Good morning all,
I wasted couple days trying to figure out the setup of a 1756-M02AE servo card to control two axes on a machine. I have a linear axis that I managed to set up to have good positioning, and rotating axes (for the other half of the M02AE) which I seem to be unable to get to move (rotate) properly Sometimes I get it to move couple degrees in any direction, but almost instantly the card faults out. I couldn't use the values set by the auto tuning procedure either. I read the documentation I've found about setting this up, but it didn't make me any smarter . I need to mention that I don't have too much experience with motion control, but setting up the linear axis was fairly easy.
Both axes have DSM-100 Centurion amps and servo motors. The CPU is a ControlLogix5555 rev 16.xx
I would appreciate any help to get me through the setup of the rotating axis.
Thanks guys!
