Faulhaber 2657...CXR

Faulhaber 2657...CXR

I have a Customer who wants to use CtrlX CORE with his existing Hardware. This hardware consists of Beckhoff I/O Systems and a small card to run a Faulhaber small motor. Specifically THIS motor. 

Connecting the Beckhof I/O worked flawlessly, however the connection of the Motor did not work out, as THIS Beckhof drive card, does not communicate in command words, but single bits. Is there another way to connect this motor with an EtherCat drive card similar to the Beckhof one he is using or does the customer have to manually combine the bits back into command words to be able to use our motion app?

Thank you.

Hi Luschuerz,

we du not have yet ctrlX IO cards for small voltage- or stepper motors, they are planned for next year.

Also this card from Beckhoff cannot be connected to the Motion App, you have to control it from the PLC.

To make live easier you could map a Word to the Bits, like:

myControlWord : AT %QW0 : WORD;
myStatusWord : AT %IW0 : WORD;
