SWM24 Hardware Manual
Choosing a Power Supply
When choosing a power supply, there are many things to consider. If you are manufacturing equipment that will be sold
to others, you probably want a supply with all the safety agency approvals. If size and weight are an issue use a switching
supply.
You must also decide what size of power supply (in terms of voltage and current) is needed for your application.
Voltage
e SWM24 is designed to give optimum performance between 24 and 70 volts DC. Choosing the voltage depends on
the performance needed and Drive+Motor heating that is acceptable and/or does not cause a drive over-temperature.
Higher voltages will give higher speed performance but will cause the Drive+Motor to operate at higher temperatures.
Using power supplies with voltage outputs that are near the drive maximum may reduce the operational duty-cycle signicantly. See the chart below to determine thermal performance at dierent power supply voltages
If you choose an unregulated power supply, make sure the no load voltage of the supply does not exceed the drive’s
maximum input voltage specication.

Current
e maximum supply current required by the SWM24 is shown in the chart below with dierent power supply voltage
inputs. You will note in the chart that the Drive+Motor does not draw as much current as the motor itself. at’s because
the SWM24 uses switching ampliers, converting a high voltage and low current into lower voltage and higher current.
e more the power supply voltage exceeds the motor voltage, the less current you’ll need from the power supply.
Also note that the current draw is signicantly dierent at higher speeds depending on the torque load to the motor.
Estimating your current needs may require a good analysis of the load the motor will encounter.

Connecting the Power Supply
If you need information about choosing a power supply, please read “Choosing a Power Supply” located above in this
manual.
e SWM24 contains an internal fuse that connects to the power supply + terminal. is fuse is not user replaceable. If
you want to install a user serviceable fuse in your system install a 5 amp fast acting fuse in line with the + power supply
lead.
Be careful not to reverse the wires. Reverse connection may open the internal fuse on your driver and void
your warranty.
Installation Requirements for CE Compliance
In order to meet the EMC Directive of CE, a line lter must be installed between AC power and the DC power supply as
shown below.

If you plan to use a regulated power supply you may encounter a problem with regeneration. If you rapidly decelerate a
load from a high speed, much of the kinetic energy of that load is transferred back to the power supply. is can trip the
over-voltage protection of a switching power supply, causing it to shut down. We oer the RC-050 “regeneration clamp”
to solve this problem. If in doubt, buy an RC-050 for your rst installation. If the “regen” LED on the RC-050 never ashes,
you don’t need the clamp.
SWM24 Hardware Manual
RC-050 Regen Clamp
+5V Keep-Alive Feature:
+5Volts can be fed to the +5V terminal to keep the logic alive when the DC bus voltage is removed. is is very useful
when an encoder is present, as the position of the system is then known when the DC bus is re-applied. An internal voltage fault will have to be cleared and the motor re-enabled when the DC bus is re-applied. A .4 Amp or larger supply is
required for the keep-alive supply.

Connecting the SWM24 Communications
e SWM24 is available with two types of serial communication: RS-232 (SWM24x-xAx) or Ethernet. Each type requires
a dierent hardware connection for interface to a PC or other host system. Below are descriptions of how to interface
the SWM24 to a PC.
Connecting to a PC Using RS-232
• Locate your computer within 8 feet of the Drive+Motor.
• Your drive was shipped with a communication cable. Plug the large end into the serial port of your PC and
the small end into the RS-232 jack (M12 connector) on your drive. Secure the cable to the PC with the screws
on the sides.
NOTE: If the PC does not have an RS-232 serial port, a USB Serial Converter will be needed.
e RS-232 circuitry does not have any extra electrical “hardening” and care should be taken when connecting to the RS-
232 port as hot plugging could result in circuit failure.
Do not plug or unplug the RS-232 connection while power is applied to the drive. is is known as “hot
plugging” and should be avoided.

