Getting Started with NI 9514/16 Modules and AKD Servo Drives
Connecting to the PC Using a Static IP
1. Use the S1 and S2 rotary switches on the drive to set a static IP address. The IP address is
192.168.0.S1S2
. For example, if S1 is set to 2 and S2 is set to 3 the IP address is
192.168.0.23
.
Note
If you change S1 or S2 when the +24 V power supply is powered on, you must
unplug the network cable from the drive for at least three seconds to reset the IP
address.
2. Connect the AKD servo drive to the computer directly using an Ethernet cable. Figure 10
shows the location of the X11 service port on the drive.
3. Select
Start»Control Panel»Network Connections
to open the
Network Connections
dialog box.
4. Select the network connection type corresponding to the port you used to connect the AKD
servo drive. This will most likely be
Local Area Connection
.
5. Click
Properties
, then select
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
from the list.
6. In the
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
dialog box, select
Use the following IP address
.
7. Change
IP address
to
198.168.0.100
.
8. Change
Subnet mask
to
255.255.255.0
.
Verify that S1 and S2 are set to non-zero values.
The Motor Responds Poorly
Use the Gain Tuning Panel dialog box to change the control loop settings for the motor. Refer
to the
Using the Gain Tuning Panel
topic in the
NI SoftMotion Module
book of the
LabVIEW
Help
for detailed information about the Gain Tuning Panel and servo system tuning instructions.
Cannot See the AKD Servo Drive in the AKD
WorkBench Software
Manually enter the drive IP address by enabling the
Specify Address
checkbox on the AKD
WorkBench software Start Page shown in Figure 16. To obtain the drive IP address either press
the B1 button on the top of the drive or disconnect and reconnect the Ethernet cable. In either
case, the LED displays the digits and dots of the IP address in sequence. Figure 24 shows the
location of the B1 button.
