Basic Information

Core scope

Covering five major categories of modules: digital input/output modules, analog input/output modules, digital hybrid I/O modules, counting and motion control modules, and special function modules (such as weighing and thermocouple modules), while distinguishing the differences between PCD2 and PCD3 series modules (such as the addition of cage spring terminals and higher anti-interference levels in PCD3), supporting industrial standard signal types such as 24V DC/115-230V AC input and 0-10V/0-20mA analog signals. Some modules have electrical isolation (up to 500V isolation voltage) and short-circuit protection functions.

Version and compatibility

Document historical version updates focus on module function supplementation (such as adding PCDx.B160/W380/G200 modules in ENG07), parameter correction (such as adjusting product status section in ENG09), and the latest version of ENG10 optimizes PCD3.A810/W800 power consumption parameters; In terms of hardware compatibility, the PCD2 module needs to be compatible with CPU hardware version H or above, while the PCD3 module supports RIO remote IO systems (some modules such as H210/H31x are currently not compatible).

(2) Core Upgrade of PCD3 Series Modules

The PCD3 series optimizes terminal design, anti-interference performance, and functional expansion based on PCD2, with the following core differences:

Module type: PCD2 series features: PCD3 series upgrade points

The screw terminal of the digital input module (with a maximum wire diameter of 1.5mm ²) has added cage spring terminals (such as 24 pole terminals for E165, supporting a wire diameter of 1.0mm ²), and the anti-interference level has been raised to IEC 61000-4-4 (± 2kV capacitive coupling)

The 8-bit resolution of the analog output module is mainly increased from the W6x0 series to 12 bit resolution, with an output delay of ≤ 10 μ s and support for -10~+10V bipolar signals

The motion control module only supports local IO H32x series, supports DSP processors, realizes S-curve trajectory planning, and supports 250kHz encoder input

Wiring compatibility only supports fixed terminals, supports PCD3.K010/K106 connection cables, and modules can be directly cascaded (maximum distance of 2.5m)

(3) Electrical isolation and safety characteristics

Isolation type and level

Digital isolation module (such as PCD2. E610/PCD3. E610): using optocoupler isolation, isolation voltage 1000V AC (1 minute), no isolation between channels, suitable for strong interference environments (such as near frequency converters);

Analog isolation module (such as PCD2. W3x5/PCD3. W3x5): adopts DC/DC isolation, isolation voltage of 500V, supports 7-channel analog signal acquisition, suitable for signal isolation in process control (such as chemical equipment).

Safety Specifications

High voltage modules (such as PCD2, E500, PCD3, E500115-230V AC input) need to be separately equipped with fuses (1A/250V), and are prohibited from being connected together with low voltage signals (≤ 50V);

The contact protection of relay output modules (such as A200/A210) needs to be matched with the load type: inductive loads require external current diodes, and capacitive loads require series current limiting resistors to avoid contact arc damage.

Installation and wiring specifications

(1) Mechanical installation requirements

Installation environment

Working temperature: 0-55 ℃ (if it exceeds 40 ℃, the output current should be reduced by 2% for every 1 ℃ increase);

Protection level: IP20 (IEC 60529), to be installed inside the control cabinet to avoid dust and condensation water;

Installation spacing: Reserve ≥ 25mm heat dissipation space on both sides of the module for vertical installation (allowing ± 15 ° tilt), and additional fixation is required for heavy-duty modules (such as PCD2. H32x).

Terminal installation

Screw terminal: torque 0.7-0.8Nm (compatible with M3 screws), wire diameter 0.5-2.5mm ²;

Cage type spring terminal (PCD3 specific): No tools required, directly insert the wire (maximum 1.0mm ²), press the release button when pulling out, and increase wiring efficiency by 30%.

(2) Key specifications for electrical wiring

Power supply and grounding

Digital module: 24V DC power supply needs to be supplied separately (ripple ≤ 10%), PE wire cross-section ≥ 1.5mm ², single point grounding is used (grounding resistance ≤ 1 Ω);

Simulation module: The signal ground and power ground are wired separately, and the analog signal cable adopts twisted pair shielded wire (single end grounding of the shielding layer) to avoid parallel connection with the power cable (spacing ≥ 200mm).

Typical wiring example

Digital input (source wiring): PCD2.E110 module E0-E7 is connected to the sensor signal,+24V is connected to the positive pole of the external power supply, and the negative pole of the sensor is connected to the module GND. The LED lights up to indicate that the input is valid;

Analog output (current type): PCD3.W410 module A0 connected to actuator (such as valve positioner), external 24V DC power supply positive pole connected to actuator, negative pole connected to module A0 terminal, select 4-20mA signal range through jumper;

Isolation module: The PCD2.E610 module needs to be separately connected to a 24V isolation power supply, and the signal end should be completely isolated from the PLC system ground to avoid common ground interference.

Function configuration and programming support

(1) Hardware configuration

Address setting

Digital module: Set the CANopen station address (1-99) and baud rate (10-1000kbit/s) through the DIP switch on the front-end of the module. After setting, restart the 24V power supply to take effect;

Expansion card configuration: Multifunctional modules such as PCD2.G410 need to be plugged into a communication expansion card (such as a PROFIBUS card) through Slot 1/2, and the module will automatically recognize it after power on. If it is not recognized, the locking status of the card buckle needs to be checked.

Signal filtering

Digital input: Select the filtering time through the internal jumper of the module (such as PCD2.E111 supporting 0.2ms/8ms switching), and select a short filtering time for high-frequency signals (such as encoders);

Analog input: PCD3.W380 supports software configuration of digital filtering (50/60Hz notch filtering) to suppress power grid interference, with a filtering time constant of 2.4ms.

(2) Software Configuration (PG5 Environment)

tool support

Saia PG5 software (version ≥ 2.3) is required to configure module parameters through the “Device Configurator”:

Motor configuration: Select the motor model (such as AKM series servo motor), automatically load rated current, inductance and other parameters, and execute “Motor Probe” to optimize the current loop gain;

Safety configuration: The STO function needs to be associated with a safety controller and set a periodic testing interval (≤ 8 hours, meeting SIL CL3 requirements);

Linearization of analog signals: The PCD2-W745 thermocouple module requires the selection of thermocouple type (J/K type), and the software automatically compensates for the cold junction temperature (compensation accuracy ± 0.2 ℃).

Programming Example

Counting function: PCD2.H100 reads the counting value through the IL command “RD-DIGIAL-IO-0TO15”, and sets “WR-DIGIAL-OUTPUT0TO15” to trigger the counter reset;

Servo control: PCD2.H310 sets the target position through the FB function block “MC_SoveAbsolute”, and the parameter “Position” is filled in with the number of pulses (to match the electronic gear ratio).

Troubleshooting and Maintenance

(1) Common faults and solutions

Troubleshooting steps for possible causes of fault phenomena

No response to digital input (LED not lit) 1. Power supply not working; 2. Loose wiring; 3. Input signal exceeds the range. 1. Measure the 24V voltage at the X4A terminal of the measurement module; 2. Re tighten the terminal screws (torque 0.8Nm); 3. Check the sensor output (e.g. NPN sensor needs to output a low level)

Simulated output deviation exceeds tolerance 1. Calibration parameters are lost; 2. Load impedance mismatch; 3. Signal distortion caused by interference. 1. Perform “Analog Calibration” through PG5 to recalibrate; 2. Confirm load resistance: voltage output ≥ 3k Ω, current output ≤ 500 Ω; 3. Add shielding layer grounding (single ended grounding)

Relay output contact adhesion: 1. Load current exceeds the set value; 2. Contactless protective components; 3. Frequent switching: 1. Measure the load current (such as A200 maximum 2A/channel); 2. Inductive load connected in parallel with 1N4007 freewheeling diode; 3. Reduce switching frequency (recommended ≤ 10 times/minute)

The frequency of the counting module is abnormal. 1. The encoder cable is too long; 2. Signal interference; 3. Improper setting of filtering time: 1. Cable length ≤ 10m (signal repeater is required for over distance); 2. Use twisted pair shielded wires (with the shielding layer grounded); 3. Set the filtering time to 1/5 of the signal period (e.g. 10 μ s for a 20kHz signal)

(2) Regular maintenance project

Standard requirements for maintenance project cycle operation content

Terminal inspection every quarter: 1. Tighten screw terminals (torque 0.7-0.8Nm); 2. Clean the terminal dust and ensure that the terminal is free from oxidation and looseness, with a contact resistance of ≤ 10m Ω

Module temperature monitoring: 1. Measure the temperature of the heat sink every month; 2. Check the fan speed (e.g. PCD2.H32x fan ≥ 2500rpm), the temperature of the heat sink is ≤ 75 ℃, and the fan has no abnormal noise

Calibration verification every six months: 1. Analog input: Input standard signal (such as 5V/10mA), read module values; 2. Analog output: Set 50% output, measure actual value deviation ≤ ± 0.5% (if exceeded, recalibration is required)

Monthly safety function testing: 1. Trigger the STO function and check if the motor torque is cut off; 2. After testing the safety relay contacts and activating STO, the motor has no torque, and the contact response is ≤ 10ms

Installation and wiring specifications

(1) Mechanical installation requirements

Installation preparation

Installation surface: It should be made of conductive material (such as galvanized steel plate) with a flatness error of ≤ 0.1mm. It should be fixed with M5 hexagon socket screws (torque 0.7-0.8Nm). The installation size of S701-S712 is 345 × 70 × 243mm (H × W × D), and S724 is 348 × 100 × 243mm. A heat dissipation space of ≥ 25.4mm should be reserved around it.

