MCTRL-UTILIZATION output, counter overflow (remedied from V7.0 in 9300ES, EP and from V8.1 in 9300EK)

Which products are affected?
9300EP position controller V7.0
9300ES servo controller V7.0
9300EK cam profiler V8.1

Eliminated function restriction
With growing utilisation of the controller the MCTRL-UTILIZATION output signal for the Ixt device utilization increased up to approx. 83% and changed over to a negative sign then (-83 %). From there onwards the value displayed re-increased towards 0 % with growing utilisation.
Now, the MCTRL-UTILIZATION is calculated correctly over the complete range.




Which products are affected?
9300EP position controller <= V6.2
9300ES servo controller <= V6.2
EVS93xx-EK V7.1, EVS93xx-CK V7.1

What happens?
With growing utilisation of the controller the MCTRL-UTILIZATION output signal for the Ixt device utilization increases up to approx. 83 % and changes over to a negative sign then (-83 %). From there onwards the value displayed re-increases towards 0 % with growing utilisation.

When does the problem occur?
The problem occurs whenever the Ixt utilisation amounts to approx. 83 %.

Possible diagnostics?
The values displayed under C0064 change over to negative values.

Short-term measures/recommendations?
None.

Evaluation:
This is not a critical problem with regard to the function since only the values displayed are affected.
