Remedied from?
Device data update GU5
Behaviour of the new version?
The correct device description is installed for 9300 ServoPLC and ECS axis module V7.x.
Which products are affected?
Device data update GU4 with
ECSxA (ECS axis module V7.x)
EVS93xx EI (Servo PLC V7.x)
EVS93xx ET (Servo PLC V7.x with technology function
Global Drive Oscilloscope V1.2
Global Drive Loader V3.0
Drive PLC Developer Studio V2.3
Drive Server V1.1
Global Drive Control V4.10
What happens?
- Global Drive Oscilloscope shows the error message: Please start the IEC1131 program in the device first! although the PLC-program has been started.
- Global Drive Control shows a syntax error as of code C0365 when the parameter set of an ECS V7.x resp. Servo PLC V7.x is started. The parameter set (online/offline) cannot be opened.
- In the Global Drive Loader for the PLC target sytems ECS V7.x and Servo PLC V7.x the icon is not available for downloading the binary file and the application file. Only one parameter set can be loaded to this PLC target systems.
When does the problem occur?
With the installation of the device data update GU4 incorrect base device description files (*.PDB) for the PLC target systems ECS V7.x and Servo PLC V7.x are installed to the Lenze software products DDS, GDC and Drive Server. If after installation of the GU4 a project is loaded to one of these PLC target systems with DDS, the reactions described above will occur.
Possible diagnostics?
Open the information window (menu Help>Info) of the Lenze software product and check the version designation. The installation of the device data update GU4 is shown by the expression GU4 behind the version designation.
Short-term measures / recommendations?
Install the device data update GU5.
Evaluation:
The function restriction occurs after installation of the device data update GU4, when a project for one of the PLC target systems ECS V7.x bzw. Servo PLC V7.x is created resp. one of the two target systems is loaded. Existing projects are not affected by this function restriction, as long as they are not revised with DDS. The function restriction is eliminated with the installation of device data update GU5.