SWM24 Hardware Manual
Connecting to a Host Using Ethernet
is process requires three steps
• Physically connect the drive to your network (or directly to the PC)
• Set the drive’s IP address
• Set the appropriate networking properties on your PC.
Note: the following pages are an excerpt from the “eSCL Communication Reference Guide”. For more
information, please read the rest of the guide.
Addresses, Subnets, and Ports
Every device on an Ethernet network must have a unique IP address. In order for two devices to communicate
with each other, they must both be connected to the network and they must have IP addresses that are on the
same subnet. A subnet is a logical division of a larger network. Members of one subnet are generally not able
to communicate with members of another unless they are connected through special network equipment (e.g.
router). Subnets are dened by the choices of IP addresses and subnet masks.
If you want to know the IP address and subnet mask of your PC, select Start…All Programs…Accessories…Com-
mand Prompt. en type “ipcong” and press Enter. You should see something like this:
If your PC’s subnet mask is set to 255.255.255.0, a common seing known as a Class C subnet mask, then your
machine can only talk to another network device whose IP address matches yours in the rst three octets. (e
numbers between the dots in an IP address are called octets.) For example, if your PC is on a Class C subnet
and has an IP address of 192.168.0.20, it can talk to a device at 192.168.0.40, but not one at 192.168.1.40. If
you change your subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 (Class B) you can talk to any device whose rst two octets match
yours. Be sure to ask your system administrator before doing this. Your network may be segmented for a reason.
Your drive’s IP Address is stored internally in nonvolatile memory. e factory default address is 10.10.10.10.
is address can be changed using our ST Congurator soware. See Edit IP Address Table under the Drive
menu.
14
Page 15
920-0068B
SWM24 Hardware Manual
If someone were to change the seing and not write it down or tell anyone (I’m not naming names here, but you
know who I’m talking about) then you will not be able to communicate with your drive. e only way to “recover”
it is to apply power to the SWM24 with the network cable unplugged. e SWM24 will detect this condition and
revert to a recovery address of 10.10.10.10. You may then connect your cable to the network and use ST Congurator to upload and change the stored address (using Edit IP Address Table under the Drive menu).
Your PC, or any other device that you use to communicate with the drive, will also have a unique address.
Use the standard class B subnet mask (i.e. “255.255.0.0”). e mask for the recovery address is the standard class A
(i.e. “255.0.0.0”).
One of the great features of Ethernet is the ability for many applications to share the network at the same time.

Ports are used to direct trac to the right application once it gets to the right IP address. e UDP eSCL port in
our drives is 7775. To send and receive commands using TCP, use port number 7776. You’ll need to know this
when you begin to write your own application. You will also need to choose an open (unused) port number
for your application. Our drive doesn’t care what that is; when the rst command is sent to the drive, the drive
will make note of the IP address and port number from which it originated and direct any responses there. e
drive will also refuse any trac from other IP addresses that is headed for the eSCL port. e rst application to
talk to a drive “owns” the drive. is lock is only reset when the drive powers down.
If you need help choosing a port number for your application, you can nd a list of commonly used port numbers at
One nal note: Ethernet communication can use one or both of two “transport protocols”: UDP and TCP. eSCL
commands can be sent and received using either protocol. UDP is simpler and more ecient than TCP, but TCP
is more reliable on large or very busy networks where UDP packets might occasionally be dropped.
Option 1: Connect a Drive to Your Local Area Network
If you have a spare port on a switch or router and if you are able to set your drive to an IP address that is compatible with your network, and not used by anything else, this is a simple way to get connected. is technique
also allows you to connect multiple drives to your PC. If you are on a corporate network, please check with
your system administrator before connecting anything new to the network. He or she should be able assign you
a suitable address and help you get going.
If you are not sure which addresses are already used on your network, you can nd out using “Angry IP scanner”,

1. On Windows XP, right click on “My Network Places” and select properties. On Windows 7, click Computer.
Scroll down the le pane until you see “Network”. Right click and select properties. Select “Change adapter
seings”
2. You should see an icon for your network interface card (NIC). Right click and select properties.
3. Scroll down until you see “Internet Properties (TCP/IP)”. Select this item and click the Properties buon. On
Windows 7 and Vista, look for “(TCP/IPv4)”
4. If the option “Obtain an IP address automatically” is selected, your PC is geing an IP address and a subnet
mask from the DHCP server. Please cancel this dialog and proceed to the next section of this manual: “Using
DHCP”.
5. If the option “Use the following IP address” is selected, life is good. Change the subnet mask to
“255.255.0.0” and click OK.

Option 2: Connect a Drive Directly to Your PC
When you rst receive your SWM24 from the factory, you will need to do this:
1. Connect one end of a CAT5 Ethernet cable into the LAN card (NIC) on your PC and the other into the drive.
You don’t need a special “crossover cable”; the drive will automatically detect the direct connection and make
the necessary physical layer changes.
2. Set the IP address on the drive to “10.10.10.10”.
3. To set the IP address of your PC:
a. On Windows XP, right click on “My Network Places” and select properties.
b. On Windows 7, click Computer. Scroll down the le pane until you see “Network”. Right click and
4. You should see an icon for your network interface card (NIC). Right click and select properties.
a. Scroll down until you see “Internet Properties (TCP/IP)”. Select this item and click the Properties
buon.
b. On Windows 7 and Vista, look for “(TCP/IPv4)”
5. Select the option “Use the following IP address”. en enter the address “10.10.10.11”. is will give
your PC an IP address that is on the same subnet as the drive. Windows will know to direct any trac
intended for the drive’s IP address to this interface card.
10/31/2013
6. Next, enter the subnet mask as “255.255.255.0”.
7. Be sure to leave “Default gateway” blank. is will prevent your PC from looking for a router on this
subnet.
8. Because you are connected directly to the drive, anytime the drive is not powered on, your PC will
annoy you with a small message bubble in the corner of your screen saying “e network cable is
unplugged.”
19

