Hi All.
I am just a maintenance man who is trying his hand at learning things...All sorts of interesting things!
I take care of a few machines which have two/three axis motion control using Stepper Motors and Siemens S7 200 plcs.
Things are proceeding well and I have been able to learn a fair bit from the Siemens system.
During my last trip to the States, I did pick-up an AD DL 06 (Basic PLC/DC/Sourcing out) and a Click PLC to play around in my spare time.
Attached is a photo of my test Rig!
Now, the Question.
The S7200 does a great job of running the driver using sourcing PTO from Q0.0 and 0.1.
Settings are Velocity 1000 pps/Start Vel 1000 pps/Stop vel 100/Total pulse count 400
I am now trying to learn to get a similar move from the DL 06 and failing miserably.
I got the DL06 wired up as per the book - Y0 does the Pulses and since I am OK without any direction control at the moment, Y1 is free.
Attached are a couple of snap shots of the DSoft screen.
When I close X3 physically, I get a slight 'jitter' from the motor and no more. Every time I toggle X3, I get the same result. After a while, SP104 comes ON and so does Y2 - From that point on, I cannot get anything.
Please help!
