Third party ethercat motion controllers

We are looking for recommendations for 3rd party EtherCAT motion controllers to integrate with a cRIO system.  I am aware of this article.  We will be driving 5 rotary brushless motors (moving them a couple of "steps" movements at 400 Hz).  They have high resolution encoders (something like 1.2m positions per revolution).
We have spoken to Beckhoff but they don't support the high resolution of our encoders.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Steve-
I'll ask for forgiveness in advance for getting on my soapbox, and somewhat hijacking your thread.  I ask the questions I ask because they are important.  I come across many customers that ask for a motion controller, drive, motor, etc, and they say that want to move something from X to Y.  They then don't understand why I ask all the questions that follow.  There are a lot of details of how the system operates that need to be determined before components can be selected.  That comes from experience.  Experience of upset customers that have a system that doesn't do what they wanted it to do, because they never gave the details of what they wanted it to do.
I ask about the encoder, because certain drives can only deal with certain types of encoders.  Finding an EtherCAT drive is one step, but it doesn't do you any good if it can't read your encoder.  You may also want to not use the term "motion controller" when referring to the slave drive.  The cRIO will be the motion controller, and the slave is just a positioning drive.  I also ask about loads, speeds, etc., because there are always physical limitations to what a servo system can do.  The rotary table you selected has a fair amount of inertia, and getting it to respond to 400Hz commands will be difficult.  Again, this is just from experience.
I am also sure there are many smart people at Goddard, but that doesn't mean they know about such a specialized application.  I have worked with 4 different groups at NASA Lewis, and they call me when there is a motion control issue.  They know their applications inside and out, and what they want it to do, but then they need someone else to actually implement it.
And finally, to answer you question.  I do apologize for not doing that previously.  I have worked with cRIO;s, and with many servo systems, but I have never used cRIO and EtherCAT.  Yaskawa Sigma-5 is an excellent drive(standard servo motor it uses has over one million counts per rev), and is available with EtherCAT.  I know that some time ago, they were developing it to work with 3rd party motors.  I am not sure where that is.  Other drives that I have worked with that have EtherCAT are the ABB ACSM1, and the Gefran ADV200.

Brian

  • LabVIEW Interface for third party EtherCAT slaves

    I have a third party EtherCAT hardware (slave) and software. I am using and industrial PC with Intel PRO network card as the EtherCAT master. This setup works fine, and I can talk to the EtherCAT modules using the thirdparty software. 
    Now, I would like to develop a LabVIEW interface to talk to the EtherCAT slaves for testing purposes, since most of my test programs are written in LabVIEW.
    Is it possible to write EtherCAT software in standard LabVIEW 2013 using an inustrial PC as Master?
    If I use the DLL of the third party software, do I need LabVIEW Real Time module for etherCAT communication?
    -Thanks

    Hi rosh,
    I think it will depend on how the DLLs are designed. If you call the DLL at the right rates, you may be able to avoid using LabVIEW Real-Time. If you want to run LabVIEW Real-Time on your PC, you would need to replace the existing OS with LabVIEW Real-Time. Once you do that, you may be able to run your existing DLLs but compatibility is not guaranteed. This KnowledgeBase article describes the process of determining if your DLL is compatible with LabVIEW Real-Time (NI PharLap ETS is what installs when you replace the OS). For our other Real-Time operating systems on different targets, you would need access to the original source code so you could recompile for the new target.

  • Unable to install third party effects/titles. Missing folders in Motion Template.

    Hi. I am unable to install third-party titles/effects/generators in FCP X version 10.2. I navigate to my Movies/Motion Templates folder and there are no subfolders in there. I created new ones labeled "Titles", "Generators", etc and placed the complete folder of the third party effects in the appropriate subfolder, but the effects do not show up in FCP X. I am on a managed laptop and do not have Administrative control. I am wondering if because I have a user profile with limited installation control, could that be affecting my ability to add the effects or is there something else that is wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Preferences do get corrupted rather often, and deleting them is usually one of the first thing one tries whenever something strange happens in FCP X.
    How exactly did you delete the preferences? The current method of choice is by holding down the command and option keys when starting the application and then confirming when the dialog box comes up.
    I have not tried running FCP X from a non admin user account. Whether this could be the issue, I can't say.
    Can you post screenshots of a Finder window, in column view, showing the folder structure inside Motion Templates?

