Hi guys,
im trying to read and write to a VFD from a Twido PLC thru ModbusTCP.
TWIDO twdlca-e40drf
VFD Cuttler-Hammer SVX9000x
I want to read registers 42101 (status control word) and 42103 (Frequency Reference)
And also write to 42001 and 42003.
I'm trying with the comm macros in Twidosuite v2.2. I set my read macro to poll "C_RDNW_1_2 := 2000"
I've subbed #2000 for 2001 also. being that twidosuite talks in %MW's which start at 0 but the drive talks in 4xxxx which start at 1 for addressing. Ive also tried 16#835 for a hex version of the address but nothing is coming up in my animation tables.
I also have a Magelis HMI which I'm able to either address in 4xxxx or in %MW. With the HMI TCP driver set in 4xxxx, I'm able to write and read registers in the VFD.
On the VFD side I have the remote control and Frequency Reference set to FieldBus.
Does anyone have experience in talking to these two types of devices?
If I cant write directly I will have to go through the HMI to convert but I would really like to be able to access the VFD directly from the Twido Plc.
Thanks
Jeremi
