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 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…

We are using the PCommServer Pro2 Library for our .NET HMI to talk to our turbo clipper PMAC over USB. We are using a dedicated thread to continuously query the PMAC using GetResponseEx(). We have an event handler set up to deal with unsolicited responses. Everything works well until an unsolicited response (such as a SENDP in a motion file) comes in at the same time as a reply to a GetResponseEx() query. When that happens, the unsolicited reply gets lost or gets merged into the response for the GetResponseEx(). How do we get unsolicited responses to work reliably?

Hello All Does anyone know if there is a way to get a Turbo umac to communicate with an UPC UA server. I am thinking someone may know of a piece of windows software that will allow PE-eWin32 to communicate with an UPC UA server on the same computer. Hopefully all three pieces will run nicely on a windows 10 pro platform. I am trying to build an HMI platform for our machines that are still running on windows XP. If anyone has any other ideas how to achieve this please let me know. Mike Winrich

I have several machines with Geo Brick drives where I need to collect register data near real time. Currently the PC running custom HMI is connected to the drive over USB. I can't seem to find a definite answer in the docs (yet), so I thought to ask it here. Can I create a separate .NET 3.5 application on the same PC and create a secondary connection, through PCommServer, for my purposes to the same drive? Can I make an ethernet connection while USB connection is in use? If so, is this a straight ASCII exchange or do I need to go through PCommServer libraries? Finally, does the RS232 serial port support straight ASCII command-response exchange, without a…

Currently have a TurboPMAC2 3U, 4 axis interface, encoder/stepper/ 48 out/ 24in in a rack. Can I replace the TurboPMAC with a PowerPMAC? I'm about to update a customers pmacLite/ISA/Win95 from 20 years ago. It has some PLC programs and ocx communication library? But I doubt I can replicate the win95/ visual basic UI, and purchase communications library. I can't even find PEWIN32 - although it is on customer machine, so I can offload those text based programs. Thanks -Greg

Good Day! It so happened that I had a Delta TAU Turbo PMAC-Eth-Lite Controlle controller with a set of drives (5 to be exact) in stock. I want to use it as a CNC system for a milling machine. Please tell me what documentation and programs should be considered in my case to achieve this goal? And yet, if I understand correctly, the human-machine interface will also need to be implemented on the computer itself - are there already ready-made templates for this? I will be very grateful for your answers.

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
