Some users have experienced issues connecting their Turbo PMAC to a Windows 8.1 (and 10) system via USB, and instead seeing "ACC54E USB" in Device Manager. If you experience this issue: Download the attached .zip file Extract the contents of it onto a USB Flashdrive connected to your computer Right click the "ACC54E USB" in Device Manager and select "Update Driver Software" Select "Browse my computer for driver software" and select the flashdrive. Windows 8.1 should be able to see and properly load the drivers this way, and Device Manager should now show the PMAC under "Motion Controllers". Windows 8.1 Drivers.zip

If PeWin32Pro2 crashes on startup with the EAccessViolation error message (shown below), look in the C:\Windows\PEWIN32PRO2.INI file and then locate and remove the correct INI file as specified by the ActiveIni line. PeWin will recreate the initialization file on startup. By default, this initialization file is PEWIN32PRO2_Default.INI in your PeWin32Pro2 folder (C:\Program Files\Delta Tau\PMAC Executive Pro2 Suite\Pewin32Pro2\ by default).

NOTE: Before trying to change your Delta Tau Device's IP Address, make sure you have the latest version of PeWin32Pro2 installed. You can get it by going to our Downloads page , and then clicking "Select a Software"-->"PMAC Executive Pro2 Suite", and then clicking "Download". Before changing the IP Address, make completely sure PeWin32Pro2 is closed (i.e. not running) and PCommServer.exe is not running in the Processes shown in the Windows Task Manager (to access Windows Task Manager, hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete, and click "Task Manager" if Windows 7 or Vista, but in other versions of Windows Task Manager should come up automatically). Making sure your USB cable is plugged…

Geo Brick LV Setup Assistant Spreadsheet is updated to version 2.9 with following changes: The spreadsheet supports parameter settings for Stepper motors with real feedback (such as Quadrature). These Stepper motors are setup as "high count pole-pair brushless motors". If Encoder Type for any motor type is selected as Microstepping, then Step Angle and Max RPM values are used for Microstepping calculations, regardless of type of motor. If any Encoder Type other than Microstepping is selected, both servo and commutation will use the selected encoder type and no Microstepping commutation method is used.

If you are experiencing communications failure on a Turbo PMAC (meaning you cannot talk to the PMAC from the host computer), please try these suggestions before calling the Technical Support Hotline: Make sure all necessary power and communications cables (e.g., Serial, USB, Ethernet) are properly inserted and secured. Try cycling power (shut down the system and then power back up). Make sure you have the latest version of PeWin32Pro2 or PeWin32Pro. You can download the newest versions on the Delta Tau Downloads Website: http://www.deltatau.com/DT_SoftwareDownload/SoftwareDownload.aspx Make sure you have the USB patch and the software compatibility patch if you are…

I have an application about the Modbus TCP, There are two sub stations which is taken as client, the both sub station have some input/output module separated , and take UMAC which active socket is 2 as Modbus Server . I set I67 = $10700, so the start address of client Modbus Buffer is $10780. I have some puzzle about addressing for each client. when addressing, if the both sub stations occupy the addresses starting with word 0, how to distinguish their address? or how to avoid overlap address between two sub station?

I'm wondering how to see the effect of the compensation table on the motor. I'm using I51 to switch between 0/1 and thought I find the effect in the difference between M161 and M162 or maybe in M169. However these don't seem to change. The compensation table is defined as: #1 DEF COMP 2438,#1D,#1,16384 ... Where can I find this?

Dear all, I had faced issues in the past with dpram on Turbo PMAC and managed to make it work with the help of Steve. I used Bin rotary to execute the larger NC codes and normal coordinates update through DeviceResponse(). I tried the similar code on a new machine with v1.95 (previously v.1.94) and the program initially was executing for smaller size programs and also updated coordinates. We tried to run larger file size and it failed. After which, we had changed the buffer size and now none of the file gets executed. We provide a "&1B0R" after sending a set of NC lines and I57=1 and I58=1. Size command gives 25006 while rot buffer closed and 13046 while it's open. …

Hello All, We have a fleet of the Geobrick Turbo PMAC based application. We build our own HMI and using PCommServerLib for communciation, which is 32 bit. Recently we are planning to upgrade our software to 64 bit and the current PCommServerLib would not be compatible. Such that, I am wondering if there is any 64 bit version of the pcommserverlib dll that we could use, or any other communication approaches that is compatible with a 64bit application Thanks for the insights Warren

Hi folks, I've recently added some new equipment to a Z-Axis as part of an upgrade. This has added a fair bit of weight to the axis and the motor isn't coping too well as a result. There is another machine on site ( a Fanuc), that uses air assist which works really well, so, i'd like to try the same approach on the affected machine. Controller is a Turbo Pmac2 in a UMAC configuration. I've configured a spare output (M7135) and tested it ok. Could someone provide me with a code example on how to fire this output? Output to energise an air solenoid. Basically what is required is, once a counter-clockwise movement of the motor is detected, M7135 needs to go high. M…

Delta Tau Person in charge Thank you for your help. There is software (VB6.0) using PTalkDT.ocx on old PC (Windows2000 or XP). This time, OS was updated to Windows10 (32bit or 64bit). Does Pcomm32w.dll have the same function as "UploadData" of PTalkDT.ocx used in software (VB6.0)? I want to upload PMAC internal data (Gather) with software (VB6.0) and save it to a file. Please introduce any manuals you refer to. that's all, thank you very much.

We are having problems with corrupt dual port ram read data. The diagnostic supplied in PEWin is only Write from PMAC/ Verify on PC. I need to operate in the other direction, ie Write from PC/Verify on PMAC. Ideally this test would be able to do $5555, $AAAA, Walking zero, walking ones and checkerboard. Has anybody put together such a diagnostic?

Hello everyone, I tried running a G code on my PMAC and I noticed that Rapid move (G00) and Dwell (G04) commands are not responding the way I thought they should considering their corresponding PMAC program command. The G04 does not respond and the G00 command moves very slow than expected I have run the G-code subroutine program (PROG 1000). It seems strange to me because other G-code commands work alright. Please can anyone provide any information that will guide me to fix this? Thank you Regards, Sam

Hello everyone, I just configured a micro milling machine and in order to test the machine, I wrote a simple program to generate a profile. The program has linear and circle commands. I ran the program yesterday and it worked. it generated the profile I wanted. but I came in today to test the same program but it's not generating the profile. instead of circular motion, it is generating a straight line. please can anybody tell me what might be the cause? I will sincerely appreciate your assistance to help me fix this problem Thank you Regards, Samuel

Hello everyone, Please I want to ask if it is possible to run a Profile Simulation using the PEWIN32PRO2 software? I am setting up a micro-milling system that will cut simple and complex profiles. So, I want to write a program that can cut a profile using the micro milling machine but before conducting a real cutting process, I want to run the program and see the resulting output profile on the terminal. Please I will like to know if this is possible using the PENWIN32PRO2 SOFTWARE? Thank you. Regards, Sam PS: I using three motors with a TURBO2, X4, and a spindle.
