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).

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

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.

Please refer to the attached tutorial ("Servo Loop Tuning.pdf") for some practical guidelines for tuning the servo loop. Please try to tune according to these suggestions if you have any following error-related problems before calling Technical Support. For a theoretical description of the functionality of each gain in the servo algorithm, refer to the attached "Servo Algorithm.pdf" document. Servo Loop Tuning.pdf Servo Algorithm.pdf

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…

Hi everyone, First, I want to say I am relatively new to this level of CNC programming, so please excuse my lack of knowledge if I am missing something critical here. I've always dealt with machines that are relatively plug and play. I have been tasked with loading a waterjet with a new CNC control software. I am going to use Mach3 or Mach4 from ArtSoft. I have Yaskawa SGDM Servopacks for motion, and a CLIPPER BOARD TURBO PMAC2A-ETH board. The computer used to control the system is a 32 bit windows machine (i386). The PC already communicates with the clipper board via ethernet using PeWin32Pro2. I have 2 main questions with this. Does anyone have any r…

Hi! I am using V1.945 on a DSP56311 I set m1->d:$0010FF I set m1=(2^35)-1 (34359738367) I increment/decrement m1 by 1: m1=m1+1 resp m1=m1-1 - but the result is not always +1 higher / less: Is this issue known / solved in later fw-releases? Greetings, Anton

Hi! I got to handle an equation like this one in a plcc0: q1 = (m1 - m2 + m3/m4)%p1 where m1->d:$ with varrying value from endlessly one-way running counter m2->d:$ with constant value (any range within +- 2^47) m3->d:$ with constant value (-1e08 to 1e08) m4->y:$ with constant value (1 to 10e6) p1 with constant value (2 to 10e7) I have to use the modulo operator "%" to limit the range of q1. The reason is that I have only 32 bit to transmit the value of q1 further on to the host. My concern is data loss when it comes to very high values (above 2e10 a q-variable 'looses' >1ct) Is there…

I'm looking to repair a few burnt-out IC chips on the main PCB of a Advantage 900 Remote Operator, but due to them being burnt out, I can't figure out what chips they are. Everyone I've tried to contact either doesn't have one I can reference, or its in storage and they're unwilling to take it apart. To make things worse, the only schematic I have been able to find of it is too low quality to read any of the text. I've attached an image of the PCB, and an up-close shot of the burnt chips. If anyone could help me figure out what these are, I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm currently working on a project using a Delta Tau MACRO control system, but I've run into a bit of a roadblock: Currently, the system includes a Delta Tau PMAC TURBO ULTRA-LITE Command card installed in a Windows Computer, an ACC-68M, and 2 ACC-85M cards, driving SGDV-R90AE1A and SGDV-2R8AE1A Servopacks. I don't have much real estate to work with for placing electrical components, so much so that I've had to resort to mounting parts transversally. I also require a significant number of Analog I/O pins for sensors and controls. Is there a product that is about the same size as an ACC-68M, is mounted and connected in a similar fashion, and can operate on the MACRO c…

We bought a Turbo Clipper model 4-3871C3-2005-300000 in the secondary market. It came with just one jumper installed, on header JP1. When we powered the board up, the watchdog LED D3 came up red immediately. We had a miscue by putting the 50-wire ribbon cable on in reverse, which in effect connected +5 V on our side at pin 47 to pin 4 (GND) on the Clipper, and which we fixed after a few minutes. Pins 1-4 and 48-50 are not connected to anything on our side, so I hope that we may have a chance for not having burned up any component. I need to know if missing all E jumpers would lead to the D3 LED lighting up red, and I need to know which jumpers need to be present …

I've recently been tasked with starting the transition between Turbo PMAC to Power PMAC. As we progress, I need a short-term solution for machine support and am attempting to connect via a TCP socket on port 1025 per the manual. I saw in another thread a post about and ethernet communications manual, but the link has since decayed. I understand this is obsolete and support is limited. I have established the socket connection but am having issues getting the drive to respond to the "0x40 0xB0 #4J+" commands. I'm assuming it should be "00110000 01111000 00110100 00110000 00100000 00110000 01111000 01000010 00110000 00100000 00100011 00110100 01001010 00101011" but…

I am still working with PMAC controllers (UMAC, PMAC2-PC104, Turbo Clipper) with our in-house specific software developed under PewinPro. We have some 250 machines in the field. To help customers diagnose occasional problems and installing upgraded versions of our motion software, we have created a small Windows application (Borland C++ Builder 5) that allows sending commands (GetResponseEx), select a controller, and download our precompiled motion software (i.e., a .56K file). For those systems using Windows 7 (64 as well as 32) or older (back to Windows 98 SE) all works well. For the latest machines that use Windows 10, we use the drivers that come with Pewi…
