Ctrix drive and S7-1500 PLC

[Arch3r]

I'm setting up a new drive with an S7-1500 PLC over profinet but I'm missing something. I can run the motor fusing the drive engineering tool, I'm using the function block from the example project and everything looks to be working communication wise, I can enable the drive from the PLC but I cannot get the motor to Jog. Could anyone suggest what I might be missing?

Good afternoon

I do not know how the fb works, because in my case I use the one I have created, open and with the possibility of expanding with anything that is needed.

In your image appears the operation mode "Position Control Drive-Controlled"

However, to work with Profinet, at least in my example, you should use

"Drive Controlled Positioning" as you see in theattached image.

Surely by the images of the FB, since it has an entry of SecondOpMode, the option of the second mode should be modified in the configuration of the ctrlX Drive with the one used in my example. Or simply change the first one

As variants in my example

I have placed the S-0-0346 for the control of the various options, leaving the S-0-0145 for other things

I attach my manual and the open library in case you may be interested.

In my youtube channel it is explained how the control library was made in Profinet of an Indradrive (similar to ctrlX Drive) in case you are interested in seeing how it is internally.

I suppose that our colleagues will answer soon. But if you have any questions tell me, in what I can try to help
