<div class="markdown_content"><p><a class="user-mention" href="/u/eschwellinger/">@eschwellinger</a> - After using your suggestions I've the axis working but I've noticed the MC_Power block still doesn't function right. The axis goes into <code>standstill</code> state and is usable, but the <code>status</code> output doesn't light up and the block stays busy? Any ideas why this might be? Else, if its a bug do you how best to report it? </p> <p>Thanks,</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p><a class="user-mention" href="/u/eschwellinger/">@eschwellinger</a> - Thank you for the response. I'm trying to implement your suggestion. Based on the driver you suggest I get a revision mismatch. </p> <p><img src="./attachment/attachment.png" width="50%"/></p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>you need to change the drive in the device tree to the existing driver for this drive - I would not use the generic DS402 if a driver is available. See screenshot.</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Trying to get my first drive online with Softmotion.</p> <p>It won't enable, it stays in the busy phase of the 'MC_Power' Function block. Despite this the state of the axis seems to be reading as 'Standstill' and the parameters all look good. To my knowledge, this means the drive should be enabling. </p> <p>Steps for setup:<br/> - Scanned for devices on my Ethercat Network<br/> - Copied device to project which the scan found (Unidrive_M700_RFC_S (Unidrive M700 RFC-S)).<br/> - Right clicked device in the device tree and added a "Softmotion CiA402Axis". Which the Nidec docs say the drive supports.<br/> - Added a Program POU called "TestServo_PRG" and added it to the "EtherCAT_Task" in the Task Configuration</p> <div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span><span class="n">I</span><span class="s1">'m using a visualization to control my MC_Power block.
