Hi Christoph, I have correctly moved the operating modes in the same order as suggested by you but I get always the same error.    this is teh status of the IndraWorks page when I try to use the absolute motion function from my linux code, as you see the active operating mode switch corretly to drive-controlling position, but the command value stay to zero without triggering the position change commanded from the code, and on the terminal I get this error from the library:  Note: I used also the ealApiInitializeDefault from the code, but the result is the same. best, Andrea   ...

Hi,  the configuration is done with the position command value linking, I have attached the .par file as you request. About the power on the slave: from the code point o view, I will communicate only with the master axis, so the connection, the power on and the position command are always with the handle of the master one, I didn't send any command to the slave. Once I turn on the power with the command ealMotionMovementPower(&handleOfMaster, 0, true) automatically also the status of the slave switch from AB to AF, I guess this is due to the setup that we have done, with the SERCOS profile, in which the power enable command is also sent to the slave.   The point is that I'm able to obtain a working status with both the actuator in AF status and aligned to the same position, but when I try to use the ealMotionMovementMoveAbsoulte(&handleOfMaster, 0, desired position, velocity, acceleration, deceleration, jerk) the function return an error (General error during function call) and the actuator does not move. But if the code is still running, so the actuators constinue to stay in AF status, if I control them from another laptop (windows) using the IndraWorks Ds applicattion, I'm able to trigger a movement simply going to the position command page, set a new position value and triggering it with the apply botton, in this way the command works and the actuators move in synchro (see the other picture that I have attached). So I guess that something is missing in the C++ code, in the function call or in the setup of the connection with the master axis... best,  Andrea Bonetti ... View more