  • Third Party Programs for Motion on Stills

    Two questions:
    Question 1: I am just starting with FCE but have been using Windows editing programs for a long time. I produce a lot of documentary programs that use mostly still photos with the "Ken Burns" effect. Unfortunately, I can't say that I'm especially impressed with the ease and quality with which that effect is accomplished in FCE.
    In the past, I have used a stand alone/plug-in program called Moving Picture from Bill Ferster's Stage Tools to do this. Also unfortunately, his plug-in works only with Final Cut, not Express, and his stand-alone Producer application doesn't work with Intel processors on the Mac.
    I have also used Imaginate from Canopus, but of course it is Windows only.
    Does anybody know of another third party application, plug-in or stand-alone that will accomplish this easily in FCE witihout having to spend a bundle? I'll appreciate any information or suggestions.
    Or maybe I'm just being too hard on the FCE program. I'd like to pan, zoom, and rotate, all at once with a GUI if possible. I know I'm asking a lot.
    Question 2: If I am using mostly stills, both in the manner above and as stills only, and a very small amount (20%) of video, is it still important to have a separate media drive? I realize it all becomes Quick Time video in the long run, but I'm just wondering. My system drive has 500G with 412G available.
    Since I have a Canon GL-1 camera would I have to download all my resources to the external drive before editing, including video and the original stills and graphics that have been processed in Photoshop?
    If I need to do this, can somebody suggest a ready-to-go external firewire drive for my 24" iMac that won't break the bank? I'm going to have to buy a Canopus 110 converter also. The longest program I do is about 30 minutes. Thanks again.

    Jim,
    I have used Photo To Movie, $50 from LQ Graphics <http://lqgraphics.com/software/phototomovie.php> in the past and found it relatively easy to use. The downside is you have to render/export your motion as a file to later import into FCE. Although I've done that, I now find it easier to work completely inside FCE.
    If you need to make even the smallest change, it's fairly quick in FCE. But if you have to go back to PTM, you start the process over again with render/export/import.
    Also, there is Pan Zoom Pro $50 from Lyric <http://www.lyric.com/fcp-plugins/panzoompro/pzp.htm>. It works as a plug in for FCE. I have it, but have not yet given it a try.
    It did take some experimentation to get satisfactory movement in FCE. It does work. I don't have any problems with the quality once the motion is rendered. Here's a link to a short article by Tom Wolsky on motion control in FCE <http://www.fcpbook.com/MotionControl_inFCE.html>

The problem is 5 Disable LEDS on UMI 7774 board always lit even when I check "enable" on "Motion I/O setting" in configuration of PXI 7350 motion controller. Furthermore, when I start to control step motor, it is not working and I found disable LED on UMI board still lit. I don't know how to solve this problem. Can someone help me to figure out? Thank you in advance!

    Dear Community,
    I said wrong, 4 disable LEDS on UMI 7774 Board instead of 5 as my previous post. Why nobody help me to solve this problem. I can not turn off disable LEDs on UMI 7774 Board so I can not start the strp motor. Please help me!

  • NI Motion Controllers and Drives compatibility with stepper motors

    Hello:
    I'm trying to setup a motion control system and I'm facing some trouble. The final goal is to be able to control a couple of stepper motors.We already have a PXI System with a PXI-7354 motion controller, and a UMI-7774 connector block. What we don't have yet is the stepper drives and motors. It's likely that because of torque requirements we may need a gearbox. Here I disclose some of my doubts:
    We are considering the P70360 or the P70530 drives, but I would like to know if it is possible to connect thrid party drives to the motion controllers? What requirements this drives should comply?
    Similar as the first one, Is it possible to connect third party stepper motors to the NI stepper drives? What requirements this motors should comply?
    Finally, Is it possible to adapt gearboxes to the NI stepper motors? If so, Which ones are recommended?
    Thanks in advance,
    Robst.
    Robst - CLD
    Using LabVIEW since version 7.0

       Hello Robst,
    Either the P70360 or the P70530 will be good drives depending on your wattage requirement. A loose rule regarding wattage is not to exceed 80% of capacity. If you think you'll exceed that, buy bigger.
    Regarding third party drives, though many are compatible we cannot guarantee compatiblitty of all drives nor are we able to support them. That being said you may want to take a look at these KBs which describe some issues to be mindful of when looking at third party drives.
    How Do I get the 73xx Controller and UMI-7764 to Drive a Third Party Stepper Motor?
    How to Connect NI 73xx Digital Outputs to Third Party Equipment
    How to connect the 73xx inhibit and command signal outputs to third party drives.
    Some points to glean from the above links are what kind of current gets sinked and sourced by the drives to insure compatibility. Regarding stepper motors, again we will only be able to guarantee compatiblity and provide support for stepper motors provided by NI. That said, the majority of stepper motors I've seen are compatible with our equipment assuming the drive it's connected to is compatible. Below are some articles that may help you make a decision on what type of stepper motor you choose.
    Selecting the Proper Size Stepper Motor
    NI Stepper Motion System Selection Guide
    How Can I Determine My Stepper Motor Wiring Without the Stepper Motor Pinout?
    As for gearboxes, you will just need to make sure that the gearbox you select fits properly with the motor you are using. Often the gearboxes are standardized to NEMA sizes that correspond with the stepper motors. Kollmorgen, who manufactures the motors that we sell, also makes gearboxes. Their gearboxes would be a good place to start.

