How to Configure a Motion Task using Modbus

MT.NUM 1              Modbus Address (548)       MT.NUM command sets the Motion Task number being configured.

MT.LOAD                Modbus Address (542)       MT.LOAD command reloads the motion task parameters from the drive.

MT.ACC 1000         Modbus Address (526)       MT.ACC command sets the acceleration to 1000 in the user units being used

MT.DEC 1000         Modbus Address (536)       MT.DEC command sets the deceleration to 1000 in the user units being used

MT.V    100             Modbus Address (566)       MT.V command sets the Velocity to 100 in the user units being used

MT.P 65535            Modbus Address (550)        MT.P command sets the moves position to 65536 in the user units  being used

MT.CNTL 1             Modbus Address (532)        Motion Task Control Word is configuring the Motion Task as a relative move.

MT.SET                  Modbus Address (554)        MT.SET command sets the Motion Task in the AKD drive

 

One Parameter or Multiple Motion Task Parameters Can be Configured using Modbus

MT.NUM 1             Modbus Address (548)         MT.NUM command sets the Motion Task number being configured.

MT.LOAD              Modbus Address (542)         MT.LOAD command reloads the motion task parameters from the drive.

MT.V    500           Modbus Address (566)         MT.V command sets the Velocity to 500 in the user units being used

MT.SET                 Modbus Address (554)          MT.SET command sets the Motion Task in the AKD drive  

              

How to Start the  Motion Task:

MT.MOVE starts a motion task.

MT.MOVE 1 -> Start motion task number 1. 

MT.MOVE 2 -> Start motion task number 2.

This command needs one argument in order to start a motion task. The drive must be homed, otherwise the motion task will not start (see also HOME commands).

 

Alternatively, MODBUS.MT can use used in place of MT.LOAD, MT.SET, and MT.MOVE.
