Title: brx with gs-edrv100
Post by: maciek on February 21, 2020, 11:09:47 PM

i am using gs2 drive with gs edrv100 and brx , i am trying to jog the motor using plc and The GS EDrive Register Write (GSREGWR) instruction not the digital inputs
sounds like it should be somewhat easy

Have you set up your Ethernet I/O for the GSEDRV100?  That is done in the System Configuration.

yes i did and i can run it stop it change frequency or direction but i do not see option of jogging.

Sadly, I'm not a drive's guy, but I understand how to set it up for Ethernet I/O slave (similar to DMIO/EBC100).  Hence, a drive person will need to answer about the specific mechanism for doing a "jog" command.

I just send run command to drive and a low frequency reference to jog

This. That's all the axis jog command is...low speed velocity move.

See the attached screen shot of highlighted structure members.  You typically just look at/set these structure members as you would any variable from your ladder logic.  The Do-more Ethernet I/O driver takes care of reading/writing those to the proper registers in the GS drive.

If you need to set/read something other than those, use the GSREGRD/GSREGWR (e.g. Accel S-Curve value in P1.03).

I'm not much of a drives guy, but I play one on TV. However, officially, the GS-drive has a Jog-speed setting (P5.00) you could set with GSREGWR. And then the Serial Jog Command (P9.31 = 1). Is that what you are talking about?
