Hi BobHow did you get on with your RA contact?Check out KB article 518884 which points to a cabinet temperature reaching more than 40deg C..

Bob, You might have already tried the following, but have you tried removing the axis module, control module and connector? Check the connectors for any build up (from the manufacturing process) We experienced an issue with the stability of the encoders .actual position.. End up replacing the axis module and control module to rule it out .. Problem solved.

Do you have a Panelview plus HMI? After configuring the password using the CPU security tool and the HMI does not re-establish a connection, then upgrade the firmware on the HMI.

Check out our robotic application: Two DENSO HSS Scara robots, with encoder tracking cards, comms over ethernet IP Allen Bradley Compactlogix L43 PLC Cognex Insight 5100 camera

Did you try re-installing the processors version 19.011 firmware over the top? I had a 1769-L32E with 1769-SDN, on random occasions the SDN would disappear and all the nodes from Linx giving you no other option to edit the network using RSNetworks. The only option was to re-flash the processor with the existing firmware and waalaa!

Does anyone have a spare copy of the PLC program for a Talamonti - Future Shoe sole glueing machine? PLC is CQM1-CPU43 (The battery has gone while the power has been off) Made in Italy approx 1997 (Last century...) Also has an F350 Vision system on board Any help would be much appreciated Thanks

I'm not sure on your Point IO rack layout but can you use a 1734-FPD instead? According to the selection guide Publication 1734-SG001D-EN-P - September 2010: pg 56 The 1734-FPD breaks the field power distribution at the left of the 1734-FPD from the field power distribution to the right of the 1734-FPD.

Nice tip there Janne.. What is the Rockwell Part No.? Where are your motors manufactured up in Europe? What sort of move profile are you doing indexing or is it only a speed profile?

Has anyone else got a third party like (Proface HMI) communicating to a B&R X20 PLC, via either Ethernet or Powerlink? I would like to know if this is possible? Thanks

Solved! Do not use any third party USB cables is the moral of the story , Restore Factory defaults to Drive and install the USB driver. You should now have under your Device Manager. HUSBD USB Device ---> Omron Inverter USB Driver Done

Hello, Such a small job can turn in to a major job in one day... I have the following WIndows XP CX Drive V2.4 configured for European mode (All drives) 2x MX2 drives 1x USB cable I cant communicate to either drive via any of my USB ports.. Once powering up the drives I installed a USB driver .. (Renesas USB1653) ??? ... Apparently according to the readme notes under C:\Program Files\OMRON\CX-One\CX-Drive\DRIVERS\3G3MX2 you are suppose to have a USB driver called "HUSBD USB Device" I have tried many methods of trying to delete the Renesas driver but have had no luck... Uninstalling via Device Manager, Deleting the .sys driver file etc.... Any ideas on how to delete the USB driver for good? Thanks again

I have found the solution to my problem after a little searching but what a pain in the A!! When downloading a project to a NS5 screen using Ethernet, i had to disable my wireless connection on my laptop to allow the transfer to complete... Are there any other options that i have missed? How can i be on my favourite forum website when i dont have an internet connection NS5 touch panel upgraded to version 8 firmware. CX-Designer 3.001

Hello out there. Has anyone communicated to a Yamato H series checkweigher via Ethernet IP with an 1756-ENBT? According to the Yamato documenation only TCP/IP is available. As i have other Ethernet/IP devices on my network i would like to simply add the Yamato in the I/O tree as a Generic Ethernet Module and then map the tags via UDT. I know this sounds a little easier than what it is, but hopefully it explains what i am trying to acheive... Cheers

Has anyone had a play with the new K300 EtherNet/IP Indexing Servo Drives? Would like to know any feedback..

What is the fault code displayed on the NCF card when this occurs? Any faults on the V1000's?

I think you require a custom Motor Catalog Number created to suit the third party motor you have. This would then provide all the relative data about the motor What type of motor is it? You could try emailing your motor details 3rdpartymotorrequest AT ra.rockwell DOT com

Thanks nguyenthanhcanh for the tip. I also applied Control Panel/Regional and Language Options/Language--> Select Details and added the Japanese Language. This setting creates a popup on the desktop so you can select between English/Japanese etc All the symbols were then converted to Japanese charactors It made it easy to view CXP in Japanese, but then have either Excel or the New coverted CXP file in English... Google translator then got a hiding converting Japanese text to English. Cheers

I have a .CXP file which has been created by an OEM in Japan. The Comments are not japanese font but some other ANSI, Unicode?? eg. ,WH'öŠš‚Ýž‚ÝŒŸo"¯Šú VC and ´°¼ÞÚ½"Š"üŽw—ß Any ideas on how to convert this code in to plain English? I have set under Control Panel/Regional and Language Options/Languages/Install files for East Asian Languages.. Any help would be much appreciated

I have used the W-series Omron servos on mechatrolink II, however CX Motion-NCF has the option to select an Unknown Drive within the NCF 71 config. Not to sure what data is required of the V1000 to import Have you checked out these manuals? http://www.yaskawa.com/site/dmdrive.nsf/(D...BPC73060049.pdf http://www.yaskawa.com/site/dmdrive.nsf/(D...EPC73060049.pdf Have you tried adding the drive to the Mechatrolink network? 1. Setting the unit number 2. Baud rate 3. Then go online to the NCF and upload from the card

Ahh... read the post to quickly

What version of CXP are you using? I have used CXP V8.2 to configure a CJ1W-NC271 in the IO Table and works fine... You may need to upgrade CXP using CX One upgrade utility

Hi all, I would like to know everyones preferences as to gearboxes that adapt to the AB MPL series servo motors. Both Inline and Right angle options with low backlash I have used in the past in a machine based environment - Shimpo Bonfiglioli Alpha (are recommended in Motion Analyzer) Your feedback will be much appreciated

Its been a few months since my original post. I have replaced the processor as per Rockwell tech supports advise in early march. Installed a CF card However i have had the same major fault occur in July where it just deletes the logix program and sets a Major Fault Type 1 Code 60. The only way to recover is to reset the major fault and reload the logix program that has all the old tag values... I had the same error occur in the workshop and now onsite I have sent the fault dump files and also the fault.bin files that are created on the CF card when this occurs to Tech support, they still waiting on a response from Engineering My next option when onsite next is to use the Task monitor tool to check out the status of each task?? Has anyone had similar issues with L43's? Major_Fault.bmp

I have an intermittent major fault occurring on my L43 processor Major Fault Type 1 Code 60 It is similar to BobLfoot's previous post, however the fault does not occur straight away.. Previous Post I don't have a CF installed All modules have been upgraded to the latest firmware to suit V16 I have sent a Fault Dump Utility file to RA Eng.. Now waiting for a reply.. Has anyone else struck this problem? Major_Fault_Small.bmp

I dont have one myself, i borrowed it at the time The part number your after is a 3G2C7–LK201–EV1, Good luck with trying to manufacture one.. Im sure there would be a few people out there who would purchase one if they we re-manufactured..
