Gents,
I'm replacing NC controller of Plasma Pipe cutting machine with CSMIO/IP-S, the issue is I can't make the motors moving!
My Panasonic Servo drives Model :
MCDHT3520 0.75KW
MEDHT7364 2KW
Mach3 configuration has been sat, I have motor shaft lock, I have, the servo drives and motors were running fine with my old NC, the Servo display [r 0], I have replaced the STEP/DIR cable, even I m getting [SERVO READY] output signal from the drive to CSMIO controller, but still I can't JOG the axis!
It seems I have a problem with setting the correct parameters to have the Servo drive communicate with CSMIO/IP-S.
here is the table of the Panasonic servo drive before and after the changes I have made but still I can’t move the axis:
[Class 0] Basic Setting
Before After
Pr0.00 1 1
Pr0.01 0 0
Pr0.02 1 1
Pr0.03 13 13
Pr0.04 204 204
Pr0.05 0 1
Pr0.06 0 0
Pr0.07 3 1
Pr0.08 0 0
Pr0.09 31566 31566
Pr0.10 50 50
Pr0.11 2500 2500
Pr0.12 0 0
Pr0.13 300 300
Pr0.14 000000 000000
Pr0.15 1 1
Pr0.16 0 0
Pr0.17 0 0
Please keep In mind this servo drive was used with NC control machine with touch screen, so the default Parameters were sat for NC type.
Recently I had a similar problem while retrofitting my water jet machine with also CSMIO/IP-S + DELTA servo, and thanks to TPS I have found the correct parameters [P1-00=1042], and abracadabra my project has been saved by a knight!

If more info required pls let me know.
I sincerely appreciate anyone's time and effort to help me overcome this problem.
