Adding a 7th axis

    Hello, I'm am finally back in the country (working on Movies in Mexico and Canada) and I'm going to try and get my 7th axis up and going again.


    I have a Fanuc R-2000iB-100P # F-89786

    Fanuc System Controller R-30iA

    Aux Servo Card ai SV A06B-6117-H106

    AC Servo Motor ai SR 30/3000 A06B-0041-B605#S042


    I have the following cables installed

    Link TB1 on the Aux Drive to CRR68 on the 6-axis drive

    Battery Connector CX5X A06B-6093-K303

    CXA2B on the Aux Drive to CXA2A on the 6-axis Drive A06B-6110-K210

    COP10B on the Aux Drive to COP10A on the 6-axis Drive Optical connector

    ENC1/JF1 Pulse coder L axis to Servo Motor A06B-6078-K225

    CZ2 Motor Power L axis to Servo Motor

    CRR65 on the 6-axis Drive to the Servo Motor

    There is also a cable for the fan on the Motor, not sure where to connect this.


    If you have any knowledge on how to add the Aux drive to the system I would greatly

    appreciate it if you could give me some guidance on how to proceed.


    Thanks,


    Michael Kirchmeier

    I'm not sure if this is exactly what you are asking but go into a controlled start, and then into variables and down to click on $SCR and change $NUM_GROUP to 2 and $NUM_TOT_AXS to 7. And then go back and go into $SCR_GRP<$SCR_GRP{2} (MAY NEED TO RESTART TO GET IT TO SHOW UP) set number of axes to 1 and then $SCR_GRP{2}. $AXISORDER set the first axis to 7. Then while still under controlled start go to menu<maintenance and set up the grp 2 axis as what you want (basic positioner, etc). you can either hit the soft key for auto setup or manual and enter all the motor info stuff yourself
