Hello. I'm new here and to EcoStruxure Machine Expert Basic. I would like to use an M221 (M221C40T) to control a Lexium32 servodrive. In the software, the only way I could find to control it is through the PTO block by sending pulse and direction. Is there any other way, with feedback, to control the servodrive over Modbus, CANopen, Ethernet, by adding an additional module or something? Like how it is possible to control an ATV variable speed drive over Modbus iOSCanner?
