Yes I know. is there also a hot swap function if connection is lost to broker 1 ?. For example there is critical application and the broker always must be available and if there is BSOD for example in broker 1 and it goes down,then we need to carry on broker 2 without any human interference's would that be possible ?

Hi does anyone have experience with MQTT in production ? Pros & cons /Best Regards
-
Nice to hear, is it possible with MQTT to create redundant systems like two brokers ?
-
What is your experience with it,is it recommended to be used on running machines, easy implementation ? is one mqtt broker better than an another ?

EtherCAT Splitbox with FSoE and Omron?
Lipton replied to Lipton's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Thanks for the info @Str8jCkt we can relate to the pain :), Must say that it sucks that when using a Omron safety controller we don't have the benefits that Fail safe over EtherCAT provide, Example is Reduced and Simplified Wiring Flexibility of Safety Functions Scalability Cost Savings FSoE is an open standard, ensuring compatibility and interoperability among different manufacturers' safety devices except for Omron they are conservative with closed minds! Sadly we need to rethink if Omron is the right platform to use for our machines. Combine this safety slaves below with the Omron controller would be very streamlined and easy install for us machines builders. list is taken from https://www.ethercat.org/en/technology.html -
Hi We are searching for a EtherCAT splitbox with safe digital inputs that is compatible with Omron NX. for a example a hardware like this one https://www.beckhoff.com/en-en/products/automation/twinsafe/twinsafe-hardware/ep1908-0002.html has anyone successfully connected this type of hardware to the omron ethercat network ? /Best Regards

EtherCAT Splitbox with FSoE and Omron?
Lipton replied to Lipton's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
There is already a EtherCAT network on the machine it would be very naturally and streamline to collect safe signals with decentralized I/O with hardware like above, would be very easy install. Tried to load another FSoE device this time a safety scanner from sick and it seems that Omron is not compatible with this one either... :( https://www.sick.com/us/en/catalog/products/safety/safety-laser-scanners/microscan3/mics3-abaz55en1p01/p/p660215?tab=detail We don't want to pull another data cable on the machine when there is already one EtherCAT network that we can take advantage of and use one communication system for both control and safety data. is there a list of FSoE devices that Omron are compatible with? -
EtherCAT Splitbox with FSoE and Omron?
Lipton replied to Lipton's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
@Crossbow Imported the ESI file from beckhoff's webpage and Sysmac did not like it :( "The ESI file is not supported by Sysmac studio" is there another FSoE hardware we can try ? -

Sick AFM60A as Encoder Axis in Sysmac studio (CIA 406)
Lipton posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Hello. I wonder if anyone with success as been able to map Sick AFM60A encoder PDO's to a Encoder Axis in sysmac studio and use it some application ? I have tried in offline mode and it look like it will work I mapped 6004H to Position Actual value only. I am curious if a it possible to map Controlword & Statusword and execute MC_Home. /Best Regards -
Sick AFM60A as Encoder Axis in Sysmac studio (CIA 406)
Lipton replied to Lipton's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Thanks @Webbs. Did you get encoder to work as a Encoder Axis ? I mapped PDO 6030 for test and started the simulator and got this error . Removed the PDO and error goes away. With PDO 2017 it simulator starts without any errors :). Previous project we did like you are doing, we want to learn more about CIA 406 and the pros/cons of encoder axis /Best Regards. -

Lipton replied to Lipton's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
After some research online I guess that speed would be PDO 6030 -
Hi Scotty library project has version number that maybe can help you a little bit on the way same thing with IAG maybe it could be a way to read out library version with code and display in hmi I dont know
-
Hello Scotty. If you combine Sysmac with git and do your program in libraries & IAG' you can set your own verision number for each library you create or update, then you can track changes in the code and you can track your own developed libraries & IAG's /Best Regards

