Hello Uwe, the parameter file didn't work on my demo. I did change the communication from sercos to EtherCat and it always did allow to switch the drive to PM mode. now I got the motor repaired and I had all axes showed up correctly and referenced. there is one issue I haven't figured out that is two axes on the drive with core are in AB mode and two axes on XMD drive are in BB mode. it mentions S-0-0240.0.0 is for DC bus contrl, but it won't allow me to change. I haven't find a document on how to turn on the DC bus power for a XMD. is the S-240 has to be programed? I would like to think all axes should be able to be commissioned from the axes of webpage, but it doesn't work if a drive BB. can you please tell me how to turn the XMD into LB mode? here is how power is configured. here is DC bus status in drive with core here is DC bus status in XMD drive.   Thanks, ...

Thank you for the suggestion. I have a XCD and XMD connected on the network. the one motor not connected is on XMD. I could delete the the from IO configuration and transfer the configuration down to the core as you mentioned. then I assigned one axis with motion profile to the axes in motion. the status showed all in OP, but the LED on XMD was flashing red.    however when I tried to switch to the axes in ctrlX drive engineering after having all axes connected it showed an error message and didn't allow me to do anything with axes on XMD. the error message was "the connection to the indradrive could not be established", but the axes was scanned and downloaded to the core and EtherCat status showed all in OP. I don't know what else will cause this issue.         ... View more

Hello Uwe, it even didn't allow me to switch the drive to PM mode in th edrive engineering. the error message was showed as inconsistent settings.   then clicked on the error it showed the following details even when the motor was disconnected. looks like the ctrlX remembered whatever the last error status or if a motor without a temperature sensor the ctrlX drive will detect an error and won't be able to get into AB. I have tried to switch the motors between the drives since I have 4 motors, but it even made drives worst. the ones were showing ok before now it showed an error as well. I need to learn how to erase the application in ctrlX and start a project from fresh.  Thanks, ... View more

Thank you Uwe. the drives only have STO. I did follow your instruction, but it didn't show simulation mode active and the axis couldn't get into Safe_OP. another axis on the same drive was in AB. see the screen shots below. please advise if I have done anything wrong.     ... View more
