Hello, it could be helpful to have the diagnosis log. Can you please download and add here.
If possible you can add your configuration too.

In the log i couln't find a problem. So i think we should switch on the traces for the axisprofile.
After activating the trace you have to switch to SETUP and then to OPERATIONAL again.
I hope we than can see more in the log.
(Note: This kind of devices is not fully supported at the moment, this will come for RM2311)

Sorry, i can not see the traces. Did you activate traces for download?
I think you can use PLC Open, but only one axis will be supported in axis profile and no acyclic functions like homing.

Here is an entry in the log. I think you have to check your operation mode.
Name: Profile_1; Type: CoE; Addr: 1005; current drive operation mode: Unknown, which is not supported

After switching the operation mode of the ELMO drive to cyclic synchronous position mode, I can switch to running mode.
