Hello, I have finally cut some metal on my 1980 Hurco KMB1 mill. I still have a few loose ends to clean and at a point that I need a couple pointers.
Here is what I have for a system.
Ethernet SS
PMDX-126
PMDX-107
DG2S-16035 (servo drives)
I need to some how add a delay to axis movement when I hit reset. Here is what happens.
I hit reset in Mach3, the PMDX-126 actives the drives reset line for 2 secs, the drive takes 2-3 seconds to run through its reset cycle before it will move the motors. The issue is I can hit reset and hit jog and Mach thinks it moving even though the drives have not finished resetting yet.
I would like add around a 5 second delay on reset in Mach so that I can't jog the machine until the drives reset.
I have looked at my drives and they don't have a ready to run line. They do have an error line which I have connected to the PMDX-126 and it works. But the error line doesn't show when the drive is done resetting and ready to run it only shows when the drive has faulted.
Is this something I could do with a brain?
Any ideas? I have done some searching here and on the net and have not seen anything that looks related.
