Lexium 32C Drive Not Responding to PLC Sinking Outputs

I'm experiencing an issue with a Lexium 32C servo drive which is not responding to pulse and direction signals from a Modicon M221 PLC with sinking outputs. The drive operates correctly via the SoMove software. However, when the command is sent from the PLC, the drive status remains at "RDY" and does not initiate the "RUN" state.


Could you please guide how to configure the Lexium 32C drive to correctly interpret the sinking outputs from the M221 PLC? Are there additional settings or configurations within SoMove that I might be missing, or specific parameters that need to be adjusted for the drive to acknowledge the PLC's commands?

Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi

I can only imagine that the inputs are not configured. Here is the manual where everything is described.

As soon as the enable comes on the input, the LXM32 should start in RUN.