  • How to install third-party SSD as boot disk in MacPro 5,1

    I had so much trouble with this that I thought I'd post a recipe that others could follow.
    The first thing you should know is that it's not possible to get a non-Apple SSD recognized in a sled slot of a MacPro 5,1.  It just doesn't see them at all, even if (as some suggested) previously partitioned as a GUID partition (which works in a MacBook Pro, but not a MacPro 5,1).  This is true even with the most up-to-date EFI firmware.  You're going to have to use a PCIe adapter card.
    The next thing you should know is that not all PCIe SATA3 SSD adapter cards are bootable on a MacPro 5,1.  For instance, even though the Sonnet Tempo SSD is advertised as working for a boot drive in a Mac Pro, it actually works in any Mac Pro *except* the 5,1.  In a 5,1 drives on the card do not work as boot drives, either with option boot or if you select it as the startup drive after booting from something else.  Also, EFI boot is extended by about a minute -- not the end of the world, but an annoyance.  The Tempo card does work well for add-on drives, its very fast.  I am pretty sure the Tempo Pro variant of the card also does not work, as the Sonnet support guys told me that they have to use use rEFIt for booting 5,1 MacPros in their lab.  I imagine if the Pro worked they would have pointed me at that instead.  (Note that rEFIt has been superseded by rEFInd, http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/.  I didn't try using rEFIt or rEFInd because I found a better way, but if you want to dual-boot to Linux those utilities are apparently Da Bomb.)
    An Apricorn Velocity x2 Duo card *will* boot, and does not have a long EFI boot delay.  That card is a little more expensive than the Tempo SSD (but not the Tempo Pro SSD) but it works properly.  It's worth the extra money, especially since it's the only card I could find that explicitly claimed to work as a boot drive on a 5,1 MacPro.  And it does.
    One caveat: With the Tempo SSD the SSD drives were invisible until repartitioned in GUID format, which also happens if you try to use a third-party SSD inside a Macbook Pro.  I found that I could repartition one drive, a Crucial MX500 960GB, using a run-of-the-mill USB SATA2 adapter.  Unfortunately this solution did not work with a Samsung Evo 1TB drive, I had to use an external USB3 enclosure.  Moreover, the enclosure supported both FireWire and USB3 but FireWire did not work.  This FireWire issue might be due to the super-cheap enclosure I was using, so YMMV, but keep in mind that it's possible that you'll need either a USB3 expansion card in the MacPro, or a different Mac, to perform the initial repartition to GUID format.
    It's possible that SSDs would be visible on the Velocity card even before repartitioning, I don't know as both of my drives had been repartitioned prior to trying the Velocity.  So, it might work ... but you might need to partition externally.
    I don't know if pre-partitioning is necessary with the Velocity card, as I only ever tried pre-partitioned drives with it.  If you try the Velocity and the drive isn't seen, that's the problem and you'll have to use an external SATA adapter of some sort to repartition before installing on the Velocity card.
    After partitioning the drive and installing on the Velocity card, it worked fine.  Yosemite installed properly and with reboot it blazed.
    Next up, TRIM support.  For some reason known only to Apple, the Apple AHCI driver refuses to enable TRIM support for anything other than Apple drives.  It's possible that there are or were bugs in some of the early SSDs and Apple is just playing it safe, although I would have preferred to have the option to enable TRIM or not if that's the case.  Unfortunately there is no such option, you have to use a substitute AHCI driver.
    Unfortunately if you're using Yosemite you cannot use a substitute driver without disabling kext extensions, because Apple will not sign anyone else's driver (at least not at the time of this writing).  That's unfortunate, I would prefer to have signed extensions if I could, but realistically speaking you're no worse off in terms of security than you were with Mavericks so it's not the end of the world.  With a little luck Apple will either start supporting TRIM on third-party drives or starts signing third-party drivers sometime in the future.
    So: Before you can start TRIMming drives, you first need to run this command, or something like it:
    sudo nvram boot-args=“kext-dev-mode=1”
    I rather like seeing the boot process, rather than just the Apple logo, so I use this:
    sudo nvram boot-args=“-v kext-dev-mode=1”
    I tried both Trim Enabler (http://www.cindori.org/software/trimenabler/) and Chameleon SSD Optimizer (http://chameleon.alessandroboschini.com/).  As of this writing the Chameleon driver is more up-to-date, and comes with some additional utilities that are pretty nice.  Take your pick, though, both worked fine in my experiments.
    With a TRIM-enabled AHCI driver, kext signing disabled, a Velocity card, and your favorite SSD you are in business.
    The only weird thing after all of this is that non-boot SSDs on the Velocity card (or on the Tempo) are ejectable.  As far as I can determine there’s no way to mark them as non-ejectable.  That’s a minor annoyance compared to the performance you get out of the SSD, though.
    Because, with this stuff in there, yowza is the MacPro 5,1 a fast machine.  You Will Like It.  Enjoy!