EthernetIP and Profinet on same network infrastructure
Lipton replied to Lipton's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
@photovoltaic thank you. Hi @panic mode there is a existing network infrastructure on this site and we need to add two new cpu on this network( NX we don't do siemens), to get remote access we will use port 2 on NX102 connected to this huge profinet network also communicate with PC application with FINS on port 2 /Best Regards -
EthernetIP and Profinet on same network infrastructure
Lipton posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Hello I have a question regarding a network infrastructure I hope someone has experience with this My self has very litte knowledge about Profinet. So there is this site that are running a huge Profinet network and we wonder if it possible to connect two new plc on the profinet network and communicate EthernetIP between the two new NX102 cpus ? Regarding profinet documention I havent found any limitation to do this, Profinet can coexist with all other ethernet based protocol ? /Best Regards -
Hello everybody. We have situation when trying to control a Lenze i950 drive from the Omron CPU NX102 using the CIA 402 CSP protocol with one motion axis configured on a 2ms task. On the drive is it a motor + resolver connected to lenze drive. EtherCAT communication is up and running and we are enable to run the motor with bad results. behaviors we see is wrong actual speed from drive, hard stopping in the drive, oscillation when the drive is standing still, overshooting the target. running better when send lower velocity to the drive. First the scaling is off at least regarding velocity, As we do the scaling in the omron cpu 65536/Work travel distance per motor rotation and I am 100% sure it is correct. First time I am in contact with this drive, is there any out here that has experience with this Lenze I950 drive and their software's and able to give any idea what can be wrong ? I have one feeling that there is some scaling being done inside the lenze drive aswell or wrong resolution somewhere. Have been in contact with the local lenze support without any progress /Best regards i950 BS-STO - TA CiA402_192_168_200_14_C01_TC2.gdc

SysmacStudio Team Development issue
Lipton replied to scotty134's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
I would suggest to revert to each merge and see when this issue occurs, When doing conflict solving it is important that is done locally within sysmac, Unfortunately It is not possible to resolve a conflict in the remote repo or similar. The merge will be ok but you will loose important meta data that sysmac itself is creating during conflict solving and merging. And when you will open the project after remote merge / conflict solving the chance is bigger that this issue will pop up during opening of the project. I know it sucks,I also want the be able to do remote merging and conflict solving in near future, but doing that now it will increase the chance to corrupted sysmac project. -
CI (Continuous integration) with Sysmac
Lipton replied to Lipton's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Hello @scotty134 we have bought the Team development feature from Omron it is very helpful to use git within large project and several developers. Almost a must have tool to have for manage software department. But we have several inhouse development libraries and we want to unittest them before we release the library to production code in the remote reop or some other solution like CI-toolchain. /Regards -
SysmacStudio Team Development issue
Lipton replied to scotty134's topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Hi @scotty134 are you doing merges in the remote repo like github,gitlab,bitbucket ? /Regards -
Hello. Iam wondering if anyone here has successful set up a CI-Server together with sysmac studio team foundation (git) ? We want to adopt unit testing workflow of the libraries like the picture. I see that some developers has been using jenkins to automate together with Beckhoff Or B&R and siemens it looks like they have their on solution. Or if anyone has some thoughts how it could be done with sysmac . /Best Regards

Cip safety / fsoe safety scanner compatibility with sysmac
Lipton posted a topic in NJ Series / Sysmac Studio
Hello. We are looking for a safety scanner that has CIP safety(Ethernet IP) or fSoE (Safety over etherCAT) that is combability with sysmac and NX102 cpu. There is a lot of safety scanners on the market that support CIP safety and fSoE and I have tried to load in both EDS and ESI files into sysmac with no succes. Of course the best option would be that OS32C safety scanner from Omron themselves would have build in support for Cip safety at the moment it only support ethernetIP to read out data for diagnostics. Is there anyone that is running a safety scanner with sysmac with CIP safety or fSoE ? If you do I would be very happy to receive the brand from the safety scanner manufacture. /Best regards. -

@photovoltaic Thank you very much for your feedback, It is much appreciated -
Hi. I have a decent workstation I work on when i do my programming. I have been using Sysmac studio for couple of years now and I have always notice it that sysmac studio is very slow. Have you guys notice that sysmac in general is slow ? /Best regards.

Yes I also want only one project all in one and gets the pros of integrated enironment. It is a very nice feature but when your automation projects get larger in will increase the openning time of project. /Regards.
