A host application that sends the trajectory as PVT points to a Technosoft drive has to implement the following steps: create the callback function that will handle messages with PVT status sent automatically by the drive. The drive will send the PVT status when the buffer is full, low or empty. register the callback function [...]
Technosoft drives are able to automatically sent the status to a host device when one or more conditions are met. The steps required to enable this feature from TML_lib Motion libraries are: Set the address of the master and the conditions that trigger the messages transmission. This is done with TS_SendDataToHost function. Register the callback [...]
The channel name parameter depends on the interface that is used to communicate with the drive. Below are presented the constant values according to the supported communication interfaces: The following constants are declared in TML_LIB.h: - public const Byte CHANNEL_RS232 = 0; - public const Byte CHANNEL_RS485 = 1; - public const Byte CHANNEL_IXXAT_CAN = 2; - [...]
The setup data can be downloaded trough the TML_lib using the TS_DownloadSwFile function. Follow the next steps to download the software file: 1. Generate the software file with the setup data from EasyMotion Studio, with the Application | Create EEPROM Programmer File | Setup Only... menu command. If EasySetUp was used to commission the drive then the [...]
The user can create a software file (with extension .sw) which contains all the data to write into the non-volatile memory of the drive using the EasyMotion Studio or Easy SetUp software. The software file includes both the setup data and the motion program. The software files generated by EasySetUp include only the setup data. The .sw file can be downloaded in drive non-volatile memory with [...]

In order to stop the unrequested messages sent by the drive to the host when in PVT mode, the user need to set the PVTSENDOFF variable to 1. Add the line "PVTSENDOFF = 1;" at the beginning of his program and the drive will no longer send the PVTSTS to the host.
The current, speed or position controllers parameters can be changed online through the following parameters: 1. Current controller The proportional gain components Address KPI 0x0271 SFTKPI 0x0272 The formula used to compute the Kp parameter is: Kp = KPI / 32767 * 2^SFTKPI where: KPI = 0 .... 32767 SFTKPI = 0 ... 14 The integral [...]
The PVT buffer is stored in the RAM memory of the drive. Apart from storing the PVT points, the RAM memory contains also the data acquired with the Logger and the CAM tables. The amount of memory available and the addresses of various memory sections depend on the drive and can be visualized in Memory [...]
The iMOT intelligent motors use a magnetic encoder that outputs quadrature signals but additionally, it can also output the motor absolute position, on one mechanical turn. The absolute position is saved in the controller RAM memory, at the address 0x222 and goes from 0 to 4096. To read it, the following TML code sequence can [...]
