Hello!
For my BSc in automation I am attempting to communicate with Lenze Servo Positioning inverters (e.g EVS9329-EP) for motion control. I am using a Beckhoff PLC with EL6751 CANOpen and Twincat 3.
In Twincat 3, under devices, I have created CANOpen nodes and loaded EDS-files. My questions are as follows:
Since the 9300 inverters are using Lenze System Bus CAN, PDO mapping does not seem possible. How can I send and receive data from the inverter and know what kind of data I am looking at?
When creating new axis under NC-task I can choose between encoder axis, continuous axis and discrete axis. What are the differences between them?
Any help, or clues to where I can find out more would be greatly appreciated!
