CompactLogix using Analog Press Encoder
tip2112 replied to jrupp82's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Just a thought , is your ejector pneumatic? If so then Mechanical "drag" or air flow limitations during certain cycles may be the true culprit of your delayed timing ( would also check for "sticky" valve -
CompactLogix using Analog Press Encoder
tip2112 replied to jrupp82's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Most mechanical style presses have "built-in" Programmable CAMS that are designed to specifically control this type of operation, granted thereare still "time" constraints and propagation delays associated with relay and valve actuation but they are generally pretty "tight" if your press speed is within the original design parameters of the press manufacturer. Does your press NOT have Programmable CAMS? -

If you are running at 32 SPM, then a 3 degree window is @ 4.44 mSec in time length -

-
I have used these in many web thickness applications, but not sure how effective they may be on damp wood veneer (may absorb too much sound from sensor) http://www.bannerengineering.com/en-US/products/sub/235/U-GAGE-Q45UR-Series%E2%80%94Analog Have also used laser sensors aimed at a roller (with empty roller being zero reference) and measuring the thickness of material as it passes around the roler.

RsLogix 500 and Eaton SVX 9000 VFD
tip2112 replied to Valentin1980's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
By looking at the Eaton website http://www.eaton.com/Eaton/ProductsServices/Electrical/ProductsandServices/AutomationandControl/AdjustableFrequencyDrives/IndustrialDrives/SVX/index.htm#tabs-2 , it appears that you will need the OPCTK (Ethernet/IP) option board for your drive and the manual for that board gives examples for SLC 500 series messaging for data elements, really depends on what level of control you are trying to achieve by ethernet -
Convert 4 bytes of SINT to Decimal Value
tip2112 replied to ECSI's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Well your data is "broken" into 8 bit words, so the binary to decimal conversion for your first word (Shuttle:I.Data[4]) is 112 the conversion for your second word is 148 (not -108 as shown) . If you multiply your second word by 256 (8-bit) 148 * 256 = 37888, then ADD the value of your first word: 37888 + 112 = 38000 -
Downloading new program to 1746-BAS via Hyperterminal
tip2112 replied to ME90's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
The PROG command is for saving the Program into the *Optional* EEPROM, Do you actually have the EEPROM ? If so it may not be properly seated, but JW3 is set correctly (by your post) to use this EEPROM,... if it exists. I would recommend "trying" your Program (type "RUN") to make sure it is working before trying to save into EEPROM -
The DV-90 Unit from Keyence will do what you want (up to 900 stored references), but pretty sure you need to use their scanner and not certain of cost compared to doing it with the PLC.

Allen-Bradley 1746-HSTP1 & Mitsubishi MR-J3 servo
tip2112 replied to kaiser_will's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Yes, we have numerous lines with this configuration. They are mainly indexers for position control. But we are using MR -J2 thru MR-J4 Mitsubishi controllers and motors , with the positioning commands coming from AB stepper modules. They work quite well for that aspect. Have not done much with speed control (other "jog" mode on the indexers) so I cannot vouch for that application but I would suspect that would perform equally as well -
Doea anyone know if it is possible to password protect access to the Position Registers in a Fanuc robot w/ R30iA controller and HTML based teach pendant

Not sure what you are looking for but,The 1400 allows you to modify data file parameters directly from the LCD / Keypad. With a little "programming" you can create your own messages and variables you wish to address.

RSLogix vs. RSLinx compatability
tip2112 replied to PDX_Controls's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
The symptoms you describe "typically" occur with your RSLinx CIP options not being "optimized" for SLC 5/05 ethernet comms. The recommended settings per AB: From the PCCC Encapsulation tab set as follows "check" Use for Fast PCCC requests "check" Use for Slow PCCC requests Messaging connection parameters: 8.00 sec retry interval 256 sec timeout Max Fast connections 1 Max Slow connections 1 Max Unconnected messages 4 DH+ connections: 4.00 sec retry interval 32 sec timeout Max Fast connections 4 Max Slow connections 2 These settings apply to SLC 5/05 and Microlgix 1100 Ethernet (as well as ETH/IP) communications -
Keep in mind that you can ONLY force physical I/O not Binary or other data bits. RS5000 does not have Revision notes, however you can edit the Properties of your saved file through the "Summary" tab. Type what you wish into the comments section, and this will be visible If your mouse "hovers" over the file during file selection, or windows explorer.
