Hello, Yes, this issue has been addressed to development team. In the meantime, we could find a work around. Basically, after a while, Slave was going in "sleep mode". With some code, we keep it alive and avoid any communication failure (in my case, time-out): By the way, Ethernet/IP scanner 4.4.0.0 must not be used sinced it leads to EtherCAT issue!! My inputs on EtherCAT (from IO or EFC or CtrlX Drive stuck at value 0):   This is something also explained in another post:   ... View more

Hello, Our customer would appreciate this functionnality. This would be a nice feature to facilitate machine commissionings and its after sales team job once machines are on the field. Is there yet a schedule or an existing example to perform a parameter file transfer from Beckhoff (CNC or PLC) to CtrlX Drive? ... View more

Hello, I did a function MB_AxsPosAbs (see attachment), which extended the function ML_AxsPosAbs for the move direction of modulo axis. (shortest way, positive, negative, current direction) The function is done with the existing function of Motion library. Because Plc is running on Core 2 and Motion on Core 3, there is a risk that fucntion block works with "old" value and so the result is wrong. Restrictions of the function: It is important to know, that the dynamic value (deceleration, jerkdec) of the actual active command must be equal to the dynamic value of the function MB_AxsPosAbs, because internal the actual braking distance is used. Otherwise the function do not run in a proper way   ... View more
