Danaher Motion 06/2005 Overview 1. OVERVIEW ® This manual describes how to use the SERVOSTAR MC (Multi-axis Controller) product. To execute the examples described in this manual, you must at least have a SERVOSTAR MC and BASIC Moves Development ® Studio installed on your host computer. Some examples further require that you have a drive installed and connected to the MC using the SERCOS TM ® Interface cables. The SERVOSTAR MC Installation Manual describes the procedures for all the neces

Overview 06/2005 Danaher Motion 1. 1 SYSTEM HARDWARE The MC hardware is available in two types of implementation: a plug-in circuit board for a host computer, and a stand-alone model. The PCI plug-in board hardware installs in a host computer (typically a PC), running the Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000/XP operating systems. The MC contains a fully-independent computer system., so it does not compete with the host processor system for resources. The MC uses Pentium 233 MHz or faster micropr

Danaher Motion 06/2005 Overview Camming links master and slave axes by a cam table. Camming has all the features of gearing, plus the cam table can have any number of points. The cam points are in x-y format so spacing can be provided independently. Multiple tables can be linked together, allowing you to build complex cam profiles from simpler tables. There is a cycle counter that lets you specify how many cycles to run a cam before ending. The MC supports multi-tasking with up to 256 tas

Overview 06/2005 Danaher Motion Because SERCOS is digital, it can transmit signals such as velocity and ® position commands with high resolution. The SERVOSTAR MC and accompanying drives ( SERVOSTAR CD series), support 32-bit velocity commands. This provides a much higher resolution than can be achieved with the analog interface. The most common SERCOS functions are provided in such a way that you do not have to be an expert to gain the benefits. 1. 6 API ® DanaherMotion's Kollmorgen AP

Danaher Motion 06/2005 Overview 1.8.1. Serial Communication The MC has two RS-232 ports, which can be used for user communication. When COM1 is used for communication with BASIC Moves over API, tasks cannot access it to eliminate interference with BMDS communications. Use DIPswitch bit #8 to configure this port: DIP Switch bit #8 state ON (default) COM1 is reserved for communication with the host and cannot be used by any other application OFF COM1 is available for user communication W

Overview 06/2005 Danaher Motion 1.8.1.2. OPEN SERIAL PORT Configurate the serial port with OPEN. Set the following port properties: BaudRate - baud rate of the device set to a specified value. Parity – enable/disable parity detection. When enabled, parity is odd or even. DataBits - number of data bits. StopBit - number of stop bits. Xonoff – sets raw mode or ^S/^Q flow control protocol mode (optional parameter disabled by default). For example: OPEN COM2 BUADRATE=9600 PARITY=0 DATABIT

Danaher Motion 06/2005 Overview There are several ways to set the IP address of the controller. By default, the MC boots without a valid IP address. The following options are available to set the IP address of the controller: Static IP address setting Use SYS.IPADDRESSMASK in the Config.prg file to assign the IP address and Subnet mask: SYS.IPADDRESSMASK=”212.25.84.109:255.255.255.128” Dynamic address setting by Windows API API assigns an IP address to the MC when it establishes TCP co

Overview 06/2005 Danaher Motion The MC requests a connection from a remote host, according to a specific IP address and port. CONNECT blocks task execution until the connection is established or until the command fails. To unblock a task waiting in CONNECT, close the corresponding socket using CLOSE. In addition, killing a task (KILLTASK) blocked by CONNECT closes the socket to release the task. CONNECT may fail due to the following reasons: 1. Invalid socket descriptor 2. Remote host ha

Danaher Motion 06/2005 Overview If INPUT$ requests reading a data length larger than available data, the command returns only the available data: -->?LOC(1) 11 -->STRING_VAR = INPUT$(20, #1) -->?STRING_VAR Hello World LOC can be used within the INPUT$: STRING_VAR = INPUT$(LOC(1), #1) A partial read of the input buffer is allowed. This way, several calls to INPUT$ empty the input-buffer: -->?LOC(1) 11 -->STRING_VAR = INPUT$(3, #1) -->?STRING_VAR Hel -->?LOC(1) 8 -->STRING_VAR =
