GMP 9 Firmware Features
All firmware functionality supported in GPP 9 will also be supported in
GMP 9 with the following restriction:
• VisualMotion fieldbus slave interfaces are not supported. If fieldbus
communication is required, the SoftPLC should be equipped with the
capability to communicate with a PC-based fieldbus card. The PPC-P
cyclic channel (real-time communication to/from DPR) is configured
using VisualMotion Toolkit's Fieldbus Mapper.
• Ethernet interface is also not supported
GMP 9 System Components
The VisualMotion GMP 9 system is composed of the following
components:
• PPC-P control using GMP firmware
• SERCOS RECO02 I/O modules
• 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 (SMT02, SGP01, SGP03 and SGP20 firmware)
drives and motors
– ECODRIVE C (using MPG01 firmware) drives and motors
• HMI interfaces (BTC06, BTV04, BTV05, BTV06)
Note: When using VisualMotion's I/O Setup tool to assign registers
to physical outputs, the location (either input or output
registers) will determine which device is the “master” of the
particular set of physical outputs. If they are mapped to the
PPC output section, then the PPC will have control of the
outputs. If they are mapped to the PPC input section, then the
SoftPLC will have control over the physical outputs.
GMP 9 Interface Support
VisualMotion GMP 9 supports the following interfaces:
• Optional Programmable Limit Switch Card (16 or 32 outputs).
• Link Ring for Master/Slave interfacing of VisualMotion controls.
Drive I/O Support
Bosch Rexroth digital drives support the following I/O devices:
• DEA0x.2M (x = 4, 5 or 6) I/O cards for DIAX04 digital drives
• EMD I/O module using the EcoX interface for DKC22.3 digital
drives using SGP20 firmware