(2) Electrical wiring specifications

Wiring safety and sequence

Power off operation, ensure capacitor discharge (≥ 8 minutes after power off, measure DC bus voltage<60V), all power cables (motor/power) and control cables (feedback/I/O) need to be separately shielded, and the shielding layer should be grounded 360 ° through the amplifier front panel or metal connector (low impedance).

The distance between power cables and control cables should be ≥ 200mm to avoid cross interference; When the length of the motor cable exceeds 25m, Kollmorgen 3YL/3YLN motor choke coils should be connected in series (such as S70102 with 4 × 1mm ² cable) to reduce leakage current and EMI interference.

Core interface definition

Power interface (X0): S7xx0 model L1/L2/L3 connected to three-phase live wire, PE connected to protective ground; S7xx6 single-phase connection L1/N, three-phase connection L1/L2/L3, PE wire section ≥ 10mm ² or dual PE wiring, external slow melting fuse needs to be configured (such as S70102 with 6A/600V, S72402 with 30A/600V).

Motor interface (X9): U2/V2/W2 is connected to the three-phase winding of the motor, PE is connected to the motor casing, BRAKE+/BRAKE – is connected to a 24V brake (only with a brake motor), the brake current is ≤ 2A, and a separate freewheeling component (such as a varistor) needs to be configured.

Safety interface (X4A/X4B): STO1 Enable (X4B/6) and STO2 Enable (X4A/3) are connected to external safety circuits (24V/33-40mA). In dual channel configuration, safety relay outputs need to be connected separately to ensure SIL CL3 level. When not in use, they need to be short circuited to+24V.

Feedback interface (X1/X2): X2 is the rotary transformer interface (9-pin SubD), R1/R2 is the reference signal, S1/S2/S3/S4 is the sine/cosine signal; X1 is an encoder interface (15 pin SubD) that supports protocols such as EnDat/BiSS/HIPERFACE. The FBTYPE parameter needs to be selected based on the feedback type (e.g. EnDat 2.2 is set to 32/34).

Typical wiring scheme

Three phase power supply (S70602): L1/L2/L3 connected to 3 × 400VAC, PE connected to cabinet ground, X0 terminal tightened with a torque of 0.7-0.8Nm, power supply side connected in series with 10A slow melting fuse (UL class RK5) to avoid damage from surge current.

Motor and brake (with brake motor): X9 terminal U2/V2/W2 is connected to the motor winding, BRAKE+is connected to 24V power supply, BRAKE – is connected to amplifier X9/1, the brake control wire uses shielded twisted pair (such as 2 × 0.75mm ²), the shielding layer is grounded at both ends, and additional mechanical braking is required for vertical axis applications (brake is only used for parking and frequent braking is prohibited).

STO safety circuit (dual channel): STO1 Enable (X4B/6) is connected to the normally closed contact of safety relay K1, STO2 Enable (X4A/3) is connected to the normally closed contact of safety relay K2, and the relay coil is controlled by the emergency stop button. When the emergency stop is triggered, the STO signal is disconnected, and the amplifier cuts off the motor torque (fault F27).

Security Features and System Configuration

(1) STO security function (core security feature)

Function definition and level

STO (Safe Torque Off) achieves no torque output of the motor by blocking the triggering pulse of the power transistor, which complies with EN 60204-1 stop category 0 (uncontrolled shutdown). The single channel configuration (STO1/STO2 series) reaches SIL CL2/PLd, and the dual channel+cycle test (safety controller monitoring feedback signal) reaches SIL CL3/PLe. The PFH_D is 1.04E-09 1/h, and the MTBF is 20 years.

Wiring and Testing

Single channel wiring: STO1 Enable and STO2 Enable are connected in series and then connected to a safety relay output. The reference ground is XGND (X4B/5), with an input voltage of 20-30VDC and a current of 33-40mA. When disconnected, the amplifier displays “- S -” and the motor has no torque.

Functional testing:

When the motor is stationary (the enable signal is valid), disconnect the STO input, the amplifier should immediately cut off the torque, display fault F27, and the BTB/RTO contact (X3B/14-15) is disconnected.

Reset STO input, use Fault Reset input (X3A/18) or software reset to restore the amplifier to normal state, with a test cycle of ≤ 8 hours (SIL CL3 requirement).

(2) System configuration (software and hardware settings)

Software Configuration (DRIVE GUI. EXE)

Core configuration module:

Motor configuration: Select the motor model (such as AKM series) from the database, or manually input parameters such as rated current, torque constant, inductance, etc., and perform the “Motor Probe” to detect the motor inductance and optimize the current loop gain.

Security configuration: The STO function requires setting the STO Status output (such as X3A/6) and associating it with the security controller through the ASCII command OxMODE70 to achieve periodic testing; The security card S3/S4 needs to be configured with SS1 activation signal (X30/1) and reset signal (X30/20) to ensure the correct triggering timing of the security function.

Sports configuration: Set the electronic gear ratio for the position ring (e.g. set PGEAR1=2 and PGEAR0=1 for a 1:2 gearbox), gain for the speed ring (Kp=0.5-2.0, Tn=0.01-0.1s), and automatically optimize control parameters through “Autotuning” to reduce tracking errors (fault F03).

Hardware switch configuration

Address and baud rate: Set the CANopen station address (1-99) and baud rate (10-1000kbit/s) through the amplifier front-end buttons. After setting, restart the 24V power supply to take effect. The baud rate encoding is as follows: “25” corresponds to 250kbit/s, and “50” corresponds to 500kbit/s.

Expansion card recognition: After inserting the expansion card into Slot 1/2/3, the amplifier will automatically recognize it when powered on. The function can be configured through the DRIVE GUI “Expansion Card” interface (such as setting the PROFIBUS address to 3 and the baud rate to 1.5Mbit/s). If the expansion card is not recognized, it is necessary to check whether it is installed properly (card buckle locking).

(2) Electrical wiring specifications

Wiring safety and sequence

Power off operation, ensure that the drive capacitor is discharged (after power off for ≥ 2 minutes, measure the DC bus voltage<40 V), all power cables and control cables need to be separately shielded, and both ends of the shielding layer should be grounded.

The distance between the power cable (motor/power supply) and the control cable (step/direction/I/O) should be ≥ 20 cm to avoid cross interference; When the cable length exceeds 25 meters, Kollmorgen 3YL-20 choke coil is required (such as SERVOSTAR 601-606 with 4 × 1 mm ² cable).

Open collector electrode single ended signal: The controller’s open collector electrode output is connected to J4-1 (STEP+)/J4-3 (DIR+), J4-2/J4-4 are grounded, and an external pull-up resistor is required (when the voltage is greater than 5V, a current limiting resistor needs to be connected in series, the formula R CL=(V s − 5) × 100).

Universal input (such as Jog+): When using an internal 5V power supply, connect J4-14 (DIN5) to one end of the button and J4-20 (Pull Up/Dn) to the other end of the button; When using an external 24V power supply, a current limiting resistor should be connected in series (as above).

Parameter configuration and software operation

(1) Switch configuration (hardware quick setting)

Basic parameter settings can be made through the S1 (motor selection) and S2 (function configuration) switches on the top of the driver, and can be started without software:

Motor selection (S1+S2-1): S1 selects the motor series (e.g. S1=1 corresponds to T21… C series, S1=4 corresponds to N31… G series), S2-1 selects the motor type (OFF is the standard series, ON is CTM/CTP series), CTP motors require additional heat dissipation plates (equivalent to 4.125 × 4.125 × 0.25 inch aluminum plates), otherwise the rated current needs to be reduced by 25%.