10/31/2013
Option 3: Use Two Network Interface Cards (NICs)
is technique allows you to keep your PC connected to your LAN, but keeps the drive o the LAN, preventing
possible IP conicts or excessive trac.
1. If you use a desktop PC and have a spare card slot, install a second NIC and connect it directly to the
PC NIC1 NIC2 LAN DRIVE
drive using a CAT5 cable. You don’t need a special “crossover cable”; the drive will automatically detect the direct connection and make the necessary physical layer changes.
2. If you use a laptop and only connect to your LAN using wireless networking, you can use the built-in
RJ45 Ethernet connection as your second NIC.
3. Set the IP address on the drive to “10.10.10.10”.
4. To set the IP address of the second NIC:
a. On Windows XP, right click on “My Network Places” and select properties.
b. On Windows 7, click Computer. Scroll down the le pane until you see “Network”. Right click and
5. You should see an icon for your newly instated NIC. Right click again and select properties.
a. Scroll down until you see “Internet Properties (TCP/IP)”. Select this item and click the Properties
buon.
b. On Windows 7 and Vista, look for “(TCP/IPv4)”
6. Select the option “Use the following IP address”. en enter the address “10.10.10.11”. is will give
your PC an IP address that is on the same subnet as the drive. Windows will know to direct any trac
intended for the drive’s IP address to this interface card.
7. Next, enter the subnet mask as “255.255.255.0”. Be sure to leave “Default gateway” blank. is will
prevent your PC from looking for a router on this subnet.
8. Because you are connected directly to the drive, anytime the drive is not powered on your PC will
annoy you with a small message bubble in the corner of your screen saying “e network cable is
unplugged.”

Analog Input
All SWM24 drives feature an analog input. e input can accept a signal range of 0 to 5 VDC. e drive can be congured to operate at a speed or position that is proportional to the incoming analog signal. Use the
soware to set the signal range, oset, dead-band and lter frequency. e SWM24 provides a +5VDC 50ma output
that can be used to power external devices such as potentiometers. It is not the most accurate supply for reference; for
more precise readings use an external supply that can provide the desired accuracy.

Programmable Output
e SWM24SF and SWM24QF include four “ex I/O” points which can be individually congured to act as digital outputs. e SWM24Q, SWM24S and SWM24IP includes one dedicated digital output. Each output can be set to automatically control a motor brake, to signal a fault condition, to indicate when the motor is moving or to provide an output
frequency proportional to motor speed (tach signal). An output can also be turned on and o by program instructions
like Set Output. An output can be used to drive LEDs, relays and the inputs of other electronic devices like PLCs and
counters. e “OUT+” (collector) and “OUT-” (emier) terminals of the transistor are available at the connector. is allows you to congure the output for current sourcing or sinking.
Diagrams of various connection types follow.
Do not connect the output to more than 30VDC.
e current through the output terminal must not exceed 40ma.

Drive/Motor Heating
Step motors convert electrical power from the driver into mechanical power to move a load. Because step motors are
not perfectly ecient, some of the electrical power turns into heat on its way through the motor. is heating is not so
much dependent on the load being driven but rather the motor speed and power supply voltage. ere are certain
combinations of speed and voltage at which a motor cannot be continuously operated without damage.
We have characterized the SWM24 in our lab and provided curves showing the maximum duty cycle versus speed for
commonly used power supply voltages. Please refer to these curves when planning your application.
Please also keep in mind that a step motor typically reaches maximum temperature aer 30 to 45 minutes of operation.
If you run the motor for one minute then let it sit idle for one minute, that is a 50% duty cycle. Five minutes on and ve
minutes o is also 50% duty. However, one hour on and one hour o has the eect of 100% duty because during the
rst hour the motor will reach full (and possibly excessive) temperature.
e actual temperature of the motor depends on how much heat is conducted, convected or radiated out of it. Our
measurements were made in a 40°C (104°F) environment with the motor mounted to an aluminum plate sized to provide
a surface area consistent with the motor power dissipation. Your results may vary.
