I have a spin welding machine utilizing a Yaskawa Sigma II motor, with an MP940 controller. I am attempting to change the weld characteristics from a discrete "move" profile to a Constant torque move. I have had success with the weld but have stumbled in trying to recieve feedback (the whole point of the change). I tell the system to move with a constant torque until it reaches a target velocity, and then come to a controlled decel stop. So far, so good. I want to moniter the distance it traveled (each cycle) and compare that to target window for QC feedback to the PLC. That's the problem
I cannot find a System Parameter that contains that data and none can be reset (they're all Read Only). And for some reason, I cannot get the program let me set a user defined variable I named "home" to be equal to one of the System Variables at the start of the cycle. Then, at least I could do the math, and have my data.
Thanks for any help.