Step resolution (S2-2~S2-4): Supports 8 levels of resolution, such as ON/ON/ON corresponding to 200 steps/revolution, OFF/OFF/OFF corresponding to 25000 steps/revolution.

Load inertia ratio (S2-5~S2-7): Set according to the load rotor inertia ratio (0-1 to 20-32), used to optimize anti resonance gain, such as OFF/OFF/OFF corresponding to 0-1, ON/ON/ON corresponding to 20-32.

Function switches (S2-8~S2-12): Dynamic smoothing (S2-8/S2-9), current reduction (S2-10), multi-step (S2-11), locked rotor detection (S2-12), ON is enabled, OFF is disabled.

After starting the software, scan the drive through “Scan for Connected”. For the first connection, configure the node address (1-99) to ensure that there is no conflict with the hardware switch.

Core configuration module

Motor configuration: Select the motor model (or create a custom motor through the “Motor File Editor”, enter parameters such as rated current, number of poles, peak torque, etc.), execute the “Probe Stepper Motor” to detect the motor inductance, and optimize the control algorithm.

Mechanical parameters: Set user units (steps/revolutions/millimeters/inches), gear ratio (e.g. 2:1 gearbox set to 2 motor revolutions/load revolutions), and load inertia for motion profile calculation.

Command configuration: Set step resolution (consistent with hardware switch), rotation polarity (reverse motor direction), enable polarity (Active Open/Lost), speed/acceleration/deceleration limits. Jog speed is divided into high and low gears (such as 20 revolutions per second for high speed and 0.5 revolutions per second for low speed).

I/O configuration: Customize 9 universal inputs (such as Jog+/Jog -/EOT+/EOT -/fault reset/start movement), input debounce time (default 1 ms), and universal output functions (such as motor operation/stall/EOT latch).

Advanced settings: Adjust anti resonance frequency (formula)

AResFrequency= 100⋅J Rotor ToothCount⋅T max)、 Dynamic smoothing frequency (formula SmoothingFrequency=9 ⋅ J Rotor ToothCount ⋅ T max), current reduction ratio, and delay.

Select Profile through “Move Select” input (up to 6 channels, binary encoding). If inputting 1+2 triggers Profile 3, configure “Start Move” input to trigger motion (edge triggered).

KOLLMORGEN AKM series synchronous servo motor

Basic Information

Core positioning: The AKM series is a brushless DC synchronous servo motor that uses neodymium iron boron permanent magnet rotors and three-phase stator windings. It is equipped with a hollow shaft rotary transformer feedback as standard, and can be configured with a brake, EnDat encoder, shaft sealing ring, etc. It needs to be combined with a SERVOSTAR servo amplifier to form a closed-loop control system, and direct connection to the mains power is prohibited for operation.

Supporting resources: Should be used in conjunction with SERVOSTAR servo amplifier installation manual, operating software manual, and accessory manual; The original factory provides pre assembled motor power cables (such as 4 × 1mm ² shielded wire) and rotary transformer cables (4 × 2 × 0.25mm ² twisted pair). When selecting, the cable specifications should be matched according to the motor model.

Shaft end specification: cylindrical shaft (AKM1 with h7 tolerance, others with k6 tolerance), with locking thread, optional keyway (DIN 748)

​(2) Optional configuration

Brake: 24V DC spring compression, braking when power is off, only used for parking braking (frequent operation braking is prohibited). The holding torque of the brake varies for different models (such as AKM2 at 1.42Nm and AKM7 at 53Nm), with a release delay of 20-110ms. When applied, external current components (such as varistors) are required.

Feedback device: Standard 2-pole hollow shaft rotary transformer, optional single/multi turn EnDat encoder (AKM2-4 uses ECN1113/EQN1125, AKM5-7 uses ECN1313/EQN1325) or incremental encoder with commutation signal (Comencoder), the encoder will increase the motor length and cannot be retrofitted.

Shaft sealing ring: anti oil mist/splash, raising the protection level of the shaft sleeve to IP65, not suitable for dry operation scenarios, additional order required.

Keyway: Process the shaft end keyway according to DIN 748, with short keys, and the shaft balance should include the weight of the keys. When selecting, pay attention to the radial force variation (the radial force limit remains unchanged with keyway).

Installation and wiring specifications

(1) Mechanical installation requirements

Installation preparation

Installation surface: It should be made of conductive material (such as aluminum alloy), with a flatness error of ≤ 0.1mm. AKM1/2 should reserve ≥ 50mm of heat dissipation space. AKM3 and above should be matched with designated cold plates (such as AKM3 requiring 350 × 350 × 10mm aluminum plates), and pasted with original thermal conductive film (model 849-373000-04 for small models).

Load limitation: The radial force (FR) allowed at the shaft end is negatively correlated with the rotational speed, for example, at 5000 min ⁻¹, FR=145N for AKM2, and the axial force (FA) ≤ FR/3; The formula for the minimum pulley diameter must be met during belt transmission

D min ≥ M 0/(F R × 2) (M 0 is the static torque) to avoid bearing overload.

Coupling selection: It is recommended to use friction couplings without backlash (such as Baumann&Cie, KTR brand), with a coaxiality error of ≤ 0.1mm. It is prohibited to use rigid couplings with external bearings for constrained installation to prevent excessive stress on the shaft system.

Installation steps

Clean the installation surface, stick the thermal conductive film (if necessary), and use M5 hex screws (torque 0.7~0.8Nm) to fix the motor, ensuring that the flange fits snugly without any gaps.

Install the coupler/pulley and tighten it with the shaft end locking thread. Do not strike the shaft end (to avoid bearing damage). The AKM1 shaft tolerance is h7, and attention should be paid to the fit clearance.

Check the flexibility of the shaft rotation (without jamming or abnormal noise), and ensure that no liquid enters the upper bearing when installing V3 (with the shaft end facing upwards).

(2) Electrical wiring specifications

Wiring sequence and safety

Power off operation, ensure that the servo amplifier capacitor discharges (after power off for ≥ 5 minutes, measure the DC bus voltage<40V), and the motor junction box needs to be reliably grounded (PE wire cross-section>10mm ² or double PE wiring).

The distance between the power cable and the control cable is ≥ 20cm. If the power cable contains a brake control line (such as 4 × 1+2 × 0.75mm ²), it needs to be shielded separately and grounded at both ends.

When the cable length exceeds 25m, Kollmorgen 3YL-20 choke coil is required (such as SERVOSTAR 601-606 with 4 × 1mm ² cable, 620 with 4 × 2.5mm ² cable).

Core interface definition

Power interface: 4+4-pole circular connector (AKM1/2 for straight head, AKM3+for elbow), U/V/W connected to motor three-phase winding, PE connected to motor casing, brake wire (± BR) connected to 24V DC (only for brake models).

Feedback interface: The rotary transformer uses a 12 pole circular connector, with R1/R2 as the reference signal, S1/S2 as the sine signal, S3/S4 as the cosine signal, and COM ± as the power supply; The EnDat encoder uses a 17 pole connector, which includes clock (CLK ±), data (DAT ±), and power supply (+5V/0V).

Typical Connection Diagram 

Rotary transformer motor: The power end U/V/W/PE is connected to the amplifier output, the feedback end R1/R2/S1/S2/S3/S4 is connected to the amplifier rotary transformer interface, and the PTC thermistor is connected in series to the amplifier overheat protection circuit.

Encoder motor: The encoder clock/data line is connected to the amplifier interface and needs to be separately shielded (with both ends of the shielding layer grounded) to avoid parallel wiring with the power cable.

System debugging and maintenance

(1) Debugging process

Pre inspection

Confirm that the motor is matched with the amplifier (rated voltage and current are consistent), the wiring conforms to the diagrams, and the brake can be released normally after being powered on (no jamming at 24V).

Manually rotate the motor shaft, confirm that there is no mechanical blockage, monitor the bearings for any abnormal noise, and check that the heat dissipation channel is unobstructed (ambient temperature ≤ 40 ℃).

Amplifier configuration

Load motor parameters through SERVOSTAR software (Kollmorgen motor automatically recognizes, third-party motors require manual input of rated torque, inductance, etc.), set the resolution and pole number of the rotary/encoder (to match the actual motor, incorrect settings may burn out the motor).

Perform motor recognition and automatic tuning, optimize current loop and speed loop gains, and conduct multi axis linkage testing after single axis debugging is completed.

Functional Verification

Jogging test: Run at low speed (<100min ⁻¹), confirm that the steering and torque output are normal, monitor the motor temperature (≤ 100 ℃ during operation, cool to 40 ℃ after shutdown and touch again).

