It depends on how old your Simodrive is.
Do you have a Simodrive 611U or an earlier 611 drive?
They had some really old drives in the early 90s that were
also called 611's but they were not like the later 611's.
The later drives were usually in a rack format and they
usually ran off one common DC bus power supply.
However it was possible to have a standalone power module
with an onboard controller in the later drives.
To my knowledge, most were setup in velocity mode and
provided encoder feedback, even if the motors had resolvers.
However, there were a lot of variants. Hopefully you
have some common drives.
Thanks, I'm trying to get more details from the potential
customer. So far, he has not gotten back to me.
And, thanks for the pointer on the software.
