Hello,
I have a problem with Kinetix 300. One, small machine (cake cutter) has two Kinetix 300 drives to spin the cakes (one drive - one cake) when it gets cut. When the cycle starts and both drives receive/get 24V to "enable input signal" (29) one drive starts and runs as it should but the other goes off in a split second. I mean I can see that little "drive enable dot" on the little HMI come on for a split second and than it goes off. Drive stays disable even though terminal 29 never lose voltage. I checked faults in MotionView and there is nothing. No faults.
However, after troubleshooting for some time I found out that it's the Ethernet cable connected to RJ45 port that causes all this. When I unplug the cable the drive stays enable for as long as input 29 has 24V.
Just to be clear, there aren't any instructions, zero, nothing written for that drive in the program, so there is no way anything can keep the drive in disable state. I removed that module from the program and drive stays on even with Ethernet cable connected. When I add the module/drive to the program and connect the cable same thing. Drive goes off after split second.
Is it bad drive? Should I replace it or some of the parameters could cause this?
Thanks