Brake test: When the power is cut off, the brake should be immediately applied, and the release should be delayed by ≤ 100ms after power on. The vertical axis should be tested for no load drop after power off (with dual protection of mechanical braking).

(2) Maintenance and Lifecycle Management

routine maintenance

Check the bearing noise every 2500 operating hours or annually. If any abnormal noise occurs, stop the machine and replace the bearing (the bearing grease has a lifespan of 20000 hours and needs to be replaced if it exceeds the deadline).

Wipe the outer shell with isopropanol during cleaning (do not soak or spray), and avoid using solvents such as trichloroethylene and nitro diluents (which may damage the RAL 9005 matte black paint coating).

Storage and transportation

Storage conditions: Temperature -25~+55 ℃, humidity 5%~95% (no condensation), original packaging stacking height not exceeding the limit (such as AKM1/2 stacking 10 boxes, AKM6/7 stacking 1 box), storage period unlimited.

Transportation requirements: Climate category 2K3, temperature -25~+70 ℃ (temperature change rate ≤ 20K/hour), avoid impact, and inspect the appearance of the motor for packaging damage (such as no deformation of the shaft end and flange).

Retirement disposal

According to the requirements of the WEEE directive, qualified electronic waste processors can be used for recycling. They can contact service centers in Kollmorgen to obtain recycling channels (such as sending from Europe to Ratingen factory in Germany and from China to Minhang district office in Shanghai).

Check if the axial force is ≤ FR/3 and replace the damaged bearing; 3. Confirm that the brake model matches the motor

Key safety warning

Electrical safety: There may be a high voltage of 900V at the power end of the motor. After power failure, the residual voltage of the capacitor needs to be reduced to the safe value (<40V) within 5 minutes. Before operation, the DC bus voltage must be measured; PE wiring cannot be omitted (leakage current>3.5mA, double PE or large section PE wire to prevent electric shock).

Mechanical safety: The surface temperature of the motor during operation may exceed 100 ℃, and direct touch is prohibited; The keyway at the shaft end needs to be installed with a key before operation to avoid injury caused by centrifugal force throwing out the key; The vertical axis must be equipped with mechanical braking (the holding brake is only used as an auxiliary and requires dual protection in case of malfunction).

Environmental safety: Prohibited from use in explosive or corrosive gas/liquid environments; The motor should be stopped immediately after water ingress, and the insulation resistance (≥ 1M Ω) should be measured after drying before restarting, otherwise it may be short circuited and burned out.

High voltage risk: The DC bus voltage of the driver can reach up to 900V, and it takes 7 minutes for the residual voltage of the capacitor to drop below 50V after power failure. Before operation, the bus voltage must be measured (AKD-C test X14 terminal, MKD-C test X23 terminal).

Grounding requirements: If the leakage current is greater than 3.5mA, double PE wiring or PE cables with a cross-section greater than 10mm ² should be used, and the installation plate should be made of non painted conductive material to avoid EMC interference.

Electrostatic protection: The equipment contains electrostatic sensitive components inside, and human static electricity must be released before operation to avoid contact with insulating materials (such as synthetic clothing). The equipment should be placed on a conductive surface.

Mechanical safety

High temperature protection: During operation, the temperature of the drive casing may exceed 80 ℃. Before contact, it should be cooled to below 40 ℃ to avoid burns.

Automatic restart risk: When the parameter DRV. ENDEFAULT=1, automatic restart may occur after power on, voltage drop, or power failure recovery. A “Warning: Possible Automatic Startup” sign should be posted in the hazardous area of the machine.

Suspension load protection: An additional mechanical braking device (such as motor brake) should be installed on the vertical axis, and MOTOR.BRAKEIM=1 should be set to ensure that the brake is immediately applied in case of a fault to prevent the load from falling.

Compliance certification: Compliant with the EC Machinery Directive (2006/42/EU), Low Voltage Directive (2014/35/EU), EMC Directive (2014/30/EU), UL/cUL (document number E217428), EAC, RoHS (2011/65/EU), REACH certification, STO function meets IEC 62061 SIL 2, ISO 13849-1 PLd/CAT 3 safety level.

STO cable: Phoenix SAC 4P-M12MS (4 × 0.34mm ², maximum length 30m) is used for DS/DT models.

Installation and commissioning process

(1) Mechanical installation

Installation preparation: Ensure that the installation surface is made of conductive material (such as aluminum cold plate), and the size of the cold plate needs to meet the requirements (AKD-N00307 needs 350 × 350 × 10mm, AKD-N01207 needs 480 × 400 × 84mm finned heat sink). The surface flatness error should be ≤ 0.1mm, and a thermal conductive film (model 849-373000-04 for 003/006 model, 849-374001-04 for 012 model) needs to be pasted.

Installation steps:

Fix the driver on the cold plate with 4 M5 hex screws (torque 0.7~0.8Nm), ensuring that there is a heat dissipation space of ≥ 50mm around.

If using the optional heat sink (50mm high), four M4 × 16 screws (torque 0.2~0.25Nm) are needed to secure the heat sink to the bottom of the drive.

Check the installation firmness to avoid loose wiring caused by vibration.

(2) Electrical wiring

Wiring sequence: It is recommended to follow the sequence of “X2 (mixed output) → X1 (mixed input) → X4 (motor) → X5 (feedback) → X3 (I/O) → X6 (optional)” to avoid live operation.

Key wiring specifications:

Power and grounding: PE wires need to be double connected or cables with a cross-sectional area greater than 10mm ² should be used. The cold plate should be reliably connected to the system grounding grid (impedance ≤ 0.1 Ω).

Motor wiring: The U/V/W phase sequence should be consistent with the motor nameplate, and the polarity of the brake wire (± BR) should be confirmed (reverse connection can cause brake failure). The shielding layer of the mixed cable should be grounded through a plug.

Feedback wiring: EnDat/BiSS feedback needs to distinguish between clock and data lines to avoid reverse wiring; The DF/DS model with single cable connection needs to plug AKD-N-JUMP-X5 connector (short circuit Pin4/Pin5) into X5 to ensure feedback power supply.

STO wiring: The local STO input needs to be connected to a PELV level 24V power supply (such as a safety controller output), and the cable needs to be wired separately, away from power cables, to avoid interference.

System topology limitations:

AKD-C single string can connect up to 8 AKD-Ns, MKD-C single string can connect up to 14 (hardware revision C), and the total cable length of a single string is ≤ 100m.

Single string total current: AKD-C two string total ≤ 17A, MKD-C single string ≤ 16A; total power: AKD-C two string total ≤ 11kW, MKD-C single string ≤ 10kW, axis coincidence coefficient needs to be calculated to avoid overload.

(3) System debugging

Preliminary preparation:

Install the WorkBench software (downloaded from DVD or official website) and connect the X18 interface between the PC and AKD-C/MKD-C using an Ethernet cable.

Connect the 24V logic power supply of the system (no main power supply required), confirm that the Ethernet indicator light of AKD-C/MKD-C is on, and that the PC can recognize the driver (distinguished by MAC address or name).

Basic configuration (via Setup Wizard):

Select the driver and configure the IP address (default associated with CAN node address, can be manually modified).

Select the motor model (Kollmorgen motor automatically loads parameters, third-party motors require manual input of rated current, inductance, and other parameters).

Configure feedback type (such as EnDat 2.2), set gear ratio (6091h) and feed in constant (6092h).

Perform motor identification and automatic tuning, optimize current loop and speed loop parameters.

Security function testing:

Global STO test: Send an STO signal through the X16 terminal of AKD-C/MKD-C to confirm that the driver torque is cut off and the motor slides freely.

Local STO test (DS/DT models): Disconnect the STO enable signal (0V) of X6 to confirm that the driver cannot be enabled; After restoring 24V, the driver can start normally.

Functional verification:

Enable the driver (hardware enabled+software enabled), send jog commands through WorkBench, and confirm that the motor direction and speed meet expectations.

Test digital I/O: Set DI1 to “controlled stop” and trigger the motor to stop at the set deceleration (CS. DEC); Check if the output status of DO1 is consistent with the preset function.

Monitoring key parameters: Check the DC bus voltage (VBUS. VALUE), motor current (IL. FB), and temperature (DRV. TEMP) to confirm that there are no abnormal warnings or faults.

Detailed explanation of Safety Functions (STO)

(1) STO types and applicable scenarios

Global STO: Control the STO function of the entire string through AKD-C/MKD-C, suitable for multi axis synchronous safety control, supports 1-14 AKD-N (hardware revision C), response time ≤ 10ms (the more nodes, the faster the response), requires the use of original factory mixed cables, and is prohibited from accessing DS/DT models (not subject to global STO control).

