Getting Started using the CIP Sync Sample Project

Use this quick start guide to assist in using the Sample project for bench testing and evaluation of Kollmorgen Essentials drives using CIP Sync communication with CompactLogix and ControlLogix PLC masters which are Motion Ready processors prior to Add Kollmorgen Essentials CIP Sync to a New or Existing Project.

Sample Project Requirements

• Kollmorgen Essentials Drive (using firmware 2.x.xx.xxx or greater).
  • AKD2G with FS1 Servo Drive Firmware version 2.12.00.001 download.
    
  • AKD2G Firmware download list.
• Sample project for CIP SyncEssentials.
• Studio 5000 programming software.
  • The Sample project was developed in version 34.
• CompactLogix or ControlLogix Motion Ready PLC processor.
  • The CompactLogix Sample project uses a 1769-L30ERM.

• 
  
• The Sample project for CIP Sync is different from the standard Sample project for non-CIP Sync applications in these ways:
  • CIP Sync has its own unique Add-On Instructions and data types separate from those used with Standard (point-to-point) Kollmorgen Essentials EtherNet/IP.
    • These cannot be mixed and must be implemented as separate entities depending on your application.
  • The Sample project for CIP Sync requires a Motion Ready PLC processor.
    • The standard Sample project can run on either a non-Motion Ready or a Motion Ready PLC processor.
