivity. Beckhoff makes the claim that this "EoE" method is fully supported in EtherCAT. What's the real-world situation here? Thanks!

I am back at setting up motors in the Power PMAC IDE. Rather than IDE 4.4.0.99 and a PowerPMAC 465 Clipper with a PowerPC,APM86xxx CPU and firmware 2.5.2.0, I am now using 4.6.0.14 and a CK3C AX1100 with an arm.LS1021A CPU and firmware version 2.7.1,0. My system uses IM483H-Plus amplifiers operating in torque mode and issuing step & direction control signals, Schneider M-2218-3.0 and M-2231-3.0 stepper motors with 200 full steps per rev, and US Digital E6 rotary encoders with 2000 lines/rev and quadrature. I use a single feedback type setup. The amplifier goes in fine. The motor shows a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark for an error message saying…

Hi, I'm tryng to pass a string as parameter to "system" command in a PLC like this: open plc SYSLOG_TEST system "logger -i -p user.debug -t test_plc %s", "Testing syslog on Delta Tau" disable plc SYSLOG_TEST close I'm getting this error: ...\21-SyslogTest.plc(30,1) : Error : ( error #31) data error in equation : system "logger -i -p user.debug -t test_plc %s", "Testing syslog on Delta Tau" But, at the POWER PMAC SOFTWARE REFERENCE MANUAL, the "system" command description says this: Firmware version: 2.6.0.0 What am I doing wrong?

Hello, Omron don't have forum for their products, so I put here the problems with its. Unfortunately, the UPS Omron S8BA is not compatible with PLC SIMATIC ET 200SP Open Controllers + Siemens IPC in System 24V with earth ground common with 0 VDC (-24V named sometimes). Is just compatible with 24V floating ground system. If you choose to put UPS Omron S8BA in a system 24V with earth ground common with 0 VDC and with the cable USB that communicate with IPC / PC where is installed Power Attendant Lite, then the UPS Control Unit won't start, but if you disconnect the communication cable RS232-USB, the UPS will start. Big Attention!!! If the communication cable RS232-U…

A topic on this was started (now closed) in 2016, hence this new topic since things might have changed in the meantime. For early software development and testing of host and/or target controller software, is there a simulator available for Power PMAC hardware such that I am not required to have a physical PMAC controller connected (on my desk)? Any other (best) practices you can share in this area are also very much appreciated. Thank you.

Hello, I am using a Normally Close switch for Abort Input signal. Does anyone know how to recover the AbortAll signal after the switch is in healthy state? I know one way to do it is to do $$$ but I don't want to reset the controller.

I have noticed that if a 'nan' value is assigned into a Gate3[i].Chan[j].PwmFreqMult, then 0 is set to it. Also, the IDE doesn't showed me any kind of error or warning when downloading. Tested on: FW: 2.5.0.4 CPU: PowerPC,APM86xxx IDE: 4.6.0.14 Is this behaviour expected?

How to use a PowerPMACUMAC to call multiple motion programs at the same time, or run a plc force control and a loaded motion program at the same time, to realize the combination of force control loads and a variety of sine wave signals with different phases, different peak values, and different frequencies (similar to in one adder)

Firmware version:2.6.1.0 Controller: CK3M Servo update frequency 4KHz. In my machine B axis is defined as #5-> 1#5->5965233B Coord[1].FRAxes = $1C0 //XYZ Coord[1].FR2Axes=$0 I am commanding as per the following program. G01 B0 F1000 dwell 500 B-10 dwell 500 B0 When I plot graph for commanded velovity and acceleration, it shows velocity is oscillates after acceleration is complete. Due to these fluctuations, acceleration feed forward is also fluctuating and creating noise in the motor. Can you suggest what should the cause?

We require the USB configuration due to consistent issues with vital steps missed through the IDE, so having a thumbdrive to eliminate human error seems necessary at this point. Currently loading onto a PowerBrick from USB drive. It seems to be loading the project itself fine, I have checked in the PMAC files (both through ftp and uploading the code from the PMAC after the thumbdrive upload) and it appears identical to the expected project. Unfortunately, every time the IDE is open it gives the project load error. When attempting to run the uploaded code that was on the PMAC, it results in an error involving the capp.out file. I have tried both method…

I am having an issue when using the plot program. After a gather operation is done...and I click the Upload button... I get this error: Any known bugs or useful workarounds here?? My normal procedure when Plot acts up is to close the IDE and restart. But, that's not doing the trick this time. Power cycled the CK3M, too.

From the manual, the command "p" is described as With Sys.MaxMotors=32, I'd expect that the position of axis A would be stored in Coord[x].Ldata.L[288], however the target position (not the current) is present in Coord[x].Ldata.L[512]. It happens in FW 2.5.0.4, cpu PowerPC,APM86xxx. Is that an error in the manual or am I missing something? Is there any L variable that keeps the current position for each axis reported like the command "p", or the only way is using the pread and D-variables? Thanks in advance.

I'm having some problems downloading projects with any coordinate systems defined to a Power Brick AC with older firmware (2.3.2.5). The IDE automatically adds the "Coord[1].SignIsDirType=0" setting to the systemsetup.cfg file, but that parameter is not supported on the older firmware, so it gives an ILLEGAL CMD error when it tries to download the systemsetup.cfg file. For now I'm working around the problem by just not defining the coordinate system in the project and manually sending the axis definition commands, but I was wondering if there's any way to exclude certain values from being generated in the systemsetup.cfg to prevent this problem.

Hello, I am using CK3M as a master to connect to a EtherCAT device. When I close the PowerPMAC IDE or disconnect the IDE from CK3M, the EtherCAT communication lost. Do you have any idea?

The system principle is as follows: 1: The driver receives an analog voltage signal(0-10V ) and controls the motor speed (issued by the ECAT analog module of CK3E); 2: The hydraulic system pressure sensor outputs a pressure signal (analog voltage 0-10V) to the ECAT analog receiving module of CK3E; At present, I am writing a PLC program that calculates the difference between the output value and the set value, and adjusts the stability of the system; A simple PID controller model is not an excellent approach. I would like to know if it is possible to use the built-in PID algorithm of CK3E to stabilize the system pressure through the input and output of …