Local STO (DS/DT models only): Independently controls a single driver through the X6 interface, suitable for single axis safety requirements (such as door control interlocking), requires external PELV level 24V power supply, response time ≤ 10ms, STO status output through X3 (for information feedback only, not for safety interlocking).

(2) STO security features

STO Structure ISO 13849-1 IEC 62061 MTTFd (year) PFH (1/h) SFF (%)

AKD-C+1 × AKD-N (global) PLd/CAT3 SIL2 ≥ 100 2.99E-08 97.08

MKD-C+14 × AKD-N (global) PLd/CAT3 SIL2 ≥ 100 1.86E-08 94.20

1 × AKD-N-DS/DT (local) PLd/CAT3 SIL2 ≥ 100 2.90E-08 97.12

(3) Usage restrictions

Prohibited for use in elevator drives, ship/marine environments, explosive environments, and corrosive/conductive dust environments.

STO only cuts off the motor torque and does not provide electrical isolation. During maintenance, it is necessary to disconnect the main power supply and wait for the capacitor to discharge.

An additional mechanical brake is required for the vertical axis, and the motor must be reduced to zero speed and the driver disabled before STO activation.

AKD ®  Servo driver CANopen communication

CANopen Communication Fundamentals and Hardware Configuration

(1) CAN Bus hardware interface and settings

Interface definition: Two 6-pin RJ-12 terminals, X12 (CAN input) and X13 (CAN output), are used, with clear pin functions. Pin3 is CANH, Pin4 is CANL, Pin2 is shielding layer, Pin5 is GND, and Pin1 and Pin6 are used to activate the built-in 132 Ω terminal resistor (only devices at both ends of the bus need to be enabled).

Key parameter configuration

Baud rate: Supports fixed baud rates of 125/250/500/1000 kBit/s and automatic detection mode, set through parameter FBUS.PARAM01 or the driver front panel rotary switch (S1=9, S2 corresponds to 0-4). The automatic detection mode requires the driver to listen to valid CAN frames on the bus and match the bit time.

Node address: Set by the S1 (MSB) and S2 (LSB) rotary switches on the front panel of the driver, with an address range of 1-127, and associated with the IP address (such as S1=4, S2=5 corresponding to CAN address 45, IP address 192.168.0.45), which can be separated from the rotary switch configuration through WorkBench.

Terminal resistor: The AKD at both ends of the bus needs to activate the built-in terminal resistor, which can be short circuited to X13 terminals Pin1 and Pin6 using an optional terminal plug (P-AKD-CAN-TERM). Non terminal devices need to disconnect the terminal resistor to avoid signal reflection.

Cable requirements: Shielded twisted pair cables with characteristic impedance of 100-120 Ω must be used, and the maximum cable length varies with the baud rate (10m at 1000 kBit/s, 70m at 500 kBit/s, 115m at 250 kBit/s). The cable capacitance must be ≤ 60 nF/km, the lead loop resistance must be ≤ 159.8 Ω/km, and the shielding layer must be reliably grounded to ensure EMC performance.

(2) CANopen core communication protocol

Communication Object (COB): CANopen communication is based on an 11 bit COB-ID to identify the communication object, with priority determined by the ID. The core objects include:

Network Management Object (NMT): COB-ID=0, used for node start/stop, communication reset (such as resetting nodes with cs=129, starting nodes with cs=1).

Synchronization Object (SYNC): The default COB-ID is 0x80, providing a periodic clock for the bus and supporting multi axis synchronous motion. COB-ID can be modified through object 1005h, and the communication cycle period (in μ s) can be defined through object 1006h.

Emergency Object (EMCY): High priority event trigger object, COB-ID=0x80+node address, containing 2-byte error code, 1-byte error register, and 1-byte error category, used to report drive failures (such as overvoltage and overcurrent).

Service Data Object (SDO): Used to access object dictionaries, supports parameter reading and writing (such as downloading motor parameters and reading fault history through SDO), uses acknowledgment communication, and includes protocols such as initiating download/upload, segment transfer, and terminating transfer.

Process Data Object (PDO): used for real-time data interaction, divided into receiving PDO (RXPDO, master station → driver, such as control word, target speed) and transmitting PDO (TXPDO, driver → master station, such as status word, actual position), supporting three transmission methods: event triggered, time triggered, and synchronous triggered.

Data types: Define unsigned integers (UNSIGNED8/16/32, etc.), signed integers (INTEGER 8/16/32, etc.), mixed data types (STRUCT/ARRAY), and extended data types (OCTET_STRING/VIIBLE_STRING), with transmission using “low order first” (Intel format) to ensure multi device data compatibility.

Object Dictionary and Core Function Configuration

(1) Object Dictionary Classification and Key Objects

The object dictionary is the core of CANopen communication, which is divided into DS301 standard objects (1000h-1FFFh), manufacturer specific objects (2000h-3FFFh), and DS402 driver sub protocol objects (6000h-6FFFh) according to their functions. The key objects are as follows:

DS301 standard object

1000h (device type): Identify the device as a servo drive (DS402 sub protocol), default value 0x00020192, read-only.

1001h (Error Register): A 1-byte register, where bit 0 represents a general error, bit 1 represents a current error, bit 2 represents a voltage error, and bit 3 represents a temperature error, used to quickly locate the type of fault.

1003h (predefined error field): Array type, stores the last 10 emergency error records, Subindex 0 represents the number of errors, Subindex 1-10 stores specific error codes.

1400h-1403h (RXPDO communication parameters): Define the COB-ID (default 0x200+node address, etc.) and transmission type (such as 0xFF for event triggering) of RXPDO.

1600h-1603h (RXPDO mapping parameters): Configure RXPDO data content, default RXPDO1 mapping control word (6040h), customizable mapping target position (607Ah), target velocity (60FFh), etc.

1800h-1803h (TXPDO communication parameters): Define the COB-ID of TXPDO (default 0x180+node address, etc.), disable time (to avoid bus overload), and event timer.

1A00h-1A03h (TXPDO mapping parameters): Configure TXPDO data content, default TXPDO1 mapping status word (6041h), customizable mapping actual position (6064h), actual speed (606Ch), etc.

DS402 driver sub protocol object

6040h (control word): 16 bit control word, bit 0 controls “on/off”, bit 2 controls “quick stop”, bit 3 controls “operation enable”, bit 7 controls “fault reset”, used to drive state machine switching.

6041h (Status Word): A 16 bit status word, with bit 0 indicating “ready to start”, bit 1 indicating “on”, bit 2 indicating “operation enabled”, and bit 3 indicating “fault”, used to provide feedback on the current status of the driver.

6060h (Operation Mode): Set the driver operation mode, supporting trajectory position mode (01h), trajectory speed mode (03h), trajectory torque mode (04h), zero calibration mode (06h), interpolation position mode (07h), etc., and switch modes when the motor is at zero speed.

607Ah (target position): a 32-bit integer, the target position setting value in trajectory position mode, supports absolute/relative position control, and the unit is defined by the gear ratio (6091h) and feed in constant (6092h).

6064h (actual position value): 32-bit integer, feedback driver actual position, resolution can be adjusted through object 608Fh (position encoder resolution).

6098h (zeroing method): an 8-bit integer, defining the zeroing method (such as -7 for negative direction zeroing input and feedback zeroing, 8 for positive direction reference switch zeroing), which needs to be used in conjunction with zeroing velocity (6099h) and zeroing acceleration (609Ah).

Manufacturer specific object

2001h (System Fault): Array type, storing the last 10 system fault numbers, Subindex 1-10 corresponds to DRV.FAULTRA1-DRV.FAULTRA10, read-only.

2011h (DRV. RUNTIME): A 32-bit unsigned integer that records drive runtime in seconds and is read-only.

20A4h (Latch Control Register): A 16 bit register that controls the monitoring enable of the latch (such as bit 0 enabling the rising edge of external latch 1) and supports position capture function.

345Ah (brake control): array type, Subindex 1 controls the brake command (0=hold brake, 1=release), Subindex 2 provides feedback on the brake status, supports direct control of the brake via fieldbus, and it should be noted that in case of a fault, the driver will take over the brake logic again.

(2) Example of Core Function Configuration

PDO configuration: Taking “controlling motor speed through PDO” as an example, it is necessary to first disable unused PDO to reduce bus load, then configure RXPDO to map target speed (60FFh), TXPDO to map actual speed (606Ch), and finally enable PDO and set synchronous triggering mode (such as transmitting PDO once every SYNC message received).

