  1. Looking for some servo application help. Software: I have GX works 2, GT Designer, and GX Developer.  Hardware: PLC L06CPU-P, GOT2000 HMI, MR-J4-350B servo amps, HG-JR35JK motors, LD77MS2 Pulser I have (2) AC servos that will simply move an aluminum frame backwards and forwards using a FESTO belt mover and I have a servo gear reducer 20:1. I have a "simple motion module"and all of this hardware and software, plenty of time, and would really like to finish this project off. But this is my first servo and my first hmi project. I have some experience with Omron, Mitsubishi, and Allen-Bradley plc's, and consider myself novice at best. Any sample programs or help getting me started would be greatly appreciated!  
  2. Hi, I have encountered an unexpected "PRI" LED indication of 1756-RM Series B module. When the affected redundancy module is set to primary, the status of the "PRI" LED indicator is blinking red. On the other hand, it is set to a solid red when the RM is set as secondary. I have read the manual and there are only two expected behavior for the "PRI" LED indicator, green if it is set as the primary and off if it is secondary. Does someone encountered this scenario already?   P.S. The RM does not have any minor/major faults when accessed. The status indicator indicates "PRIM" when the affected module is set as primary and "SYNC" when set as secondary. Manual switchover between controllers are done and was successful. Thanks in advance! Regards, RIValencia
  3. I'm trying to ramp up from zero to enable a NJ calculated random curve to never produce a negative position point:                                                     Calling the move "Offset", and using a MC_MoveAbsolute fb, the idea is to trigger the curve generating ST to start when the move reached 50mm.  (Wanted the variable "Ready" to go TRUE at the end of the ramp to 50mm)  .. Then, MC_SyncMoveAbsolute fb would continue from there, sending streaming position data to the LinMot Linear motor. As seen above. But, there's a problem.  Initially, I used the MCMoveAbsolute.Done to start the ST curve move sequence, which also ramps amplitude from zero, over a period of 3 seconds: Offset + [(a number that goes from 0 to 1.0 in 3 seconds) * (the mathematically generated position curve)]   The result is a "clunk" at the transition of the end of the ramp and the start of the curve. Not sure when "Done" happens... started to think perhaps it's when the fb is finished making the command to move, and not when the move has actually finished. So I tried an IF_THAN:                    That was kinda silly, because the ramp final position never reached 50mm ... "Ready" never set to TRUE ...  close, but no cigar. So the next step was use a Round instruction that actually monitors the position of the slider: and a EQ instruction that compares the two, and issues a "Ready" command to start curve the curve program:                  This produced the Minor Fault:  Axis 0x543B0000 Motion Control Instruction Re-Exicution Disabled Now I'm thinking this can't work because "Ready" will only be TRUE when the the curve hits 50mm (which is quite often, after it starts running ... 50mm being the new zero) However, It did start the curve sequence.. but nothing moved because of the fault... Soooo.. The question is: How can I do a smooth transition from the end of an Offset move to the start of the curve?  Or.. better still...How is an "Offset" normally done to any curve generating routine? Thanks much, Regards, Michael PS:   Here's a look at what's happening when I tried using State Tracker... and something to compare actual position at the end of the Offset move, and the start of the random sea curve: https://www.youtube.com/embed/BdpvC1yyKxU?rel=0&controls=0&showinfo=0      RSStart is the variable that powers the Random Sea ST program, and the SyncMoveAbsolute fb that drives the motor.  Cycle time is 1ms.  Probably would be quieter if I could 500us .. but the NJ is only a 101-1000               FYI... Delta Motion's RMC75E Motion Controller can make the Random Sea using LinMot's B1100-VF drive .. as quiet as a mouse.  But then, I think that controller has a cycle time of 1us!   Wondering if there's a problem with Direction or BufferMode:    _emc_Direction#_mcNoDirection or _eMC_Buffer_Mode#_mcAborting ????  Thanks for any ideas on the "Clunk" ... I may have to live with the "singing" ... sniff!  .... or use a Delta Motion Motion Controller ..

  6. Ethernet Global Data Comms Fault

    Chris Iwo posted a topic in GE

    Hi All, We have a 4X Rx3i PLCs that use Ethernet Global Data (EGD) to talk to each other. At the moment we a facing EDG communication fault being generated and it trips the entire pumps What the likely causes of EDG faults: We have replaced PLC Ethernet Interface Modules-no fix We have tested the fiber optic cable-the readings show its OK Also,can someone explain what PLC heartbeat is?

