Hello. I'm using PMac APM CPU (485). I need to sizing up my memory, because i need to download 500MB size NC-Code. After i size up memory to 510MB, Download, Save, ReBoot, WatchDog has red light, and My Power PMac doesn't working. Can't connect by PMac IDE. i tried to initialize PPMac, by taking off my Axis Control Card, Reboot. but it does not working. Is there anyway to initialize my Power PMac? I can't use pmac ide S/W Because, in PMac IDE, i can't connect to my PPMac. i ping to 192.168.0.200 by CMD. it was responded. if anyone has anything solution about this, le…

Dear All, I'm trying to save a project after building and downloading successfully. Unfortunately, it throws a list of error stating that the files are READ-ONLY. Also the variables created are accessible until PMAC is powered off. Once powered OFF all the parameters are missing. Can I know what causes these issues? Thank you.

I have a lathe project where the operator wants the zero position to be in the middle of the chuck and the home position to be at the beginning of the travel where the home switch is. I currently have it programmed to perform a home search move until it hits the home switch but then the zero is not in the center where they want it. Is there an effective way to do this without installing a switch in the middle of the travel? thank you

Here is a sample of the code I am trying to run. The tool will move to the correct offset position, will spiral down to -0.180, completing the second line of the spiral, then it simply stops and I have an error.

Im wondering the best way to be able to add a tool offset on linear axis I can seem to find the correct command. For instance a tool with a .1 offset should be able to input .1 in the axis offset and the position will stop .1short. Thanks

I'm seeing references on the Omron website on the Power PMAC IDE page to a new IDE version 4.6.0.14 released back in May .. there are software release notes as well as some "Product News" / "Power PMAC IDE Modification Notice" .. but don't see the actual IDE version there to be downloaded. Is there some alternate place to download the new version from?

The homing reference index of Motor[4] is changed to the TTL signal accessed by Acc24E3[1].Chan[0]; pCaptFlag and pCaptPos change from Acc24E3[0].Chan[3] to Acc24E3[1].Chan[0] as the reference signal, the configuration is as follows: Motor[4].pCaptFlag=Acc24E3[1].Chan[0].Status.a //Modified Motor[4].pCaptPos=Acc24E3[1].Chan[0].HomeCapt.a//Modified EncTable[4].pEnc = Gate3[0].Chan[3].ServoCapt.a EncTable[4].pEnc1 = Gate3[0].Chan[3].AtanSumOfSqr.a Motor[4].pEnc = EncTable[4].a; Motor[4.pEnc2 = EncTable[4].a; Motor[4].pEncCtrl =Acc24E3[0].Chan[3].OutCtrl.a Motor[4].pEncStatus=Acc24E3[0].Chan[3].Status.a The bad problem is…

It appears PPMAC originally did not support negative case constants in switch structures. However, the firmware update history for V2.5 Release Updates (August 2018) includes the following note: But when I try to use code such as the following, I get a Syntax Error on the minus sign: Has the IDE just not been updated to support this change yet? Is there a different syntax I should use here? Or am I misreading the history note and this is actually not supported?

I am troubleshooting an issue related to a servo motor which we use to drive a monochromator Bragg axis. At a specific range of the motion, we observe that the x-ray beam jitters possibly due to motor oscillation. The motor is driven by an external amplifier and we use power PMAC for torque control. The motion is typically carried out by executing a motion program. We first observe the issue with our data. Afterwards we jogged the motor in the questionable range and was able to narrow down on the range where we see the oscillation. The x-ray beam stabilize upon killing power to the motor. I am guessing that the motor is trying to correct its position during this range. In…

I remember there is a setting to reduce the velocity in all motors but I can't find it in the manuals. All the motors are moving slowly so I suspect someone set this in the terminal. Thanks.

Dear All, I'm working on a three axes system with two vector feedrate linear axes (X&Z) and one rotary C axis. I would like to know how to set the three axes to move synchronised based on a given feedrate? Currently if running C-axis alone, provides a max feedrate of 1 motor unit/ min. Can anyone suggest the best practice to assign and synchronize axes motion? Thank you.

I am running a real time PLC that is stuffing position data into registers that I can read from later. I'd like to filter the positions to take random out . My plan was to make a simple average. Is there a feature in PowerPMAC that can already do this for me, or do I need to roll my own? How fast is the RTI PLC operating (or how can I look it up on my machine?). I am reading the data around 2000 Hz, so I need to make sure my running average is a lot faster than that.

This is going to get a little long in the tooth, my apologies... I have converted Turbo PMAC (Clipper) software to Power PMAC for use with CK3M as I've been told Clippers are very hard to get anymore. Traditionally we used the Restore menu option in PEWIN32Pro to load a single .CFG file we update (there are actually several files for different machine variations we sell). We never did get into include-files, so everything is self contained in a single .CFG. As you can probably imagine, this makes quick edits/variable updates quite easy for non-experts to accomplish. As we are moving toward using Power PMAC in our machines, I'm wondering about best practices for manag…

We were told when we ordered powerpmac that there was a lathe function in the default project. It looks from the Gcodes and NC software like it is set up for a mill. Is there a base project with lathe functions instead of the default mill? Thank you

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…

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
