Hi again
We're trying to replace two old Allen-Bradley servo drives with Rexroth HCS01.1E Ethernet/IP drives. We've purchased an SLC 5/05 processor to go in the existing SLC rack.
The processor is a 1747-L552 Ser B Rev 4 with 1747-OS501 Ser C Frn 6 - see the attached photo of the label.
We're currently testing on the bench, trying to get the processor and drives talking. I've entered four EEM instructions one for send and one for receive on each drive. When I try to verify the project offline I get errors for each of the EEM instructions "EEM instruction is not valid on the currently selected processor!-> 1747-552B/C 5/05 CPU - 32K Mem. OS501 Series C FRN 3-9". Also the EEM instruction is displayed with a '?' in the Control Block Length field and it isn't editable - I thought that this should auto-populate with the number 58?
A quick google tends to suggest that we need the processor to have a firmware revision level of 10. Can anyone confirm? Is it possible to upgrade the firmware to revision 10?
Also, can anyone point me to information on setting up the EEM instructions and what the Class, Instance & Attribute fields should be for the Rexroth HCS01.1E drives?
