GPP 9 System Components
The VisualMotion GPP 9 system is comprised of the following
components:
• PPC-R control using GPP 9 firmware
• RECO02 I/O modules (Local and SERCOS)
• VisualMotion Toolkit (VMT) Windows program for motion control
programming, parametrization, system diagnostics and motion control
management. VMT also includes DDE and OPC servers. These
servers are the communication protocol between Windows programs
and the control.
• Up to 40 intelligent digital drives can be connected to one control over
the SERCOS fiber optic ring
– DIAX04 (using SSE03 or ELS05 firmware) drives and motors
– ECODRIVE03 (using SMT02, SGP01, SGP03 or SGP20
firmware) drives and motors
– ECODRIVE C (using MPG01 firmware) drives and motors
• HMI interfaces (BTC06, BTV04, BTV05, BTV06)
GPP 9 PLC Support
The Bosch Rexroth MTS-R is a PLC unit that interfaces with the
VisualMotion control (PPC-R) and is available preconfigured in two sizes.
• MTS-R01.1 with one expansion slot
• MTS-R02.1 with three expansion slot
Note: The expansion slot(s) on the MTS-R can be configured with
fieldbus master interface or serial interface cards.
GPP 9 Interface Support
VisualMotion GPP 9 supports the following interfaces:
Fieldbus Interfaces
• Profibus-DP slave interface (32 words)
• Interbus slave interface (16 words)
• DeviceNet, ControlNet or EtherNet/IP slave interface (32 words)
Note: When using EtherNet/IP in a VisualMotion 9 system, no other
fieldbus interface card (i.e., Profibus, DeviceNet, ControlNet,
Interbus) or the MTS-R PLC interface can be installed.
EtherNet/IP uses firmware version FMC-ETH01*-PHT-02VRS-
NN.
Note: The word size in parenthesis indicates the maximum number
of words allowed in the cyclic telegram for both the Input and
Output directions.
