I am working with an AKD drive with NI Softmotion on a cRIO9035 controller. I followed the steps described in:
http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/375592d.pdf
I have configured the drive to work in EtherCat mode, but I can not find the device in NI MAX.
Also, I am able to add the axis in the project, but after I configured the settings of the axis and try to deploy, I got the following conflict message:
"At least one deployed item is no longer in the project."
Then I tried to compare the project and system, I found that I can not see the axis and EtherCAT master in the system. Is this because that the AKD drive is not communicating with the Softmotion? If so, why I can add the axis to the project?
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Sounds weird. Can you format and reinstall your cRIO-9035, then try to reproduce the issue again?
You can also try the "Deploy All" function:

Do you mean to format the memory of the cRIO? That might be my last attempt because I would have to reinstall a bunch of software. Yes, I did try the deploy all function, but got the errors attached.

Yes.
Can you provide your LV project to me? I can have a try on my side.

I have solved this problem. It turns out that some software on the cRIO is 16.0 version, while the Labview and NI SoftMotion on the host is 15.0 version. After I reinstalled the software on the target into 15.0, it works perfectly!
Thanks a lot!
