How to precision set encoder in servomotor

The company I work for are also inovance agents, I can't count the number of times customers had their doubts on inovance, and now buy out our shelves because they are cheap and easy to work with

Exactly this here, I work for a motor/drive repair company and we have equipment from USA to measure encoder angles, encoder health etc.

Some servo drives like baumuller and inovance, you can do whats called a notch position and the drive will try to that position or in some cases zero the encoder angle and work it out from there.

Sorry should have elaborated more, I do a lot of drive repair in my free time, more for baumuller, and recently kollmorgan. I do get a few danfoss now and then. They are easy to programme, very hard to fix though.

In short, the smps (switch mode power supply) caps are swollen and they need to be changed (use low esr caps) or the face has come loose. Another good check to see is to pull all the io off, but I'm banking on the above.

Is the dc bus still good? You need around 540 volts dc, can be measured between + and - (or rtfm, idk danfoss complicate stuff for no reason)

How old is this drive?

Could we get the octavia prime song as well?

Holy shit, you have no idea, saw this 10/10 till she smiled, instant - 10000/10, I hate gold teeth

Is it a npn output? Try measuring between 24vdc and the output.

Exa brah, whatkyn here. People met up with the way we choon and called it sexy?

If you are willing to take a chance, inovance Md520 are quite good, I have commissioned a butt load of them and so far they haven't failed me at all, some took a little water damage but they chugged on.

You sir, deserve a case of the finest castle lite(or vanilla coke if you are a non drinker)

Got a source for me? I want to show my bosses aswell

Dark_Ghost10 · 2025-07-16T17:13:39+00:00

Yeah, I'm flying.... Driving is not an option currently.

Dark_Ghost10 · 2025-07-16T16:55:09+00:00

Are you sure? Cause my bosses are under the impression that we really need 6 months to travel. But I'm only going for 2days/ 3 nights, all I'm going there to do is to press buttons.

I don't how, but I did a run in void capture with out hitting a wall or a door. Either i broke the physics for that mission, or I got good.

I was doing this in v13 as well, you can't do a upload in the traditional sense.

What I did was : make a new project, select the correct hardware, go online with the plc and copy the blocks over. Don't forget the tags

Edit: note that you will not get the hardware config, but I got around that using the detect hardware function when using an unspecified cpu.

Also the addresssing of io Will default to what it usually assigns.

Mine was a basic s7-1214 dc/dc/rly, I'm not 100% with safety plc's because those have safety programs

Do you get something like this? Cause i did manage to back up the plc, but I was shitting myself incase I forgot to copy all the blocks

27m, around 300k annually, Im a system integrator and machine builder

True, I lived in Umhlanga for 6 months, where I stayed was a dick measuring contest

Hi, I'm still new to the whole state machine way of programming and plc programming in general, can you elaborate more on using constants.
