Good morning,i'm trying to use a motion control function with S7-1200 CPU1212.

The AC drive that i'm using accept only a reference speed from 0 to 10 V.

The direction of movement is gived by two digital commands.

The problem that i've found is that Motion Control of S7-1200 can control the axes by bidirectional analog signal (+- 10V) and only with a single digital command (enable axe).

There is maybe any special function to solve this situation ?

Hello.

It is exactly the tools you need.
Understand the underlying concepts that are described. 

Someone with the exact problem as yours came to a solution:

Problem solved.

The solution is very simple.

I've used only the OB95 MC-PostServo.

The analog output of the Axes is loaded on a DB, so the bipolar value is elaborated into the OB95.

With the instruction IN_RANGE select when the value is over 0 or under 0.

When the value is over 0 i've activated the digital output for forward, the opposite for backward digital output.

thanks
