KAS IDE fails to load the ESI files from the ESI library and fails to add the EtherCAT devices to the project when the FIPS (Federal Information Process Standards) security policy is enabled on the computer.
This failure may be noticed when using…
AKD2G Dual Axis drives have the ability to use the new Gantry Command Source. When the Command Source is changed to 4 - Gantry, Axis2 will follow all commands sent to Axis1 (enable/disable and motion commands). This is meant to be used when there are…
The below video demonstrates how an EtherCAT network can be created with the KAS IDE software and the FSoE parameters can be automatically shared with a BBH Safety Controller. Also, Safety Risk Assessment (SRA) parameters setup in the AKD2G…
The following table provides a resource for what firmware is associated with each release of the KAS IDE. This includes both firmware for the drive built into the AKD-PDMM controller, as well as the firmware for other drives that may be used within…
The following video goes through the steps needed to create a subprogram (sometimes called User Defined Function Block or UDFB), call the UDFB in another PLC program, and monitor code inside the UDFB while a project is running. This is useful…
The following videos show how to configure AKD servo drives inside of the KAS IDE software. The drive setup screens found in the AKD Workbench software are embedded into the KAS IDE software, but you have to have a project running on your controller…
The following video shows the steps required to make an online change to PLC code with the KAS IDE software. This allows the user to make changes without having to stop the project from running on a controller.
Series of three videos showing how to add camming to a PLCopen project in the KAS IDE with a PDMM or PCMM controller. The first video shows how to use the cam creation tool in the KAS IDE to create a cam profile by specifying master and slave points.…
