    UPDATE.....

    Just thought I’d let you know I got it to work…..  I remembered an issue we had trying to install CX-One software a long time ago and went looking for notes on what we had to do.

     

    I found a ‘work around’ for a ‘CXServer_Installation_Operation_Failed’ issue….  One option was to use RegEdit and change an entry called EnableInstallerDetection from a 0 to a 1.  Since the Auto Updater was trying to Update/Install CX-One Software first….I gave it a try….

     

    My software is now up to date.

    Has anyone had issues using the Auto-Updater and Administrative Rights?  I am running Windows 10 Pro, 64Bit.  I need to update Sysmac Studio from 1.31 to 1.4.....when I run Auto Updater (as Administrator) I always get the error "Log on the PC as a user who has an administrative right when install" and it never makes it past the first module of the CX-One Update.  I even gave the issue over to my IT guy and he has absolute full rights to every nook and cranny on my laptop.

    I was told that I needed to allow the CX-One to updates as well since they share some of the same components.

    My IT guy even tried to do the "download" and install individual modules of the update and that still didn't work.

    Currently waiting on callback from OMRON Tech Support, thought I'd pose the question here as well....thanks.

    I would agree with that.  Both drives moved so smoothly I did not feel the need to do an auto-tune.  But as long as this works with "stop to command position" I will leave it.  They "should" never get into that situation anyway.....but they will I am sure :)

    Thanks again for the help.....

    Michael,  AMI,

    It all boiled down to what AMI suggested, "Deceleration stop for command position" in the MC Axis Setup parameters...…..  I don't know why.....  I wish I had an explanation…..  The Omron Tech I spoke with on the phone early on and even Michael....both said that they were able to reset the fault and JOG the opposite direction with BOTH "Decelerate for COMMAND & ACTUAL position".....where I cannot.....

    At least it works now, machine is shipping tomorrow...

    Thanks for helping out with all the suggestions...

    Michael,

    download went faster than I thought.....Indeed I do not have the actual MC_Reset block....  I have ResetMCError instead....  I used a previous engineer's program and me not knowing enough about the Sysmac Servo programming, I thought this was the appropriate Reset block.

    I found the MC_Reset block and I will use it when I get back on my machine tomorrow morning.

    Thanks,

    Michael,

    Thanks....I did not get access to my machine as I was told ( I will tomorrow morning).  My laptop is wrapped up in software download for another project so I don't want to open my Sysmac Studio until it is done.  I am pretty sure the MC_Reset is in the Diagnostis section of the program...I will look as soon as I can.

    So with your test there is no conclusion as to why my JOG function, in reverse, just immediately brings the fault back?

    Thanks,

    Michael,

    I have just now gotten home.  Work is shortening our hours and I will be working from home on a new design here in a few days.  I can answer questions if you have any....I should have grabbed my laptop and brought it home.

    I get into work at 5:45am EST

    Thanks again for your willingness to help

    Try that one, maybe I did it wrong the first time....

     

    McCartney,

    When it comes to Logix...there is an AOI for Jogging back off the Hard OT's.  You have to disable the OT settings and then JOG to clear the OT, then reset the OT settings...

    The Omron Tech I spoke with was able to JOG off the Hardware & Software OT in the opposite direction with no issue.  I have JOGged off the Hardware OT with the same logic that I am trying to JOG off the Software OT...just not sure why it is not working.  So Omron has the means for the "JOG the Opposite direction".  My ignorance of Sysmac Studio has bitten me again....

    Anyone at all seen this before?  I have been told by an Omron Tech who tried it himself that I should be able to Jog in the opposite direction from the Software Limit Fault....after the fault has been reset.  I can do that very thing with the Hardware OT, just not the Software OT.  Using the same logic I use for the Hardware OT, the Software OT Fault immediately returns when I press the Jog Opposite direction PB...

    I know it will be something stupid I have done...I just don't know where else to look.....

    Well I used to know Turbo Pascal, BASIC, C+ & Fortran as well.....that was a long time ago.  I can do what I can do in RSLogix but not so good with OMRON, that is why I rely on the good people of Mr.PLC….this is my first program in Sysmac and the job is getting ready to ship.  I should be able to reverse jog out of the Software Limit just as I can with the Hard Limit....but the error keeps returning immediately as I execute the Jog....

    I have been able to Jog the opposite direction from a Hardware OT with my 1S servos (using Sysmac Studio).  I reset the OT Fault and Job the opposite direction.

    What I am having trouble with now is, I have set Software Limits and I cannot Jog off like I can with the Hardware OT.  I have been told I should be able to do that, but it still does not work.  The fault returns immediately when I press the appropriate HMI Job button....which is the same HMI buttons and Logic used when I have the Hardware OT.

    Has anyone ran into this before?  It may be a setting I have not done right maybe??

    Thanks,
