This document describes how to export parameter sets from the Festo Automation Suite CMMT-AS Plug-in to a CDSB-A1 operating panel, download it to the drive and activate it.

This application nodes describes step by step how you

configure a CMMT-AS-EC with CPX-E-CEC-M1-PN in

Automation Suite and how you can use the PTP libraries.

This application note describes step by step how you configure a CMMT-AS-EC with CPX-E-CEC-M1-PN in Automation Suite and how you can use the SoftMotion libraries.

When 2 physical axes are rigidly coupled together by the load or other means (examples: gantry system X/X' coupled by a Y-Axis or 2 x ESBF rods attached), then it is necessary to synchronise/Gear these axes with an electronic alignment (Master to Slave).

This application note discusses the required settings to control the 2 x parallel linear axes in Synchronous Position Absolute mode using CMMT-AS-xx controllers.

It also discusses ways to implement monitoring of Slave faults and
Error situations based on the “Cross wire monitoring”

Any PLC could be used for the control. Rockwell is just an example.

How to best commission a CPX-AP-I-EP system on EtherNet/IP. A focus will be on integration with Rockwell Logix systems, but much of the content is also applicable with any EtherNet/IP master.

The FESTO servo drive controller of type CMMT-ST-C8-1C-...-S0 is supporting the encoder feedback system BISS-C with Multiturn.

The following Application Note is a step by step instruction, how to parameterize this system with Festo Automation Suite.

This document describes how to set up the CMMT-AS-...-PN in "trav-el to fixed stop" mode by using the SINA_POS function block / telegram 111 in programming environment of TIA Portal

This document is intended to provide users of Festo control products with an introduction and support on how Festo controllers can be used as securely as possible from the point of view of cyber security.

This Application Note describes how to configure and run the CMMT-AS-xx with Multiturn Motor and 2nd incremental encoder by using the homing method 'zero pulse'. The 2nd incremental encoder is increasing the absolute accuracy of the linear axis (direct position measurement) and is providing the zero pulse for the homing. The internal multiturn motor encoder gives the possibility to detect the defined and fixed zero pulse for the homing process of the 2nd incremental encoder.
With this strategy we have an accurate reference point and do not need any HWlimit switches, HW-reference switches or any mechanical stops for the needed homing process.

This application note describes the using of the device services and methods offered for certain functions in CMMT-XX-MP within the TIA environment controlled by a Siemens PLC.

This document describes a way to control the CMMT-AS-PN via ProfiDrive protocol 105 with a Simotion P320-4 PLC of Siemens.

This document describes which control figures are implemented in CMMT-AS-PN drives and how to use it in programming environment of Siemens in TIA portal. Specifically focus on how to use Technology Objects (Interpolated motion) with PLC Open Function blocks.

Incomplete Festo product documentation of remote accessible functions and their required IP ports. Depending on the product a description of the supported features can be found in the product documentation to some extent.

Festo developed the products according to the respective state of the art. As a result, the protocols used no longer fully meet today's security requirements. The products are designed and developed for use in sealed-off (industrial) networks. If the network is not adequately sealed off, unauthorized access to the product can cause damage or malfunctions, particularly Denial of Service (DoS) or loss of integrity.
