LinMot Drive Configuration over Fieldbus
Users of LinMot drives (series E1100 and B1100) can easily setup
their drive by using the LinMot-Talk software. Beside other
functionality (firmware download, monitoring, PLC emulation, etc.),
the LinMot-Talk software is used for altering the firmware
configuration parameters, for creating and up- and downloading of
curve profiles.
Most of the LinMot drives are equipped with a fieldbus interface to the
superior control system (PLC, IPC). This interface is used for
controlling the drive under normal operation conditions (read/write of
control and status word, sending motion commands, etc.).
If the LinMot drive uses a fieldbus connection for the communication
to the superior control system (PLC, IPC), then the same fieldbus
interface can be used for configuration purposes as well. The
following fieldbus interfaces are supported: Profibus DP, CANOpen,
DeviceNet, RS232 and RS485 (using LinRS protocol).
This document describes in general the access to the configuration
parameters and the curve data over fieldbus interfaces. Detailed
information about how data access is implemented in the respective
interfaces can be found in the corresponding interface user manuals.
NOTE: The series E1100 and B1100 differ in some functions from
each other. If nothing is indicated, the behavior is the same.