  8. Need a little help here - I am trying to re-purpose some old hardware.  I have 2 old SLC5/04 B processors (+15 yrs?), that are giving me the same problem.  After a power cycle, they boot to a solid fault light - no comms.  Cycling the keyswitch has no effect.  Popping the processor from the rack and reseating it, powers up in a default state - it will not reload automatically from the EEPROM (when I establish comms, I can reload from the EEPROM or download the program from RSLogix).  I can't read the processor fault.  The battery is good.  The rack was scavenged, I have no idea its history.  Also in the 4-slot rack are DI, DO and RIO Scanner cards. I would consider my self a competent programmer, but no A-B expert.  Any ideas here would be appreciated.
  9. Im having some trouble with a PLC and looking for a some help. Whats happening is output number 3 is stuck on. I thought maybe it was just the PLC. I pulled the program tried it on a new PLC with no luck. I checked for faults and the handheld shows no major faults. The output that is stuck on is for a door, its telling it that the door is open. Any help would be great.
  10. Hi! I have my 1756 IF8 wired in high speed differential mode but i can't configure the RTS smaller than 11 ms. What I understand it should be possible to set as low as 5 ms if module filter setting is 1000 Hz. Is there anything else that i have to do?
  11. I have a micrologix 1200 series module which goes on fault mode after providing it in run mode and it shows an error of 81h whenever i clear the fault nd go to run mode i get faulted again. Please help guys  
  12. Hi 1- How can I identify a disable x20 module (in physical view) cyclically ? I am looking for a funation block who can do that because I want to use the 'Module Ok' status of x20 module to check if their presence. Problem is 'module Ok' status is the same for module missing or disable. 2- Could I disable a module using fonction block? (FYI I already know the right click in physical view). Thanks  

  13. module diagnostic

  15. I hope to be able to provide more information, but for now this is what I have. I have a SLC5/05 that faults whenever a graphic display is pulled up from a Cimplicity HMI. So, the PLC is not faulted while all harnesses are connected to the I/O modules, and while the Ethernet cable is plugged in, but it appears to fault when a corresponding graphic is called up that includes tags from the particular processor. There are two PLCs on the network, and I am not certain if they share data between each other or not, or if the data is just being shared to a common Cimplicity HMI. Another strange thing is that one of the PLCs on the network is using a MSG instruction to pull data from what appears to be the PLC that continues to fault, but the IP address configured in the MSG instruction does not match.
  16. Hi, I have a ControlLogix L63 processor. We had a power outage the other day and the PLC went into Major Fault (Type 6, Code1). It is quite easy to find out what these mean (from vendor manual). However the major fault was reset before i looked at it, so i couldnt find any specific details on what routine faulted. There is GSV instruction in the fault handler to get the details of the Major Fault (MAJORFAULTRECORD). This recorded the TimeHigh, TimeLow, Code, Type and Info. I am now trying to determine what the date in the ".info" records mean (8 registers). I cant find this in any manual. Can someone help?

  19. Reading position data from GOT

    quoroy posted a topic in Mitsubishi

      In this first picture is a numerical input with a monitor device D2058. In the whole GOT project this is the only device that saves the information inputed.   Then on que PLC sequence theres an instruction moving that device's value gotten from the GOT to the position module's buffer memory. My doubt comes when there's another device D10022Z9 getting the same value of D2058. In this case the Z9 index is always 0, I checked. In the whole PLC program this is the only part where the D10022Z9 appears, there is no instruction anywhere copying D2058 to D10022Z9 which is how I would think is the way it has the same data always. Am I missing something or how is this possible?

  21. Hi all, Quick question about adding ENET modules to a plc. If I have a local network of a HMI, PLC and 1 device all on IP 192.168.255.x and I have another device across the plant with an address of 171.27.19.x, can I add that one device to the PLC and it will recognize it? Is there a way to add a device with a totally different IP address to a PLC that is already set up?

    Hi All, I have problem about programming serial module Mitsubishi PLC using QJ71C24N. If I unconnect the cable from the module and connect again it show SIO error and the communication become lost or not sending data again. so i have to restart the PLC to make it normal again. Any other solution for solve this error without restart the PLC? Thanks Husanto
  24. Hey guys. New to the forum and new to plcs. I am running into problems quick, fast and in a hurry. Please be patient. I have created a new project. I have added module 1756 ENBT because that is what I will be connected to. On the chassis there is another ether net card which runs to a switch. That switch runs to a 1734 aent card. I have added this module, 1734 aent, as well to my project. Now I must add a 1734 IB8S and a 1734 OB8S. These are not appearing in my list. I proceeded to download and install these add on profiles. After installation, however, I can still not select the I/O modules. Why is that? And how do I fix it? Thanks in advance, HotPie

  25. Graph, acknowledge supervision fault

    N.Lindstrom posted a topic in Siemens

    Hi im quite new to Siemens programing. I got a issue that iwe been stuck with for a while now when im programing in Graph. When a supervision_fault happens the sequence is locked until I press ACK_EF and the transition is fullfilled. Then the sequence continues right on. What I want is that if ACK_EF is pressed the supervision fault will be cleared and the sequence remains paused until I press "Startbutton" again. I´ve tried Halt_SQ when the FAULT is triggered but I cant seem to get the FAULT down when I ACK. Also tried to switching it over to manual then ACK the fault. But that didnt work for me either. Hope there is someone that could help me with this :) It would be much appreciated!
