I am investigating a feature involving a ctrlx core updating the parameters of a drive, given the drive has been replaced. I know this is to be done by the Drive connect app, but I'm struggling to find how exactly. I've searched through the forums and wasn't successful in finding someone using the drive connect app like this.
My first thought was to pull the data of the serial numbers of the connected drives, and if that didn't match the last time the core had been booted up to write the parameters stored within the drive connect apps data locations to the drives by their ethercat position. I was able to load firmware and drive parameters to the drive connect app, but have been unable to querry what drives are actually connected.Â
Is there an example or guide somewhere on how to do this? The drive connect apps manual explains how to do it all manually but not how to do it automatically, as it happening without much human intervention is best.Â
