Thank you for the reply.

I'm still not quite sure how I use the None-volatile Memory Dynamic.

Any way you could provide an example on this? :)

Displays / DP610 Display issue, white screen
« Last post by samuelhj on April 22, 2024, 12:41:21 AM »
Hello.

I have a DP610 display in an old snow cat for a ski resort here where the screen it self is just white on bootup, all the buttons work and apparently the manufacturer does not have these displays or anything to replace it.

I'm wondering if anyone knows what TFTs these displays use or if anyone has encountered this issue and figured out a solution? My guess is the TFT itself is gone bad (although it might as well be the TFT driver or ribbon cables etc)

The display uses J1939 to read information from a Cummins diesel engine and the hydraulic system (ran by old MC510 controlers).

The ski resort is ran by volunteers so I'm doing this pro bono just to help them out. Any information or help appreciated. :)

Controllers / Re: PWM output, proportional Valve
« Last post by samuelhj on April 22, 2024, 12:25:10 AM »
Hello I am new to Danfoss! THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP!!

I am trying to control a proportional valve with a PWM signal, the valve requires a 0 to 600mA.

What are the steps involve in this. as simple as possible?

1. Scaling. the valve is inversely proportional so 0mA= 3000PSI and 600mA=0PSI, I can use y=mx+b or scale function from library.
2. is there a function block needed to output a PWM? or can I send the scaled value to the Multifunctional Output?
3. how is the ping configuration done? Output mode option 3,4 or 5?

Thank you again !!

Since I recently had to deal with Bosch-Rexroth valves that wanted PWM signal, I'll share my insight on this, be aware I don't know your specific valve type so milage may vary.
The datasheet for the valve should at least have some guidelines on how to drive the valve via PWM.

What worked for the specific valve I was working with (which was contrary to the datasheet for that valve) was

Config per output:
PinConfig = 5
DitherAmp = 600 (60mA)

Config per group (you'll see this under the main page for Outputs)
CurChgLim = 111 (default)
DitherFreq = 150 (150Hz)
ReqFreq = 1000 (1kHz)

After messing around with the settings for a bit this proved to be very smooth way of controlling the valves in question.

I used the PWM driver from the function library (really worth the investment to save time).

Be mindful that not all outputs on all the danfoss controllers support dither and such (like MC050-118 does not support dither on output 41 and 46 iirc).

I am getting this on a project after updating to 2024 version
*** ERROR 587 *** [PLUS1_IDE] INTERNAL: Unexpectedly reached else in {TXmifPresenter.GenerateOutput}
Same project was working fine in 2023 version. What is wrong?

1. As a beginner yes I would use the scale Fb this is
2. Yes there is a PWM_Driver function block found in the outputs library, see attached
3. Ping config 3 is a good starting point, see attached

I've just tried to update the hardware of a project with a DM1000.
I had a compilation error concerning the RS232 output which I corrected by modifying the data format.

I didn't get any image errors.
Did you get more details about this error?

PLUS+1 Autonomy Hardware / Path Follower Block
« Last post by ibrahim on April 17, 2024, 08:52:41 AM »
Hi,

I was trying to create an application that records and follows a path However, I couldn't succeed because the "Path Record" block requires a license.  Can I make the vehicle follow the path by providing an "Example Path" like the attachment "example_path.jpg"?                                                   
* Actually, I have created the following outline for this application (in the attachment-2:Path_Follower_E.jpg). However, the "Path Follower" block does not output "Cmd_Velocity". It only calculates "Cmd_Curvature". I'm not sure if manually setting the "Cmd_Vel" value is the right approach. In this case, I'm not confident if my vehicle is constantly moving to follow the given waypoints. What are your thoughts on this?

Thank you for your support.

Have a nice day

When trying to update the HWD file in my program I get the following message:

"Replace Missing Image Format"

I've never seen this before when updating a Display HWD file.

What am I supposed to do?
