How to setup counter on GS10 Drive
I feel like I’m missing something obvious but when I try and set P02.04 to 23 it gives me an “err” message on the screen, and if I set it to 22 the counter doesn’t move no matter if the terminal is on or off.
I’ve set P02.19 to some random number for testing, and P00.04 is set to 1.
I’ve tried resetting the drive to default parameters but I’m still not able to set P02.04 to 23.
My model number is GS11N-22P0
I'm curious as to which firmware version you are using? Can you look at P00.06? I've tested with both versions 1.01 and 1.03 without issue.
My exact steps:
NOTE: the only way we can duplicate the error when trying to write a 23 to P2.04 is if we try to write a value to that parameter while the drive is running. When trying to write to that parameter, the Stop LED needs to be on steady and the Run LED off and not blinking.
Hi thank you so much for the response, my firmware version is 1.0, and I don’t have the cable to update the firmware so if there’s anyway to get this fixed without updating then that would be amazing. I’ve attached a video of me trying to replicate your steps https://youtube.com/shorts/M2pRIJBP44E?si=ZmINpznqsliTCwoS
Unfortunately, there is not. That is a very early version of firmware. I would recommend getting a USB-485M and updating the firmware.
Ok, thank you for the help!
