tweekzilla Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 I'm having a couple of issues at the moment trying to setup a step and direction motor in the IDE. The amplifier has the step and Direction command clicked. There are, however, no options available under the Hardware Interface section (I have two Acc24E3 and I'm trying to use the sinusoidal encoder to output the signals) . If I manually set the pointer: Motor[1].pDac to Gate[1].Chan[3].Pfm.a the system setup crashes the whole IDE when the hardware interface section is clicked.

Omron Forums Support Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 tweekzilla, Are you sure that your ACC-24E3s (and all other cards in the rack, for that matter) have distinct base addresses? That is, their addressing SW settings are set distinctly? Check your cards' manuals for instructions on setting the addresses. Also, what version of the IDE and the firmware are you using?

tweekzilla Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 I'm using version 1.4.0.62 of the PMAC IDE and Firmware 1.4.0.27 I can address each of the cards without a problem from the command line but I'll recheck the base addresses tweekzilla, Are you sure that your ACC-24E3s (and all other cards in the rack, for that matter) have distinct base addresses?
