NOTE
The cyclic data channels do not use decimal points. For example, the
digital speed reference 1 (#1.21) has units of Hertz, accurate to 1
decimal place. To write a value of 24.6Hz to #1.21, the value must be
transmitted as 246.
5.5 Internal
32-Bit
Parameters
on
UD70
The Unidrive Profibus-DP Interface has a set of internal 32-bit registers
in the UD70. These are addressed as _Pxx%, _Qxx%, _Rxx% or
_Sxx% from the DPL program, and the _Qxx% registers are used with
the internal position controller in the UD70.
A 32-bit cyclic channel can be created for IN data, OUT data or both, by
combining cyclic channels 2 and 3. This allows full 32-bit values to be
directly transferred between the UD70 and the controlling PC or PLC.
(See the “User’s Guide” for the UD70 for more information.)
The 32-bit cyclic channel is configured by mapping IN or OUT cyclic
data channel 2 (#20.01 or #20.03) to a 32 bit register, and setting the
mapping for IN or OUT cyclic data channel 3 (#20.02 or #20.04) to -2.
Channel 3 will contain the data high word (upper 16 bits of the 32-bit
register) and channel 2 contains the data low word (lower 16 bits of the
32-bit register.)
The 32-bit registers are addressed as parameters in menu 70 to menu
73. (See table below.) To map a cyclic channel to one of these
registers, the parameter reference must be entered in the appropriate
mapping parameter.
Registers Parameter
Reference
_P00% - _P99%
#70.00 to #70.99
_Q00% - _Q99%
#71.00 to #71.99
_R00% - _R99%
#72.00 to #72.99
_S00% - _S99%
#73.00 to #73.99
NOTE
If the mapping for both cyclic channel 2 and cyclic channel 3 are
directed to 32 bit registers, only the low 16 bits of each register will be
written to or read from.
5.6 Storing
Parameters
Although any changes to the mapping will take effect after a UD70 reset
sequence, the new values must be stored in non -volatile memory if they
are to be restored automatically when the Interface is next powered up.
5.6.1
Saving Unidrive Parameters (Menu 1 to 19)
To initiate the Unidrive parameter save sequence, set #MM.00 to 1000
and press the red RESET button on the keypad.
All parameters in these menus are saved in the EEPROM in the
Unidrive. If the Unidrive Profibus-DP interface is replaced, the Unidrive
