iPOS4808 BX-CAN Technical Reference
All iPOS4808 drives are equipped with a serial RS232 and a CAN 2.0B interface and can be set
(hardware, via a DIP switch) to operate in 2 modes:
CANopen
TMLCAN
When
CANopen
mode is selected, the iPOS4808 conforms to
CiA 301 v4.2
application layer and
communication profile,
CiA
WD 305 v2.2.13
and
CiA DSP 402
v3.0
device profile for drives and
motion control, now included in IEC 61800-7-1 Annex A, IEC 61800-7-201 and IEC 61800-7-301
standards. In this mode, the iPOS4808 may be controlled via a CANopen master. As a bonus,
iPOS4808 offers a CANopen master the option to call motion sequences, written in TML and
stored in the drive EEPROM, using manufacturer specific objects (see for details par. 5.3).
When
TMLCAN
mode is selected, the iPOS4808 behaves as standard Technosoft intelligent drive
and conforms to Technosoft protocol for exchanging TML commands via CAN-bus. When
TMLCAN protocol is used, it is not mandatory to have a master. Any iPOS4808 can be set to
operate standalone, and may play the role of a master to coordinate both: network communication/
synchronization and the motion application via TML commands sent directly to the other drives.
When higher level coordination is needed, apart from a CANopen master, the iPOS4808 drives
can also be controlled via a PC or a PLC using one of the
TML_LIB
motion libraries.
For iPOS4808 commissioning
EasySetUp
or
EasyMotion Studio
PC applications may be used.
EasySetUp
is a subset of EasyMotion Studio, including only the drive setup part. The output of
EasySetUp is a set of setup data that can be downloaded into the drive EEPROM or saved on a
PC file. At power-on, the drive is initialized with the setup data read from its EEPROM. With
EasySetUp it is also possible to retrieve the complete setup information from a drive previously
programmed. EasySetUp shall be used for drive setup in all cases where the motion commands
are sent exclusively from a master. Hence neither the iPOS4808 TML programming capability nor
the drive camming mode are used.
EasySetUp can be downloaded free of charge from
Technosoft web page.
EasyMotion Studio
platform includes EasySetUp for the drive setup, and a
Motion Wizard
for
the motion programming. The Motion Wizard provides a simple, graphical way of creating motion
programs and automatically generates all the TML instructions.
With EasyMotion Studio you can
fully benefit from a key advantage of Technosoft drives – their capability to execute complex
motions without requiring an external motion controller, thanks to their built-in motion controller
s.
EasyMotion Studio, shall be used to program motion sequences in TML. This is the iPOS4808
typical operation mode when TMLCAN protocol is selected. EasyMotion Studio shall also be used
with CANopen protocol, if the user wants to call TML functions stored in the drive EEPROM or to
use the camming mode. With camming mode, EasyMotion Studio offers the possibility to quickly
download and test a cam profile and also to create a
.sw
file (see par. 5.2.4) with the cam data.
The .sw file can be afterwards stored in a master and downloaded to the drive, wherever needed.
A demo version of EasyMotion Studio (with EasySetUp part fully functional) can be
downloaded free of charge from Technosoft web page.
