I am a student and pretty new to Codesys and Motion control systems in general.
I am having a problem in my Codesys project where i keep getting the SMC_ERROR 34 SMC_AXIS_NOT_READY_FOR_MOTION. What i find strange is that i am getting this error while the status output on my MC_POWER functionblock is true.
I am using the WARP Device (CODESYS SoftMotionRTE V3 x64) and the SM_Drive_Virtual device.
What am i doing wrong? any help would be greatly appreaciated!
Ok,
I have done some searching through Codesys help and i am not sure if i found the watch window you are talking about, I found in the View tab Watch 1-4 and "Watch all forces", is this correct? there are no errors appearing in these windows under simulation
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Ok i found out why i didnt see anything in the watch window :P, i see that i have two additional SMC errors, but i dont know what they mean, could that be the problem?

Check Drive.fbeFBError in the watch window for the error history.

Its working!
Thank you very much eschwellinger,
I had set the task cycle time to 50ms, i dont know exactly why but that seemed to be the problem, it is working after i set it back to 20ms.
is it a hard limit to how long cycle time you can have for motion FBs to work? or is it possible to use a longer cycle time?
