Macro Power Up - ModBus


Richard Naddaf

Recommended Posts

If the Macro ring is not up, any Macro communication commands can cause the USB/Ethernet processor to not detect the PMAC cpu. Furthermore, the ModBus (if configured) configuration will not be retrieved.

 

In general, regardless of ModBus status, do NOT send any Macro communication commands until the Macro ring is active, and faults are cleared.

 

Clearing Macro Station (at least 1st MACRO IC), and Ring Controller Macro faults in a start-up PLC (see example below) should alleviate this problem.

Note that this requires I80, I81, I82, MS{},I8, MS{},I9, and MS{},I10 to be set properly.

 

The Ring Active bit is in the Global Status word.
