ACC36E setup parameter can't be saved in PPMAC,Why

[dzrong]

I'm using PPower whith ACC-36E.

After setting OK and saved,the setting will lost after reset,why?

Should these parameter be setup once in PLC after PPMAC start?

//ACC-36E BE SET EVERY POWER CYCLY MUST

AdcDemux.Address[0] = $A00000

AdcDemux.Address[1] = $A00000

AdcDemux.Address[2] = $A00000

AdcDemux.Address[3] = $A00000

AdcDemux.Address[4] = $A00000

AdcDemux.Address[5] = $A00000

AdcDemux.Address[6] = $A00000

AdcDemux.Address[7] = $A00000

/**************** if bipolar , signed ********************/

// for bipolar ACC 36E

ADCDemux.ConvertCode[0] = $800800; // convert ADC's 1 & 9 from ADCDemux.Address[4]

ADCDemux.ConvertCode[1] = $900900; // convert ADC's 2 & 10 from ADCDemux.Address[5]

ADCDemux.ConvertCode[2] = $A00A00; // convert ADC's 3 & 11 from ADCDemux.Address[6]

ADCDemux.ConvertCode[3] = $B00B00; // convert ADC's 4 & 12 from ADCDemux.Address[7]

ADCDemux.ConvertCode[4] = $C00C00; // convert ADC's 5 & 13 from ADCDemux.Address[8]

ADCDemux.ConvertCode[5] = $D00D00; // convert ADC's 6 & 14 from ADCDemux.Address[9]

ADCDemux.ConvertCode[6] = $E00E00; // convert ADC's 7 & 15 from ADCDemux.Address[10]

You must also set AdcDemux.Enable. This controls the number of pairs of multiplexed A/D converters that are processed. If it is saved at 0 none of the AdcDemux.Address[n] values will be saved. In your case it should be set to 8.

[dzrong]

Hello,Steve

Thanks for you reply.

No problem "AdcDemux.Enable = 8" already.Can't be saved still.

 

I try very simple test.

1、$$$***；

2、save;

3、$$$

4、p2=1000

5、save

6、$$$

Then,ask for p2,

p2 is 0.

 

By the way,my PPMAC is totlly new.

 

It seems the flash of PPMAC have problem.But it totlly new.The firmware is 1.6.0.30.

[dzrong]

I try another PPMAC CPU,the software version is 1.3.0.0,

same trying,same result,p2=0 after saved and $$$.

So, maybe it's not the CPU problem.But who's problem? The backplane?

 

My new PPmac system is :

 

Master:

POWER PMAC CPU

+ ACC-24E2S X 5

+ ACC-5E3(16 node)

+ ACC-36E

+ ACC-65E

+ ACC-R2

Slave:

16 Axis MACRO CPU-OPT-A

+ ACC-24E2S

+ ACC-36E

+ ACC-65E x 2

+ ACC-R1

 

And the ACC36Es and ACC24E2Ss works well both master and slave except PPmac CPU.ACC-65E on Master side work well,on the Slave side is tested now.

[dzrong]

New trying of New PPmac:

 

p1000 is same to p2,will lost;

plc1 will lost after save and $$$.

 

But,

prog2 will be saved corectly,and not lost after $$$.

[steve.milici]

The "AdcDemux" structures are saved setup elements but P-variables are not saved. Depending on how a PLC was sent to the POWER PMAC it may not be saved. If it was part of your current project it will be saved. If this PLC were sent on another communication thread outside the "download" feature of the IDE, it will be considered a transient program and will not be saved.

[steve.milici]

New trying of New PPmac:

 

p1000 is same to p2,will lost;

plc1 will lost after save and $$$.

 

But,

prog2 will be saved corectly,and not lost after $$$.

 

Also, take a look at the "Hardware Diagnosis" screen of the "Power PMAC System Setup" does all of your hardware properly show up there?:

[dzrong]

Yes,all hardware are there.Also all ACC24E2S and ACC65E and ACC36E and ACC5E3 works correctly in the Master Station.

Also all ACC24E2S and ACC36E works correctly in the SLAVE except ACC-65E,because I'm trying now.

[steve.milici]

The PLC1 you have that doesn't save - is it in your project?

[dzrong]

Yes,it's in the project.Because,it's runing after I download them to the PPmac,I can see the P1 is adding(P1=p1+1 in the PLC1).

But,after save and $$$,it lost.

[dzrong]

The ACC65E in the macro works right now,so everything in my system works well except the PPmac CPU can't save some parameters and P var and plcs.

[dzrong]

The paremeters about axis can be saved correctly.Likes:

Motor[1].ServoCtrl = 1

Gate1[4].Chan[0].OutputMode = 3

Motor[1].Servo.Kvfb=10

 

The paremeters about Macro can be saved correctly.Likes:

Sys.WpKey=$AAAAAAAA;

//MACRO Communication Setup

Gate3[0].MacroEnableA=$FCCFF00; //Activate 4 Servo Nodes and 6 IO Nodes of MACRO A

Gate3[0].MacroModeA=$403000; // Set MACRO A as master

It seem the P varialbe can't be saved in the flash,but can be init in PLCs.It's maybe a huge differece to Turbo.

The problem of the plcs can't be saved maybe the IDE is sensitive to OS.

[steve.milici]

What is the version of the IDE?

[dzrong]

The lasted one:1.6.0.109.

[steve.milici]

Can you show the content response of the terminal window when you enter a "SAVE" command?

[sjlee5]

Hi, dzrong.

 

As a default you cannot save P-variables with "SAVE" command.

Before you save variables, you must modify some files.

 

Please refer to this thread.

[Richard Naddaf]

How are you using/defining P-Variables?

 

We recommend using the GLOBAL designation with an optional initial value. Example:

 

GLOBAL MyVar = 1024;

 

This is equivalent to having P-Variables initialize in power-up PLC.