    Then you should read these.

    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1795765
    I think your problems were solvable and not that the Sonnet card and 5,1 is not bootable, in fact the 5,1 is easier, there are more supported cards.
    I have the 1,1 where the Sonnet Pro is recommended but for data only and are not bootable because of the 32-bit EFI firmware. NOT the 4,1 and 5,1. The 2008's are problem child and have a mix of PCIe 1.1 slots, first implementation of EFI64 that also has problems. Also the 4,1 has two PCIe 2.x slots 3 and 4 that share a controller but that simply limits bandwidth.
    I would have left the TRIM support and NVRAM changes in Yosemite to a separate thread if you wanted to focus on the Sonnet Tempo Pro support in Mac Pro 2010-12 5,1s.
    Also the make of SSD can vary and they also have their own firmware as do bootable controllers along with the EFI of the Mac, all of which have to work together.  Meaning it might be that Samsung 840 va 840 EVO vs 840 Pro will all be slightly different but my experience is Samsungs work well (as do others like Crucial with the proper firmware - and there was/is an issue with the firmware of the Samsung 840 but not with booting).
    The PCIe card gets seen and treated as external and therefore 'eject' but of course you can't when it is the system boot drive.
    One thing I found last week and meant to mention:  After installing or changing PCIe cards, RESET SMC made all the difference in the world with the long boot delay. Some PCIe cards will add a few seconds, system has to search the device tree which now shows another controller with multiple devices - and sometimes NVRAM and SMC are what I will call "dirty" and need to be rebuilt and reset.

  • Suggestion for Apple or Third-party software company?

    My first question is, where should I post the following suggestion for an improvement in FCP or for the creation of a third party software – suggested sites, blogs, etc.?
    Next, my recommendation, and then my explanation of the reason why (including my personal semi-disaster):
    Recommendation: That someone create a “Project Management” software for FCP (essentially a file management program that runs in the background) that organizes and tracks all of the files created during editing/post production – including the log/capture or log/transfer of the original footage, the audio files, stills, effects, etc, AND all of the files created by the program -- Live Type, Motion, Soundtrack Pro, and Color (especially color). The reason for this is that FCP has an incredibly complicated filing system that results in shots, files, documents, etc., being distributed all over the place – and not all known to the filmmaker or identified in the documentation. And, that condition can lead to disaster – see below.
    Explanation: I just finished my first HD project using Studio 2, including sound track pro and color. After completing what I though was the absolute final version, I burned a one-off DVD and ran it by several filmmaker and non-film maker friends. They all spotted a small sound problem with one cut, so I went back to tweak it – and discovered that ALL of the footage had gone offline. I had nothing, nada, zilch. I had saved earlier sequences (rough cut, polished cut, etc.) and all the original footage appeared, but I had taken the final version into color for some corrections and adjustments, and ALL of those shots/files were missing.
    After burning what I believed to be the final cut, I had cleaned up my hard disk, moving stuff to my backup hard disk, to my RAID array, and to the trash. So, after the initial shock and complete panic, several hours of searching all of these drives, led me to the file that contained the files that contained the color corrections – in my trash, which fortunately had not been emptied. I have no idea where the files were before or how they got into the trash – obviously they were not added to the scratch disk with all of the original footage.
    Part of the difficulty of finding the shots was the discovery that color creates a file folder, that holds a set of file folders, each of which holds only one shot. In order to reconnect, I had to move the parent folder to the desktop, and then move all of the shots, one at a time. into a single folder, and then point reconnect to that folder. Problem solved.
    However, now I face that question of archiving the project, moving all of the files off my hard drive so I can use the space for my next film, and I am terrified that I will leave something out, and not be able to recover the project in the future. Having a project management software that organizes and coordinates all of that would be a lifesaver – and well worth the purchase price.
    Anyone who would like to explore this idea, please feel free to contact me – [email protected].

