First thing I would is reach out to your local Rockwell distributor. They should be able to get you in touch with the right folks. About 8 or 9 years ago, we did a re-control of a machine that had an Anorad linear servo motor. Rockwell was able to come up with a motor file to let a Kinetix 6500 drive operate that motor. -
Hello, question like above "Kinetix 5700 or 5500 is posiible to use with 3rd party linear motor?" I need connect with linear motors https://unimotionusa.com/category/89381 With SinCos incremental feedback. If yes, where I find description "how to"? -
Here. this assumes your physical stop button is N/C type so it can be started/Stopped from the I/O or from the HMI -
I am looking to view FTBatch recipe and equipment status in the PLC to be used for data collection and process data monitoring. There has to be a way for the PLC to pull status tags from FTBatch correct? For example, I'd like the PLC to monitor whether a recipe is running or not on an asset / equipment and also be able to pull which recipe it is running. How hard is this? There ought to be an easy way to extract that kind of data from FTBatch into the PLC no? Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Thank you! -
You can't have both a physical output and an address in the AT column, it's one or the other. In your program, turn on 2 outputs, one for the physical and one to share with the NB. -
Let me start by acknowledging MrPLC's answer which has enlightened me. Thank you. I managed to get the output for external LED to light up, however on the NB HMI the output did not switches on . The remaining question now is how to get the LED on NB HMI to respond concurrently with the physical LED. What I've noticed is that the instant I assigned LED to I/O Bit 03, the Global Variable changed from %W100.00 to BuiltInIO://cpu/#0/Output_Bit_03. Any suggestion or tested solution will be greatly appreciated. -
Apologies for not being clear and offering details to assist my query. Anyway, I've decided to rephrase the question to a simply program that could offer definite answers. I've attached some screenshots of my simplified program. My intention is to link the physical I/O to the NB HMI and the PLC, just as it will be the case for a SCADA system. Simply put , the field activation of either input push buttons and the subsequent response of the LED should be reflected on both the PLC program and the NB HMI. I trust that any simplification of how this task accomplished will speedup my understanding of how HMIs work in OMRON.

This is parameter I set-up PR.71 = 3 Pr.80 = 1.5 PR.81= 4 PR.800 = 1 PR.803 = 1 PR.868 = 3 -
any one can help ? I try to set-up FR-A800 using torque control on terminal 1, how can input the additional speed in inverter using terminal 2 I put potiometer on terminal 2 but cannot work the speed but the terminal 1 torque cobtrol is working but I need to add the frequency speed. Thank you

Yeah, for sure no answer will be solid if you don't provide more info. How is the motor connected to the PLC? What are you trying to control? On/off, speed control? If you are trying to turn on a PLC output, make sure you put a variable on the appropriate output in the I/O Map screen and then turn on that output with your PLC program or HMI buttons.

Normally, you would not use the physical I/O to control the motor but use internal bits to control the motor output Like the attached, Cannot remember the memory map (internal bits/words) but the only physical I/O will be the output to drive the motor (assuming this is a simple direct on-line motor wired not communicating to a VFD. Use internal bits for buttons on HMI but you could use the physical output in the PLC & display its status using that bit. Your post is a liitle lacking information but below is a simple start stop logic using HMI buttons linked to internal bits as energise when pressed

IAGs are compiled code. To edit it, you would need the original Sysmac Studio IAG project. Without it, you'll need to create again.
