Issue
Users need to properly add and configure an LXM32S drive so it can communicate and operate over a Sercos network controlled by a Modicon M660 Motion Controller within EcoStruxure Machine Expert
Resolution
To integrate the drive, add a generic "SERCOS Drive" to the SercosMaster node and change its working mode to "Physical". Update the generic Sercos identification by setting the Vendor Device ID to "LXM32" and the Vendor Code to "1". Finally, configure the scaling by setting the Increment Resolution to "131072" (matching the drive's default). Once downloaded to the controller and the Sercos state reaches Phase 4, the drive can be operated using standard PLCopen Function Blocks
