1.2Use as directed
Please observe the chapter "Use as directed” in the setup manual for the servo amplifier.
The PROFIBUS interface serves only for the connection of the servo amplifier to a master with
PROFIBUS connectivity.
The servo amplifiers are components that are built into electrical apparatus or machinery, and can
only be setup and operated as integral components of such apparatus or machinery.
We can only guarantee the conformity of the servo amplifier with the following standards for
industrial areas when the components that we specify are used, and the installation regula
tions are followed:

2.1Installation
2.1.1Safety notes
Install and wire up the equipment only while it is not electrically connected. Make sure that
the control cabinet is safely isolated (lock-out, warning signs etc.).
The individual supply voltages will not be switched on until setup is carried out.
Residual charges in the capacitors can still have dangerous levels several minutes after
switching off the supply voltage. Measure the voltage in the intermediate (DC-link) circuit
and wait until it has fallen below 40V.
Power and control connections can still be live, even though the motor is not rotating.
Install the servo amplifier as described in the installation manual. The wiring for the analog
setpoint input and the positioning interface, as shown in the wiring diagram in the
installation manual, is not required.
Never break any of the electrical connections to the servo amplifier while it is live. This
could result in destruction of the electronics.
Electronic equipment is basically not failure-proof. The user is responsible for ensuring that,
in the event of a failure of the servo amplifier, the drive is set to a state that is safe for both
machinery and personnel, for instance with the aid of a mechanical brake.
Drives with servo amplifiers and PROFIBUS expansion cards are remote-controlled
machines. They can start to move at any time without previous warning. Take appropriate
measures to ensure that the operating and service personnel is aware of this danger.
Implement appropriate protective measures to ensure that any unintended start-up of the
machines cannot result in dangerous situations for personnel or machinery. Software
limit-switches are not a substitute for the hardware limit-switches in the machine.
Because of the internal representation of the position-control parameters, the position
controller can only be operated if the final limit speed of the drive does not exceed:
rotatory
at sinusoidal² commutation: 7500 rpm
at trapezoidal commutation: 12000 rpm.
linear
at sinusoidal² commutation: 4 m/s
at trapezoidal commutation: 6.25 m/s
All the data on resolution, step size, positioning accuracy etc. refer to calculatory values.
Non-linearities in the mechanism (backlash, flexing, etc.) are not taken into account.
If the final limit speed of the motor has to be altered, then all the parameters that were
previously entered for position control and motion blocks must be adapted.

2.1.2Inserting the expansion card (AX2000)
To fit the PROFIBUS expansion card into an AX2000, proceed as follows:
l
Remove the cover of the option slot (see installation manual of the servo amplifier.)
l
Take care that no small items (such as screws) fall into the open option slot.
l
Push the expansion card carefully into the guide rails that are provided, without twi
sting it.
l
Press the expansion card firmly into the slot, until the front cover touches the fixing
lugs. This ensures that the connectors make good contact.
l
Use the screws on the expansion card to secure it in the drive.

2.1.2.2Setup of Station Address and Baud Rate
During setup it makes sense to use the keypad on the front panel to preset the station addresses
for the individual amplifiers (see chapter "Setup" in the installation manual).
After changing the station address you must turn the 24V auxiliary supply for the servo
amplifier off and on again for the new address to take affect.
Possible ways for setup:
l
keypad on the front panel of the servo amplifier (see installation manual)
l
setup software: screen page “CAN / Fieldbus”
l
serial interface with a sequence of ASCII commands:
ADDR nn Þ SAVE Þ COLDSTART (with nn = address)
The Baudrate is defined by the hardware configuration in the master controller. Baudrates up to 12
MBaud are possible. During bus initialization, the master controller sends the amplifier the desired
baud rate.
2.1.2.3Connection technology
Cable selection, cable routing, shielding, bus connector, bus termination and transmission times are
all described in the “Installation guidelines for PROFIBUS-DP/” from PNO, the PROFIBUS User
Organization.

