[put and read a file (.txt) into PMAC flashmemory]

I am able to drag a text file into gather or usrflash no problem on multiple PMAC CPU types through ftp in a file explorer like your computer shows. What PMAC form factor is this and can you share the file or try with a dummy text file with just a sentence written?

 

the Pmac is POWER PMAC CLIPsee P233I-E-01 [4-4050JA0-310-000000] and the text file (.txt) that i tried put was:

 

start=1;

stop=0;

[put and read a file (.txt) into PMAC flashmemory]

If you place the file in the ftp top level directory it should be located in /var/ftp. So pass the full file path to fopen:

 

fp = fopen("/var/ftp/test.txt", "r");

 

 

thanks for your answer.

 

I try but when i put the file into the ftp folder the system throw the attached problems.

 

how can i enable and wich is the best folder to put the file?

 

thanks again

[put and read a file (.txt) into PMAC flashmemory]

Hi,

 

i have a aplication on windows 7 that generate a output file in .txt format.

I need that the pmac have acces to this file to read and load global variables with the information.

 

I try put file using the ftp (ftp://192.168.200.1) but i dont have succes.

 

i create a C aplication into pmac using libraries

 

#include

#include

#include

 

but i have dude with the path to acces a file. if you can give me a example how to put the path and where is the best place to put the file.

 

thanks.

 

int main(void)

{

FILE * fp;

char * line = NULL;

int len = 0;

int read;

struct Data data;

{

 

};

fp = fopen("test.txt", "r");

if (fp != NULL){

while ((read = getline(&line, &len, fp)) != -1) {

data = getValue(line, read);

}

fclose(fp);

if (line)

free(line);

}

printStructure(&data);

return 0;

}

[servomotor controller with external components]

This would be possible if the NX coupler has the latest firmware supporting Distributed Clocks. Once the PDOs are mapped for the analog outputs, encoder feedback and I/O for amplifier enable and amplifier fault, you can setup the motor something like this (assuming default settings):

EncTable.type=1

EncTable.pEnc=ECAT.IO.Data.a //PDO mapped to encoder feedback

EncTable.ScaleFactor=1

Motor[x].pEnc = EncTable.a

Motor[x].pEnc2 = EncTable.a

Motor[x].pDac = ECAT.IO[j].Data.a //PDO mapped to analog outputs

Motor[x].pAmpFault = ECAT.IO[j].Data.a //PDO mapped to input for amplifier fault

Motor[x].AmpFaultBit = {n} //bit position for amplifier fault

Motor[x].pAmpEnable = ECAT[0].IO[25].Data.a //PDO mapped to output for amplifier enable

Motor[x].AmpEnableBit = {n} //bit position for amplifier enable

 

Tune the motor appropriately for the drive type.

 

Thanks, is it posible buy a ethercat 4 servo axes licences for a power clipper?

when i set Motor[x].pDac = ECAT.IO[j].Data.a my ethercat system fail because i dont have the ethercat license for axes.

[servomotor controller with external components]

Hi,

 

i need to know if is posible controller a servomotor with external components over ethercat.

 

I have the following diagram of controll.

 

Pmac Clippsee with ACC-24S3 expansion board

|

Ethercat

|

Ethercat coupler NX-ECC203 (Omron)

|

Analog output module+-10Vdc (NX-DA2605)|| encoder input module (NX-EC0132)

 

so i want controller the servo with internal PID (advanced) like a motor #9.

 

i think that is posible create a "ghost" motor and put the encoder feedback and the analog output.

 

any experience or help is welcome.

 

thanks.

[use a ADC_IN[n] to read Analog of PC Joystick]

Can you directly read the ADC raw register at: Clipper[0].Chan[0].AdcEnc, i=0,1,2,3?

 

Verify that you have the ADC option.

 

thanks Steve, i don´t have the option unfortunately.

[use a ADC_IN[n] to read Analog of PC Joystick]

Hi,

 

i modify a PC Joystick to move my omnidirecctional machine, but i don´t can read the value of analog control. I load the configuration that appears in the Power Clipper Manual, but the variable ADC_In have a static value of -1.

 

Sys.WpKey = $AAAAAAAA; // Disable Write-Protection

Clipper[0].Chan[0].PackInData = 0; // Unpack Input Data all ADCs J3, J7

PTR ADCIN_1->S.IO:$900030.20.12; // ADCIN_1 J3 [bits]

PTR ADCIN_2->S.IO:$900034.20.12; // ADCIN_2 J3 [bits]

PTR ADCIN_3->S.IO:$900038.20.12; // ADCIN_3 J7 [bits]

PTR ADCIN_4->S.IO:$90003C.20.12; // ADCIN_4 J7 [bits]

 

pag. 34 of Power Clipper User Manual.

 

the feedback of servo is by the enconders channel inputs and work fine.

 

i try the other configuration that appears but without a good response.

 

ADC1VoltsIn = ((Clipper[0].Chan[0].AdcEnc[0] >> 20) * 10 / 2048) - ADC1ZeroOffset ;

ADC2VoltsIn = ((Clipper[0].Chan[0].AdcEnc[1] >> 20) * 10 / 2048) – ADC2ZeroOffset ;

ADC3VoltsIn = ((Clipper[0].Chan[0].AdcEnc[2] >> 20) * 10 / 2048) – ADC3ZeroOffset ;

ADC4VoltsIn = ((Clipper[0].Chan[0].AdcEnc[3] >> 20) * 10 / 2048) – ADC4ZeroOffset ;

 

i need modify some other variable to enable the ADC_In?

 

Thanks

[Motor #1 disable Motor #2,#3 and #4]

Hi, i have a CS with four motor configurated with the same characteristics.

 

this motors are conected to the JMACH 1 of my Power Pmac Clipper Controller. I have the fault motors input floating and only connected the DACs output and Encoders Input to the controller.

 

If i move each motor in the jog mode, all motor works find, but when i try enable all motor using #xj/ command to enable the CS the motor #1 send to fault other motors.

 

for example

 

#2j/ -> motor[2].fault=0

#3j/ -> motor[3].fault=0

#4j/ -> motor[4].fault=0

#1j/ -> motor[1].fault=0, motor[2].fault=1, motor[3].fault=1, motor[4].fault=1

 

So i never can enable the CS.

 

Hi,

 

Since you are not using the amplifier fault bits, try disabling them:

 

Motor[1].pAmpFault = 0

Motor[2].pAmpFault = 0

Motor[3].pAmpFault = 0

Motor[4].pAmpFault = 0

Thanks Chris, now i can enable all motor togethers.

[List of All Tested EtherCAT Devices]

someone is it working with NX Modules (Omron)?

 

the Ethercat configuration into the "System Setup" only load the Ethercat Coupler file (NX-ECC20x) but when i try to load the modules files nothing happend.

 

I tried load the ESI file into the "ESI MANAGER" of "EC-Engenier" and when i load the NX-Modules.XML file the system says that the file is invalid.

 

My Ethercat Configuration is:

 

NX-ECC203 (Version 1.5) / DA2605 / EC0132 / EC0132 / ID5442 / OD5121

Hi,

 

i have the same problem, and when ask for the information , the PMAC response:

 

Gate3[0].PartType 0

Gate3[0].PartOpt0 nan

Gate3[0].PartRev nan

Gate3[0].PartType nan

 

and if answer with Clipper[0]

 

Clipper[0].PartType nan

Clipper[0].PartOpt0 nan

Clipper[0].PartRev nan

for the motor setup, i create a .cfg file in the configuration folder and put the setup code, but when i ask for some configuration variable the value are different that i setup in the file.
