Good afternoon,
I'm using servomotors PSKF321 (SEW) and servodrives MDX61B (SEW). I'm using the PCI-7344/UMI-7764 to control the motors. When I was performing some tests in MAX, I realized that I don't have feedback from axis 2, 3 and 4. Axis 1 is working fine, i can control perfectly the motor, I can make movements to different positions. I checked the connections from the drive to the UMI and they are the same that i used to axis 1. I changed to other axis and it doesn't work. I tried to change the connections from the axis2 and 3 to axis 1 they work. I tried to put in annex the xml file related to the configurations of the PCI but it wasn't accepted. It is possible that my problem is a wrong configuration of the PCI?
Thanks for your time,

Hi Tomada,
Have you been through the UMI user guide ?
Also, it looks like the wiring might be the cause. Do you supply each terminal block on the 7764 (5V) ?

Good afternoon,
I'm sending the connections that I made in the UMI-7764.
Thanks for your time,

another thing, why only the axis 1 has PWM and the others don't have?

The inhibit output from axis1 doesn't commute also. When the motor arrives to the limit sensor, the inhibit output voltage doesn't change. In the motion I/O settings, in MAX, we didn't notice any change in the voltage by software, only when was commuted the switch S1. We are trying to program the inhibit output like the table presented in the bottom
X+ X- Inhibit output
0 x 0
x 0 0
1 1 1
X+ limit X+
X- limit X-
we also notice that the inhibit output doesn't change, no matter we press the halt, kill or start button.

The cable that links the PCI-7344 and the UMI-7764 is the 186381D-02. It is the right cable? This is a work of University of Minho.