Zeroing configuration: Write the zeroing method (6098h=-7), zeroing speed (6099h Sub1=10000 counts/s), zeroing acceleration (609Ah=1000 counts/s ²) through SDO, and then trigger the zeroing operation through the control word (6040h). After zeroing is completed, set the status word (6041h) bit 12 to 1 to indicate successful zeroing.

Trajectory position control: Set the operation mode to Trajectory position mode (6060h=01h), write the target position (607Ah), trajectory velocity (6081h), and trajectory acceleration (6083h) through RXPDO, trigger control word bit 4 to start motion, and TXPDO provides real-time feedback on the actual position (6064h) and motion status.

Fault handling and emergency messages

(1) Emergency error codes and fault classification

The manual provides a detailed list of error codes corresponding to CANopen emergency messages, covering categories such as hardware failures, power failures, motor/feedback failures, communication failures, etc. Typical codes are as follows:

Error code, fault type description, remedial measures

0x3210 Power failure F501 DC bus overvoltage reduces load deceleration rate, check regeneration resistor connection

0x3220 power failure F502 DC bus undervoltage check input power stability, troubleshooting loose wiring

0x4310 Temperature Fault F235 Drive Heat Sink Overheats, Clean Heat Dissipation Channel, Check Fan Operation Status, Reduce Load

0x7380 Feedback Fault F402 Feedback 1 Analog Signal Amplitude Fault Check Feedback Cable Wiring, Replace Feedback Equipment

0x8480 Motor Fault F302 Motor Overspeed Increase Speed Threshold (VL.THRESH), Optimize Speed Loop Parameters

0xFF02 current fault F529 exceeds Iu current offset limit check current sensor, recalibrate current loop

(2) Troubleshooting process

Identify fault codes: Obtain error codes by reading the DRV.FAULTRAS command through the driver panel (dual 7-segment screen displaying “F+code”, such as F501), LED indicator light (red flashing=fault), or WorkBench software.

Identify the cause of the fault: According to the “CANopen Emergency Messages and Error Codes” section of the manual, match the fault type corresponding to the code (such as power supply, feedback, temperature), and investigate the hardware wiring, parameter configuration, and environmental conditions (such as temperature and load).

Implement remedial measures:

Wiring faults (such as feedback disconnection): After power failure, unplug the cable and confirm the pin correspondence (refer to the attached wiring diagram).

Parameter type faults (such as bus overvoltage): Adjust parameters through SDO (such as reducing deceleration rate), save and restart the drive.

Hardware faults (such as power level faults): If restarting is ineffective, contact technical support to return to the factory for repair.

Clear fault: Clear the fault by controlling bit 7 (fault reset) or DRV.CLRFAULTS command, confirm that the fault is eliminated, and then re enable the drive.

AKD ®  Servo drive fault card

Basic Information

Scope of application: This fault card is applicable to Kollmorgen AKD series servo drives (hardware revision E), covering standard and AKD-T models (supporting BASIC program function). It provides a detailed list of fault/warning codes, causes, remedies, and drive responses, and is the core reference document for troubleshooting.

Version iteration: The document has undergone 13 revisions (A-M version), with the latest M version (November 2020) updating code descriptions such as F470 (feedback 3 fault) and F583/n583 (Hall effect sorting error). Historical versions have added key fault entries such as F314 (motor phase loss), F587 (full AC input phase loss), and F634 (failure of regenerator test).

Supporting tools: Fault information can be viewed through the driver panel display (single/dual 7-segment screen), LED indicator lights (screenless models), or WorkBench software. It supports reading the fault list through the DRV.FAULTRAS/DRV.Warning commands, which can be called by external controllers/HMIs to obtain information.

Basic explanation of faults and warnings

(1) Indicator type and display rules

Equipment configuration fault/warning indication display logic

The left side of the dual 7-segment display shows “F” (fault) or “n” (warning), and the right side displays a 3-digit code (such as F101, n107) to prioritize the highest priority fault. When there are multiple faults, they are displayed in turn

Single 7-segment display flashes in the order of “F/n+code” (such as “F” first, then “1”, “0”, “1”), following the same dual screen logic. The complete code needs to be identified through the flashing sequence

Only the LED indicator light flashing red indicates a fault, while flashing yellow indicates a warning. WorkBench needs to be connected to view the specific code

(2) Drive fault response type

Controlled shutdown: Slow down the motion to zero speed (parameter CS.VTHRESH/CS-TO defines threshold), then disable the power level, suitable for non emergency faults (such as F121 zero error, F438 position following error).

Immediately disable power level (coasting stop): Cut off the motor power directly and allow the motor to coast freely to a stop, suitable for hardware failures (such as F101 firmware incompatibility, F201 built-in RAM damage).

Dynamic braking: By short circuiting the motor phase to slow down the load, it is suitable for dangerous faults (such as F302 overspeed, F404 illegal Hall state), and attention should be paid to the mechanical stress during the braking process.

Extended response (AKD-C central power supply): In addition to the driver’s own response, it will also disconnect the power fault relay, remove the global enable signal, and even cut off the logical voltage of the device string (such as F545 device string overcurrent).

Core fault classification and typical codes

(1) Hardware and firmware failures (F100-F299)

1. Firmware and FPGA related

F101 (firmware incompatible): The installed firmware does not match the hardware of the drive, and compatible firmware needs to be loaded (e.g. UCB1V2 label model requires firmware ≥ 4.0.0).

F103/F104 (FPGA damage): The resident/running FPGA detects a software malfunction, and restarting is ineffective. Technical support should be contacted, and it may be necessary to return to the factory for repair.

N101/n102 (FPGA version exception): The laboratory version FPGA or minor version does not match the firmware, and an official compatible FPGA version must be loaded.

2. Memory and hardware failures

F105/F106 (NV memory error): Non volatile memory flag/data corruption, reset default parameters through WorkBench loading, F106 is normal after firmware download (fault needs to be cleared and parameters saved).

F201-F203 (RAM/code integrity failure): Internal/external RAM is damaged or FPGA register access is incorrect, restarting is ineffective and the driver needs to be replaced.

F234-F243 (temperature sensor malfunction): The sensor is at ultra-high temperature (F-level) or ultra-low temperature (F-level). Check the ventilation of the cabinet and clean the heat dissipation channel.

(2) Motor and feedback faults (F300-F499)

1. Motor related

F301/n301 (motor overheating): The motor temperature exceeds the threshold. Check the ambient temperature, radiator installation, reduce load or optimize the motion curve.

F302 (overspeed): If the motor speed exceeds VL.THRESH, it is necessary to increase the threshold or decrease the speed command, and dynamic braking will be triggered in emergency situations.

F304/n304 (motor current feedback): Exceeding the maximum motor power, check if the load is stuck and if the current limit is correct, and optimize the motion configuration by reducing acceleration.

F314 (motor phase loss): The motor phase wire is not connected correctly. Check the AKD motor connector wiring (if the U/V/W phase is loose), disable the power level, and repair it.

2. Feedback related

F401 (Invalid Feedback Type): Feedback type not connected or selected incorrectly. Check the wiring of the main feedback (X10 interface) and confirm that the feedback type (such as EnDat, BiSS, rotary transformer) is consistent with the parameter configuration.

F404 (Illegal Hall State): The Hall sensor returns 111/000 (the legal state is 001/010/011/100/101), check if the Hall wiring is broken or has poor contact, and trigger dynamic braking protection.

F438/n438 (position following error): The actual position exceeds the maximum allowable deviation. Check if the load has increased, if the feedback commutation setting is correct, and adjust the servo gain or position deviation threshold.

F470 (Feedback 3 Fault): The third level feedback (X9 interface) is not connected or communication is abnormal. Check FB3.FAULTRA for detailed information, repair the wiring or replace the feedback device.

(3) Power supply and power level faults (F500-F599)

1. Bus voltage related

F501/n501 (Bus Overvoltage): The bus voltage exceeds the threshold, often due to high regenerative energy of the load. It is necessary to reduce the load, optimize the deceleration curve, or increase the regenerative resistance capacity.

F502 (bus undervoltage): If the bus voltage is below the threshold, check if the input power supply is stable, check if the power supply wiring is loose or if there is a power supply fault, and trigger a controlled shutdown.

F503 (Bus capacitor overload): Connect the three-phase driver to a single-phase input or ultra single-phase load, confirm the power phase wiring (L1/L2/L3), and replace the matching power supply.

