Hello,
I am using 6K2 controller for co-ordinated motion of an XY table. Parker has a document detailing the specs of Ethernet communication at following location:
http://www.parkermotion.com/manuals/6K/6K_Ethernet_Specs1p3.doc
I can communicate with the controller at port 5002 successfully but I have been only partially successful with talking to port 5004. The watch dog timer values are set at this port which enables Labview to monitor if all 6K2s are still online and connected.
I believe I am confused about the formatting of the 12 bytes. I send a VI to parker but to my surprise they don't have any one with Labview knowledge. I wonder if any one from this community has done what I am trying to accomplish. I am aware of the ActiveX control that is available for unit but for some reason I am trying to avoid it. I would prefer to use Labview's TCP and UDP vi to communicate with the controller.
I have attached a screen shot of the diagram showing how I am building the 12 byte.
Thanks
