ethercat and third party drives


zed

Recommended Posts

hello,

i was under the impression that the ecat module would allow control of third party drives using the built in motion code (MC_...) but it seems when I load the ESI file I have access to drive parameters with SDO read/write but no way to actually control it.  I can't seem to add the drive or its related axis to the hardware configuration or program motion logic for it.  I am missing something?  Does the built in motion code only work for unitronics servo drives and motors?

 

Thanks