2. Power level and regeneration faults

F519 (short circuit in regeneration circuit): The regeneration resistor or IGBT is short circuited. It is necessary to disconnect the power supply and check the resistance wiring. Contact technical support to replace the power components.

F521/n521 (regeneration circuit over power): The power of the regeneration resistor is insufficient. Replace it with a larger capacity resistor or enable DC bus sharing, and disable power level protection equipment.

F525 (output overcurrent): If the current exceeds the peak value of the driver, check if the motor is short circuited and if there is a feedback fault. Urgently disable the power level to prevent hardware damage.

F531 (power level fault): Power level hardware fault, restart is ineffective and the driver needs to be replaced, which is a fatal fault.

(4) Fieldbus and communication failure (F600-F799)

F602 (Safety Torque Off, STO): Trigger the STO function, confirm safety conditions, and then power on again, in accordance with functional safety specifications (such as EN ISO 13849).

F702/n702 (fieldbus communication disconnected): All fieldbus communication is lost. Check the X11 interface wiring (such as EtherCAT, CANopen), host settings, and trigger controlled shutdown.

F706/n706 (fieldbus set point loss): The host stops sending set points due to timeout. Check the stability of the bus connection, reduce the bus load, or adjust the timeout parameter.

(5) AKD-T exclusive fault (F800-F999)

AKD-T supports running BASIC programs, and many faults are related to program execution. The typical code is as follows:

F801 (divided by zero): There is a division by zero operation in the program, modify the code to avoid invalid calculations.

F802 (Stack Overflow): Insufficient program stack memory, optimize code structure, reduce nested calls.

F824/F825 (mode incompatible): DRV.OPMODE needs to be set to 2 (position mode), DRV.CMDSOURCE needs to be set to 5 (program command), adjust the parameters and restart the program.

F901 (Too Many Cams): The number of cams defined in the program exceeds the upper limit, reduce cam configuration or optimize motion logic.

Key fault troubleshooting process

Identification code: Obtain the fault code through panel display or WorkBench, confirm the code type (F/n) and priority.

Identify the cause: Based on the corresponding entries on the fault card, investigate the hardware wiring (such as feedback, power supply, motor phase lines), parameter configuration (such as feedback type, current limit), and environmental conditions (temperature, ventilation).

Execute remedial measures:

Wiring faults (such as F314 motor phase loss, F404 Hall wire breakage): Repair the wiring after power failure, and confirm the correctness of the connection before re enabling.

Parameter faults (such as F105 NV memory error, F501 bus overvoltage): Reset parameters or adjust thresholds through WorkBench, save and restart the drive.

Hardware failures (such as F201 RAM damage, F531 power level failure): If restarting is ineffective, please contact technical support and return to the factory for repair if necessary.

Clear the fault: Use the DRV.CLRFAULTS command or WorkBench button to clear the fault, confirm that the fault is eliminated, and then re enable the drive.

SERVOSTAR ®  CD series servo amplifier

Basic Information

Product positioning: SERVOSTAR ®  The CD series is an industrial grade servo amplifier launched by Danaher Motion, covering three models: Cx03 (3A continuous), Cx06 (6A continuous), and Cx10 (10A continuous), suitable for high-precision motor control scenarios. It has passed UL/cUL 508C certification (US and Canadian markets) and CE certification (EU market), and needs to be integrated into industrial equipment for use.

Core support: The document comes with a CD-ROM, which includes a technical manual (in PDF format), MOTIONLINK debugging software, and Adobe Acrobat Reader installation program; Hardware needs to be equipped with motors, feedback devices (encoders/rotary transformers), optional regenerative resistors (ERH-26), and EMI filters (such as Corcom F7202A, Schaffner FN258 series).

Version Description: The document version is M-SS-017-07 Rev C. The Series 5 (Version 2) model is not compatible with the PA-LM bus module, and some features (such as extended I/O interface C9) are only supported by Series 5; The firmware needs to be version 4.0.0 or higher (UCB1V2 label model), and it must be paired with a compatible version of IGNITE upgrade tool.

Safety and compliance requirements

(1) Personnel qualifications and operating standards

Qualification requirements: Only professionals with experience in motor installation and commissioning are allowed to operate, and they must be familiar with standards such as IEC 364/CENELEC HD 384, DIN VDE 0100, and national safety regulations.

Core Warning:

Risk of electric shock: During equipment operation, there is a 230VAC input and a 430VDC bus voltage. After power failure, there is residual dangerous voltage in the capacitor. It is necessary to wait for at least 10 minutes and measure the voltage (<50V) before operation; Reliable grounding is necessary (low impedance grounding, otherwise personal safety cannot be guaranteed).

Electrostatic protection: Contains electrostatic sensitive components. Before operation, it is necessary to release human static electricity and avoid contact with high insulation materials (such as chemical fibers and plastic films). The equipment should be placed on a conductive surface.

High temperature and mechanical risks: During operation, the temperature of the heat sink can reach 80 ℃ (176 ° F) to avoid burns; The start-up process may cause the motor to rotate, and it is necessary to ensure that there are no personnel/obstacles in the hazardous area.

(2) Compliance standards

Key standards applicable to certification/instruction scope

UL/cUL 508C specifies design requirements for power filtering, grounding, insulation, etc. to prevent fires, electric shock, and personal injury in the US and Canadian markets

CE certification EU market EMC directive (89/336/EEC): compliant with EN 55011 (radiated/conducted emissions), EN 61000-4 series (immunity); Low Voltage Directive (73/23/EEC): Complies with EN 50178, EN 60204

Global mechanical safety requires equipment to comply with EN 60204 (Mechanical Electrical Equipment) and EN 292 (Mechanical Safety), and equipment manufacturers need to complete risk assessments

Installation and wiring

(1) Mechanical installation

Installation requirements: Vertically fixed to the conductive grounding backplate (metal contact ensures EMC performance), with reserved heat dissipation space around (left-right spacing ≥ 12.7mm, up-down spacing ≥ 63.5mm); Secure with M4 (or 10-32) screws, torque 20 lb in (2.26 Nm).

Dimensions and Weight: Cx03 measures 67.3 × 163 × 244mm (width × height × depth) and weighs 1.61kg; Cx06 measures 83.3 × 163 × 244mm and weighs 2.22kg; Cx10 measures 99.1 × 163 × 256mm and weighs 2.69kg.

(2) Electrical wiring

Grounding and bonding:

Safe grounding: All components (amplifiers, filters, motors) need to be connected to a “star shaped grounding point”. It is recommended to use copper bars or flat braided wires (to reduce high-frequency impedance) to avoid relying on a single wire (inductance 8nH/inch, which affects the filtering effect).

Shielding bonding: The shielding layer of the motor line and feedback line should be exposed near the amplifier and connected to the backplane through metal clamps (such as Phoenix Contact products); If metal conduits are not used for power supply incoming lines, shielded cables must be used and reliably bonded.

Key interface wiring:

Power input: 115/230VAC (± 10%), single/three-phase optional (Cx0x200 only single-phase), wire diameter 14-12AWG (2.5-4mm ²), external fuse required (10AT for Cx03, 15AT for Cx06, 22-27AT for Cx10).

Motor and Feedback: The length of the motor wire (14AWG/2.5mm ²) is recommended to be ≤ 25m. The feedback wire (encoder/rotary transformer) needs to be shielded with twisted pair. The C2 interface (feedback) pin corresponds to different functions of the resolver/encoder/sine encoder (such as the resolver sine signal connected to Pin1-2, and the encoder A/B phase connected to Pin1-2/4-5).

The control I/O: C3 interface includes ± 10V differential analog input (Pin2-3), 24V remote enable (Pin7-8), fault relay output (Pin5-6, 1A/24VDC) and analog output (Pin13, monitoring speed/current, ± 10V/12 bit resolution), wire diameter 18-22AWG (0.3-0.75mm ²), and it is recommended to use cold pressed terminals.

EMI filtering:

Input filtering: EMI filters (such as Cx03 with Corcom F7202A and Cx10 with Schaffner FN258-16/07) need to be installed at the power input end. The filters should be installed tightly against the input end (distance ≤ 30cm, and over distance should be connected with flat braided wire), and the shell should be in contact with the backplate metal (remove oil paint).

Motor filtering: Not mandatory, but it is recommended to add filtering for long motor wires (>25m) or non-metallic cabinets to reduce differential mode noise coupling.

Debugging and troubleshooting

(1) Debugging process

Software installation: Install MOTIONLINK from the CD-ROM or official website (www.danahermotion. com), which supports Windows 95/98/NT 4.0/2000 systems and requires configuration of a serial port (COM1-COM4, baud rate matching DIP switch).

