I have node-red app installed and licensed in a CtrlX core. it works. however when I tried to load a new node of "node-red-contrib-ui-led" I got an error of failed to install that node. then I viewed the log file into the details and got this message see the attached log file. it looked like internet connection or setup issue.   here is what and how I have tried to make it work. 1. used it in the office. I have been using a company issued laptop and had the ctrlX(192.168.1.1) connected to the internet port(192.168.1.100) of the laptop and used wifi to get internet connection.it didn't work. then I set up a port forwarding for WIFI to use the fixed same IP address of WIFI(a different IP addess range). it did not work as well. 2. based on some suggestions from google I set the NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED environment variable to '0'. it still didn't work. 3. I tried to do the same at home and got the same error. then I set the IP addessed of CtrlX core and laptop to the same range of internet WIFI router at home and had two devides connected to the router directly. also switched off the VPN and turned on DHCP for the ipv4 of eth0. it didn't work.    is the laptop setting blocking the registry website? what would be the best way to set the system and get a node downloaded? please let me know if there is a way to get it worked in the office since in the future we will mostlikely to support a customer from the office.   Thanks,  ...

I am setting up a 4 axes demo with a XCD and a XMD. I did follow the document of Suitable Power ON/OFF ctrlX Drive and the parameters listed in the document are outdated for ctrlX WORKS WRK-V-0112.7.  I figured out the parameters for XCD after having tried and errored. here is what I found for XCD.   however when I worked on the slave side(XMD) the manual shows using bit 0 of S240, but it doesn't work. I checked the parameters from the pull-down list and non of the similar ones worked. S240 showed 1 in the bit0. I can get the XCD into AB through a power on/off switch, but not XMD. here is the error message I got when I switched the drive from PM to OM.    please advise the correct parameter for DC power control word on the slaves, or if I have missed some settings somewhere else. or tell me what is a correct way to switch the slave into AB using digital I/O to power on the slave drives.   Thanks,    ...
