My 4PP015 shows this message on the screen and its status LED is blinking red and green. I’m using AS 2.7 to try to communicate with it, but it doesn’t work. I’m using a simple RS232 cable with a converter
I’ve seen some messages in the community about how to establish communication, but maybe I’m forgetting something
Hi,
as I’m not sure what you’ve already found in the Community posts, could you please check the basic informations about wiring, port settings and so on in the following post?
Best regards!
Thank you very much for your help. I read some of your posts and some manuals, and I managed to do it — the operating system was missing. Now I have another problem: I’m working on a project with Acopos, but this file doesn’t transfer
Hi,
Unfortunately I’m not familiar with motion.
But this module is a very large one, and it could take very long to transfer it via the serial connection.
Is there any error shown in Automation Studio?
es, the file is large, but it hasn’t made any progress at all for about 40 minutes. One question I have is that I’m only connected to the Power Panel — the ACOPOS is disconnected. I’m not sure how much that would influence it.
Ah okay, 40 minutes are definitely too long.
I’m not really sure as the hardware and the Automation Studio version is really very old, but I think I can remember that the module you’re transferring is a ACOPOS operating system.
So it might be, that the transfer is only possible when the drive is connected and is powered with 24V. Maybe (could depend on project settings) that the PLC does not want to store the module, but wants to spool it directly to the ACOPOS (which would at least explain, why no error and no timeout comes up but just no progress is happening).
Best regards!
Hello,
The File is related to the ACOPOS but as far as i remember there was never a direct spool to the ACOPOS. A Transfer was always independent of the ACOPOS state.
I would more think about the Memory size. Can you try to move it to SystemROM and try to Transfer. Or first Delete complete memory.
This module is very huge.
Normaly i would have expected a memory error, but i don’t remember how these old systems have behaved.
Maybe we also have to think about the ACP10 version, did you used an Old one?
I expect that you have to use CAN with an AC110 to connect to the ACOPOS?
If this is the case you need a maximum Version of 2.x for ACP10

Yes, I’m going to use an AC110 to communicate with the ACOPOS 1090. I cleared the memory and switched to system ROM, but it still stays on the same screen. The ACOPOS is turned off.
Do I understand it properly that an empty project—only with configuration, automation runtime, and maybe one simple task with a counter—is possible to download, and then PP is in run?
I ran some tests with the Power Panel and it worked normally, but when I added the ACOPOS to start running some tests, it didn’t work. I believe it’s because the ACOPOS is missing on the CAN network. I even tried disabling it, and then the ‘error from NC manager’ started to occur
I would go step by step. So first, empty project, only PP. Download runtime and check that you are in RUN. Then you can add ACOPOS to the project, compile and again download. You can also try to stop PP before downloading.
Problem solved. to install this ACP10 SYS you need the ACOPOS connected to the network, and I was having an issue with the node switch for addressing. Thank you very much for everyone’s help here in the community
ok thanks for feedback 
now you are expert on PP15, ACOPOS and CAN