Quick Startup Wizard:

Motor configuration: Select the motor model (such as GOLDLINE series) from the database, click “To Drive” to download parameters. For unknown motors, manually enter parameters such as MBEMF (back electromotive force) and MENCRES (feedback resolution).

Feedback configuration: Select the feedback type (encoder/rotary transformer), confirm the C2 interface wiring, and the rotary transformer needs to perform a zeroing program.

Enable and Test: Connect the 24V enable power supply (C3 Pin7-8), and the software executes the “EN” command to enable the driver. Test the motor rotation through the “Jog” mode and monitor the speed/current (MOTIONLINK monitoring interface).

Firmware upgrade: Series 5 models do not support it. For older models, DIP switch 8/10 needs to be set to 1, enter Ember mode, load the firmware (Lccd_ xxx. emb) using IGNITE tool, and restore the switch to 0 after upgrading.

(2) Troubleshooting

Fatal malfunction (requiring power outage/enable reset):

Overheating (t): Check if the cooling fan and load are overloaded, reset after cooling;

Overvoltage (o): Reduce deceleration rate and check the connection of the regeneration resistor;

Overcurrent (P): Check for motor short circuit and power level fault, and power off reset is required;

Feedback fault (r0-r13): Check for broken feedback cables (such as r1=rotary transformer broken, r4=encoder A/B broken), reconnect and reset.

Non fatal malfunction (enable reset):

Undervoltage (u): Check the input voltage and eliminate power supply faults;

Motor overheating (H): Cool the motor and check the thermostat wiring (C2 Pin13/25);

Overspeed (J/J1): Adjust VOSPD (overspeed threshold) or VLIM (speed limit) to optimize the tuning parameters of the speed loop.

No message fault (only displayed in the status bar):

Limit trigger (L1/L2/L3): Hardware limit switch open circuit (C3 IN1/IN2), check mechanical limit or wiring;

Memory failure (I/c): RAM/EPROM test failed, hardware replacement is required;

Watchdog (≡): Software malfunction, contact manufacturer technical support.

It is compatible with various brushless motors.

Version compatibility: The document has been revised to version 2 of 2003, corresponding to firmware version 1.1.0, and needs to be paired with MOTIONLINK 4.4.3 software (the two must match the version and cannot be mixed); Historical versions include version 1 from 2001 (firmware 0.1.2).

Core identification: The product model includes current level (03=3A continuous/9A peak, 06=6A continuous/18A peak, 09=10A continuous/20A peak), logic power mode (250=line generation, 260=external 24V power supply), and feedback type (E=encoder, R=rotary transformer, rotary transformer only supports external 24V logic power supply).

Product Core Features

(1) Basic functions

Control mode: Supports speed loop (OPMODE=1, ± 10V analog given), torque/current loop (OPMODE=3, ± 10V analog given), PWM switching frequency up to 16kHz.

Feedback support: Incremental encoder (A/B/Z+Hall, A/B+Hall), rotary transformer (requires external 24V logic power supply), Hall only (sine commutation/six step commutation), supports encoder equivalent output (EEO, orthogonal signal, up to 3MHz).

Power and protection: continuous current 3/6/10A, peak current is 3 times the continuous value; Equipped with overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent, overtemperature (driver/motor), feedback disconnection, and I ² t turn back protection (to prevent driver overheating).

(2) Hardware and Design

Isolation design: Electronic components are fully isolated, and the logic power supply can be generated by circuit or external 24V power supply, with strong anti-interference ability.

Communication interface: Only supports RS-232 serial port (for PC debugging or Personality Module configuration), baud rate 9600/19200bps (set by DIP switch 6), no extended communication interface (different from the full version SERVOSTAR CD).

I/O configuration: C3 interface includes differential analog input (ANIN1, 12 bit AD, 250 μ s/62.5 μ s sampling rate), remote enable input (REMOTE, 12-24V optocoupler isolation), fault relay output (RELAY, configurable “driver ready”/”driver enable” mode), 2 hardware limit switch inputs (only available for speed loop), and 1 analog output (ANOUT, 8-bit, monitoring speed/current/speed error/current command).

System startup and debugging

(1) Hardware and software requirements

PC configuration: IBM compatible (Pentium and above), 16MB memory, Windows 95/98/NT 4.0 (SP3)/2000, CD-ROM drive, 1 serial port (COM1-COM4).

Software installation: Automatically run (or manually execute “D: AUTORUN. EXE”) through the MOTIONLINK installation disc, with the program path being “Start – Programs – SERVOSTAR MOTIONLINK”.

(2) Debugging process

Communication settings: The RS-232 protocol has 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no checksum, and the baud rate matches the DIP switch settings; The parameters are stored in EEPROM (non-volatile), and after modification, the “SAVE” command must be executed to save them to EEPROM, otherwise they will be lost due to power failure.

Quick Startup Wizard:

Driver configuration: Select bus voltage (VBUS) and monitor DIP switch status in real-time (address, baud rate, etc.);

Motor configuration: Select the model (such as GOLDLINE XT series) from the MOTIONLINK motor database, click “To Drive” to download parameters, and contact the manufacturer for unknown motors;

Mode configuration: Select control mode (speed/torque), torque mode does not require tuning, speed mode requires adjustment of PDFF parameters (VF/VD/COMPFILT);

Backup and Startup: Parameters can be saved as SSV file (for multi drive configuration), enter the main interface after completion.

Driver Enable: Must meet the requirement of “ACTION=READY × REMOTE”, where “READY=DRIVE OK × SWEN” (DRIVE OK=no fault, SWEN=software enable, REMOTE=hardware enable), and the decimal point in the status bar should remain lit after enabling.

Feedback system and control loop

(1) Feedback type details

Key parameter limitations and characteristics of feedback types

Incremental encoder resolution MENCRES (number of lines), can be scaled by ENCOUTO (1/2/4/8/16 times), cable length ≤ 15m, maximum input frequency 3MHz (before orthogonal)/12MHz (after orthogonal), supports wire breakage detection

The fixed resolution of the rotary transformer is 4096, and the RDRES automatically adjusts with speed (such as RDRES=1665536 counts/revolution when VLIM<1500RPM). The cable length is ≤ 22.9m (recommended shielded twisted pair), and the accuracy is composed of R/D converter (4 arcminutes), mechanical installation (8 arcminutes), etc. The total error is ≤ 19 arcminutes

Only Hall sine commutation (MENCTYPE=5) or six step commutation (DIP switch 2 set to ON, MENCTYPE=10) relies on Hall signals to generate commutation waveforms, which are updated once per Hall switch, with low accuracy and suitable for simple scenarios

(2) Control loop principle

Current loop: fully digital pole configuration, sampling rate of 16kHz (62.5 μ s), converts current command into three-phase PWM signal, includes adaptive gain compensation for nonlinearity, monitors A/C phase current (IA/IC) and calculates equivalent current (I).

Reversing loop: With a frequency update of 16kHz, it converts single-phase signals into three-phase position modulated sine waves and supports the patented technology of “torque angle lead”. It needs to be aligned with the back electromotive force of the motor (feedback alignment is crucial).

Speed loop: Sampling rate 4kHz, using PDFF (pseudo differential feedforward) algorithm, calculating actual speed through feedback, filtering the difference between the actual speed and the instruction speed, and sending it to the commutation loop, suitable for high-precision speed control.

Fault handling and maintenance

(1) Fault classification and troubleshooting

Fatal malfunction (driver disabled, some require power-off reset):

Overheating (t): Overload, fan failure, or power level damage, reset after cooling;

Overvoltage (o): During the regeneration process, the bus voltage is too high. Check the braking resistance or deceleration curve;

Overcurrent (P): Power level surge current, requiring power-off reset, checking for motor short circuit or power level fault;

Feedback fault (r1/r2/r4/r6): Rotary transformer/encoder disconnected or illegal Hall combination, check the feedback cable.

Non fatal fault (disabled drive, can be reset by enabling):

Undervoltage (u): Input voltage too low or power failure, check power supply;

Motor overheating (H): The motor thermostat detects overheating (PTC>12.4k Ω or NTC<0.5k Ω) and needs to cool down before resetting;

Overspeed (J/J1): If the speed exceeds VOSPD (or 1.8 × VLIM), check the speed setting or tuning parameters.

No message fault (only displayed in the status bar):

Limit switch (L1/L2/L3): Hardware limit trigger (CW/CCW switch open circuit), check the limit wiring;

Watchdog (≡): Software malfunction, need to contact the manufacturer;

RAM/EPROM malfunction (I/c): Memory test failed, hardware replacement is required.
