Hey guys,
I recently had to change out an old eaton drive from our WWTP with a newer DG1 Eaton drive. I had to install a DXG-Net-Device net option card onto the drive. I have set a MAC ID Address on the Drive (16) and chosen the POLL type assembly 21/71 for I/O parameters. These I/O parameters match up with the old Drives I/O parameters .
I have set up the device using RSNetworkx and have downloaded the DG1 drive EDS file from eaton.com to the drive and can successfully see the device net card on RSNetworx and the EDS file under properties.
My issue is I cannot get the PLC to talk with the drive, no command what so ever. My guess is that the RSLogix 5000 programming for the old drive does not match or isn't addressed correctly to talk to the new drive. The Motor is P110 influent pump which uses "LocalS4_N50_POL_O.Data[0]" for output commands and "LocalS4_N50_POL_I.Data[0]" for inputs from the drive. I need to get this Drive talking with the PLC so the operators can use it in Auto with their HMI station.
I'll attach a copy of the PLC program with some screen shots. If anyone has experience with DeviceNet and commissioning drives with them I would be very appreciative for some help.
