Hello, In ACP10, completely changing the axis settings was easy by switching between the defined “.apt” and “.ax” tables. In mappMotion, the axis data are stored in files such as “.purevaxcfg” (I have a virtual axis), “.axis”, and “.limitset” (if used). These can be changed using the function bloc…

Hello, Sometimes we are blind to the obvious issues… i could reproduce it, because there was an issue in the Application. Since some time went by, i am not sure if i configured the PureVAx-Configuration on my self or i did use a imported Configuration. The issue found was that the Variable “::Acp[…

Hello, @valerio.manenti just as a hint, Reconfiguration is not part of TM415. You do not find any note about ProcessParam or ProcessConfig. So for the others TM416, 417. :frowning: @Michal_Malek The Mapp-Configuration Files can be seen as Files on the CF-Card. So it is typicaly irrelevant how m…

Respect Michael, no words! Thanks so much for your comment!

Hi Michael, Thank you for the comprehensive explanation. To be precise, I have one drive and three motors with quite different configurations. Switching between them must be performed within one second. My intention is to keep all three configurations within a single package, where they can be eas…

Hello, <To be precise, I have one drive and three motors with quite different configurations. Switching between them must be performed within one second.> So you have an electeo-mechanical switch which changes UVW from first Motor to UVW of second Motor, … And Encoder aswell? If you want to chan…

Hello, If you only want to debug the differences between AS4 and AS6 you have to use the Logger and DriveLog to see if there are some hints. Basicaly the MappMotion Sytem has not changed between AS4 and AS6 in its Concept. There were only some little tweeks or new Functions. Maybe there has been …

Once again, thank you, Michael, for clarifying. It seems that I must completely change my approach and move away from ACP10 “passive file thinking.” This solution is not intended for a single project, so it needs to be as general as possible. Therefore, virtually all parameters from the mentioned …

Hello, The ACOPOS Firmware is mostly the same for ACP10 and MappMotion. The main differences are on the PLC side API. It is true that MC_BR_ProcessParam is realy limited. Because most Machines does not need this amount of flexibility. In regards to changing the Parameters on an ACOPOS without a r…

Hi Michael, In ACP10, SDC was used, and Pure Virtual Axis appears to be its successor and seem to be fully operational. Therefore, there is no legacy approach in place (SDC is not available in mappMotion). Ultimately, it does not matter how the data are managed (although a simpler approach is pref…

Hello, Yes the PureVirtual Axis with enabled General Axis Purpose Interface is the successor of SDC, but not fully compatible in its function Set. And in difference to the SDC the PureVirtualAxis does not have ParIDs to get a deep access. For a PureVirtual Axis you have to reley on MC_BR_ProcessP…

Hello, Are your 3 Motors connected to a Pure Virtual Axis or to an real ACOPOS? I think i still do not oversee your requirement in full. Because if it is connected to a Pure Virtual Axis why do you switch at all, why not enable 3 Pure Virtual Axis? Greetings Michael

Hello,

Issue was reported to B&R by German CASE-71593. I will provide updates. If you like to get informed directly, you can refer to you local support to create a local case, using the german one as Reference.

Greetings
Michael