2.1.3Profibus master module setup
2.1.3.1Configuration of the master controller ( e.g. Siemens S7)
The graphics interface makes it very easy to configure the Siemens S7 for the PROFIBUS network.
After you have set up the control layout, configure the interface module that is used as follows: Use
our library file KOLL045D.GSD to configure the Profibus master for the servo amplifier. The follo
wing shows a Siemens PLC. Other machine controllers can also be configured for the BECKHOFF
Profibus expansion card. Open the Hardware catalog and drag the symbol for the corresponding
field unit onto the representation of the bus system. A window opens auto- matically for the general
parameterization of the field unit. Enter the address of the participant here.
-
Next, use the same method as above to drag the module from the Hardware catalog into the box for
the field unit, whereby the 4-word module must lie in Cell 0 and the 6-word module in Cell 1.
Another window opens, in which you can set the parameters for the module.

PROFIBUS for AX2000/250011
Installation / Setup12/05BECKHOFF
2.2.2Important amplifier configuration parameter
The following parameters configure the amplifier for the Profibus interface. They can be set using
the setup software for the amplifier.
EXTWD (PNU 1658)
With this parameter, the observation time (watch dog) for the fieldbus-slot communication can be
set. The observation is only active, if a value higher than 0 is assigned to EXTWD (EXTWD=0,
observation switched off) and the output stage is enabled. If the set time runs out, without the
watchdog-timer being newly triggered by the arrival of a telegram, then the warning n04 (response
monitoring) is generated and the drive is stopped. The amplifier remains ready for operation and the
output stage enabled. Before a new driving command (setpoint) is accepted, this warning must be
deleted (function CLRFAULT or INxMODE=14).
ADDR (PNU 918)
With this command, the node address of the amplifier is set. When the address has been changed,
all parameters should be saved to the EEPROM and the amplifier switched off and on again.
Since the modular structure of the AX2500 as a multi-axis system requires its own addressing,
there is the additional parameter ADDRFB (PNU 2012) for this series, with which a field bus
address different from the internal device address (ADDR) can be defined. As long as ADDRFB =
0, ADDR is the bus address. If ADDRFB > 0, then ADDRFB is the bus address. ADDR is set auto
matically by the AX2500 master module in descending order.
-
AENA (PNU 1606)
With this parameter, the state of the software-enable after switch-on can be defined. The soft
ware-enable allows an external control to enable/disable the output stage. For amplifiers with analog setpoints (OPMODE=1,3) the software-enable is set automatically after switch-on and the devices are ready for operation immediately (if hardware-enable is present). For all others,
software-enable will be set to the value of AENA. The variable AENA also has functionality when
resetting the amplifier after an error (by digital input 1 or the CLRFAULT command). If an error can
be reset by the software, the software-enable is set to the value of AENA after the error is cleared.
In this way the behavior of the amplifier after a software-reset is similar to after the drive is switched
on.
INPT, INPT0 (PNU 1904)
With INPT a delay for the in-position message can be set. With the start of a motion task the
in-position message is deleted and the monitoring of the position is activated after expiration of the
adjusted time. This function is particularly important for positioning procedures within the in-position
window. In this case the in-position message is delayed for a defined time.

BECKHOFF12/05Profile of AX2000/2500
3Profile of AX2000/2500
The PROFIBUS-profile PROFIDRIVE includes the following parameter process-data objects (PPO):
AX2000/2500 only uses the PPO-type 2 (with 4 words PKW-section and 6 words PZD-section). The
PKW-section is used mainly for the transmission of parameters for the servo amplifier, the
PZD-section is used principally for handling motion functions.
The telegram can be divided into two sections or data channels:
1.PKW-section (4 words, Bytes 1 to 8)
2.PZD-section (6 words, Bytes 8 to 20)
The PKW data channel can also be termed the service or parameter channel. The service channel
only uses confirmed communication services, and is used by AX2000/2500 as a parameter channel.
This channel has no real-time capability.
The PZD data channel can also be termed the process data channel. The process data channel
uses unconfirmed communication services. The response of the servo amplifier to an unconfirmed
service can only be seen in the reaction of the amplifier (status word, actual values).
This channel has real-time capability.
