Commissioning software

The commissioning software for the AX2000 (Drive.exe, "DriveTool ") is described in the Commissioning software documentation for the AX2x00 Servo Drive, which you will find on our website (www.beckhoff.com) under Motion.

Default data record

The commissioning software for the AX2000 (Drive.exe, "DriveTool ") does not require any special settings to be made in order to use the EtherCAT AX2090-B110 interface card, provided your AX2000 was supplied with firmware version 6.48 (or higher).

Default data record for older firmware versions

For operation of the AX2090-B110 EtherCAT interface card, if you operate your AX2000 with an older firmware version, you must

The following parameter settings are a basic precondition for proper function of the AX2000 with EtherCAT. You should only deviate from them in exceptional cases.
These parameters should already be loaded if an AX2000 is delivered with firmware version 6.48 or higher; please check for reasons of safety!

Notice

If the bus system is converted to EtherCAT or for older devices that are converted to EtherCAT, you must adapt these parameters manually.

 

Parameters

Default

Description

ANCNFG

-1

Deactivates analog inputs 1 and 2

ANOUT1

0

Deactivates analog output 1

ANOUT2

0

Deactivates analog output 2

AENA

0

Deactivates 'Auto Enable'

WMASK

8

Assesses the communication monitoring ("TimeOut") with reference to the error

ACTFAULT

1

An emergency halt procedure is initiated in the event of an error

VCOMM

3600

Speed threshold for monitoring the commutation error in rpm

BOOT

0

Internal controller setting is compiled every time the system boots

UID

1

Returns the customer identifier (1: Beckhoff)

DRVCNFG2

|=6

Bits 1 and 2 are set as the default data record (=> latch activation by the controller)

EXTWD

100

No longer a special Beckhoff parameter, as has been adopted as standard

DRVCNFG

Bit 20

Only for EtherCAT: bit 20 is set due to CAN compatibility with DS402 V2.0

FPGA

3

Only for EtherCAT: EtherCAT/CAN FPGA version

OPMODE

0

Digital speed (depending on “operation mode”)

POSCNFG

0

Axis type (0 = linear, 1 = rotary, 2 = modular)

PRBASE

20

Internal position resolution of the drive (EtherCAT = 20-bit, Lightbus = 16-bit)

SERCSET

0

Fieldbus specific settings:
0x00010000 = TRUE - generates an error reset if shifted up from INIT/BOOT
0x00020000 = TRUE - synchronisation error monitoring (F28) is deactivated
0x00080000 = FALSE - generates an error reset via Bit 7 "Fault Reset"

The selection of operating mode (position, speed) is executed automatically by the TwinCAT system manager depending on the choice of process image.
