    hi

    im building a seatmover sim right now. progress see here ( german ):

    -> http://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/seatmover-snc-sim-work-in-progress-german.5626/

    but i have a problem to bring the scn5 to work.

    i use following hardware:

    2x scn5
    2x usb to rs485 ( the same as seppel use )
    1x meanwell 24 v powersupply

    when i connect the software (simtools or the scn software), the usb connector begins to flash.
    with the original software i can up and download the original scn eprom files.
    so i think the connection is ok?!

    but i cant bring the snc5 to move.

    in the manual i have seen, theres a emergency stop. could it be, that the emergency stop is as standard
    activated and i must solder an ressistor in?

    thanks for any help,

    andré