    You've just learned a hard lesson. Put your current energy into your education, not finding a way to wallow in ignorance.
    There already is a hardware device that will do what you want. It's called a "manual". In particular, the sections that relate to "where the program stores media". Pay very close attention to those sections and set up your computer so that all the scratch and storage pointers are aimed where you want. It's very simple to have them all go to one drive.
    Then, when it's time to archive the project because you are starting a new project, just purchase another hard drive for the new project. They are absurdly inexpensive these days.
    Remove the drive with your project to be archived from your computer (since you now know how to keep all the files organized, they will be all together) - and plug in a new disk for the next project.
    If you want a backup, use carbon copy cloner to simply duplicate the drive (or simply just copy the relevant folders- you'll know which ones) to another drive (or get a RAID 1 device)
    good luck,

    Almost any standard stepper or servo drive would be compatable with a UMI.  The Parker Aries you have a link to is a servo drive, not a stepper drive.  You motor ratings are unusual for a stepper motor.  What is the brand and model?  I have had good luck with Applied Motion stepper products.  www.applied-motion.com

    And if i need one, which one ?
    Thank !
    Seb (I am french so if you want to aswer french, let's go )

    Sebastien,
    l'UMI 7764 n'est qu'un bloc de connexion. En aucun cas celui ci ne délivre de puissance. Donc il vous faudra nécessaire un bloc puissance entre l'UMI et votre moteur. L'UMI 7764 ne délivre aucune puissance.
    (N'oubbliez pas d'aimenter l'UMI avec une alimentation 5V externe. Ce 5V est à connecter sur le connecteur situé au debut du boitier).
    National Instruments fourni des drives (MID 76XX)dont les specs sont limités en courant. (Elles sont affiché dans le lien ci dessous). Dans le cas de l'utilisation d'un drive NI, il n'est plus nécessaire d'utiliser l'UMI 7764.
    Le choix de votre drive se fera en fonction du nombre de phase de votre stepper, et de son courant nominal.
    Voici un lien sur lequel vous trouverez une liste de drive pour stepper. (Voir
    le bas de la page web)
    http://www.ni.com/devzone/advisors/motion/driveadv​isor.htm
    Je ne connais pas les spec de votre stepper, mais si vous désirez l'utiliser avec un UMI 7764, le plus simple serait de contacter la fbricant de ce moteur, et d'obtenir une liste de drive que celui conseille.

  • How to use third party plugins in PP CC 2014

    This is my first venture to use a third party plugin, in this case it's a transition plugin, and I'm trying to get it to work in my newly updated Premiere Pro CC 2014 on my Windows computer. I unzipped the files for the plugin into the Program Files/Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/7.0/MediaCore folder. When I open PP and go to add one of the new transitions, they don't appear in the Video Transitions drop down menu to select and apply them. I did some googling and saw a workaround involving an adjustment layer, but also saw several posts that said the 2014 version enables drag and drop compatibility. Any input greatly appreciated.

    It's called the Fancy Particles Transition Pack authored by Stefato which I found on Videohive here: Motion Graphics - Fancy Particle Transitions Pack | VideoHive. There were four versions which came zipped and I unzipped them to the MediaCore folder reference in my original post. When I saw the 7.0 in the path I kinda figured something may have changed on the internals between PP 7 and PP8. Still hoping someone will come through with a solution.

  • How to configure my servomotor and third party servodrive using Servo Tune

    I am trying to configure a small servomotor using a PCI 7342 motion controller and a third party servo power drive. When powered up, the motor spins at max rpm and when run, the Auto Tune function doesn't seem to have any effect other than changing the motor direction and running at -max rpm. So far as I know, the motor is set up correctly and encoder is fully functional. I have tried the default servo settings in MAX and also custom settings of what I deem to be correct for the system. The Auto Tune returns values for PID as 0, 32767, 0 respectively and changing these does have a slight effect on accelerations, but the motor has never been stabilised at 0rpm. I have changed the encoder connectio
    ns (as suggected by fozzy 27/02/2002) but to no avail. I'm at a total loss.... Please Help!! Cheers.

    i had the same problem with my servomotor from Thorlabs. what happens when you step the servo? does it travel until it hits the hardware limit? mine did this as it wasnt recieving any feedback from the encoder, im in the process of getting an exchange at the moment. luckily i had another servo to diagnose the prob.
