Re: Ultra 100 - DeviceNet

This may be due to the drive being in an ENABLED state, as certain parameters can only be written to when the drive is DISABLED.

The drive should be DISABLED either via terminal rail or Ultra Master software. The download can the be attempted again.

Re: Ultra 100 - DeviceNet

I checked my copy of RSNetworx and Parameter 45 for an Ultra 100 is "Encoder Lines".    That definitely sounds like a parameter that cannot be set while the drive is enabled.

 

"Download to Network" does not load any network-wide parameters in DeviceNet like it does in ControlNet.   All it does is go through all the devices in the RSNetworx project and load their offline parameter values into the online devices.

 

In my opinion, there should be several "are you sure" dialogs before this feature can be invoked.

 

There are quite a few devices that can't have their parameters changed during certain operational or network modes, so those can't be included in a "Download to Network" series of downloads.   

 

"Download to Network" is also particularly dangerous if the offline project is incomplete or has old parameters in it.    If you've gone online with a fresh RSNetworx project file but you have not uploaded from all the devices successfully, you will end up loading default parameters into any device that has been browsed but not uploaded.    

 

So be judicious in your use of the "Download to Network" feature.
