-
-
Read this documentation before carrying out installation and setup. Incorrect hand
l
ling of the servo amplifier can lead to personal injury or material damage. It is vital
that you keep to the technical data and information on connection requirements (on
the nameplate and in the documentation).
The servo amplifiers contain electrostatically sensitive components which may be
l
damaged by incorrect handling. Ground yourself before touching the servo amplifier
by touching any unpainted metal surface. Avoid contact with highly insulating mater
ials (artificial fabrics, plastic film etc.). Place the servo amplifier on a conductive sur
face.
The manufacturer of the machine must generate a hazard analysis for the machine,
l
and take appropriate measures to ensure that unforeseen movements cannot cause
injury or damage to any person or property.
Do not open the units. Keep all covers and switchgear cabinet doors closed during
l
operation. Otherwise there are deadly hazards, with the possibility of severe danger
to health or material damage.
l
During operation, servo amplifiers, according to their degree of enclosure protection,
may have uncovered live components. Control and power connections may be live,
even if the motor is not rotating.
l
Servo amplifiers may have hot surfaces during operation.
l
Never undo the electrical connections to the servo amplifier while it is live. There is a
danger of electric arcing with damage to contacts and danger to persons.
-
-
-
l
Wait at least five minutes after disconnecting the servo amplifier from the mains
supply voltage before touching live sections of the equipment (e.g. contacts) or
undoing connections. Capacitors can still have dangerous voltages present up to five
minutes after switching off the supply voltages. To be sure, measure the voltage in
the DC bus link circuit and wait until it has fallen below 40V.

AX2040/2070 Installation Manual9
Technical Description
2.2Use as directed
The servo amplifiers are components which are built into electrical equipment or machines, and can
only be used as integral components of such equipment. The manufacturer of the machine must
generate a hazard analysis for the machine, and take appropriate measures to ensure that unfore
seen movements cannot cause injury or damage to any person or property.

The AX2040/2070 family of servo amplifiers can be connected directly to symmetrically eart
hed(grounded) three-phase industrial mains supply networks [TN-system, TT-system with eart
hed(grounded) neutral point, not more than 5000rms symmetrical amperes, 480VAC maximum]
when protected by fuses type Fusetron FRS-R-50 for AX2040 or FRS-R-80 class RK5 for AX2070,
manufactured by Bussman, or equivalent, 480VAC min.
The servo amplifiers must not be operated directly on power supply networks >230V without an
earth (ground) or with an asymmetrical earth (ground).
Connection to other mains supply networks ð p. 16.
-
-
The use of external mains chokes and mains filters is required.
Periodic overvoltages between outer conductor (L1, L2, L3) and housing of the servo amplifier may
not exceed 1000V (peak value).
Transient overvoltages (< 50µs) between the outer conductors may not exceed 1000V.
Transient overvoltages (< 50µs) between outer conductors and housing may not exceed 2000V.
The regen resistors have to be protected by fuses type Limitron KLM, rated for 500VAC/DC
The AX2040/2070 family of servo amplifiers is only intended to drive specific brushless synchro
nous servomotors with closed-loop control of torque, speed and/or position. The rated voltage of the
motors must be at least as high as the DC bus link voltage of the servo amplifier. The motor must
have integral thermal protection.
The servo amplifiers may only be operated in a closed switchgear cabinet, taking into account the
ambient conditions defined on page 19 and the dimensions shown on page 33. Ventilation or cooling may be necessary to prevent enclosure ambient from exceeding 45°C (113°F).
Use copper wire only. Wire size may be determined from EN 60204 (or table 310-16 of the NEC
60°C or 75°C column for AWG size).
-
We only guarantee the conformance of the servo amplifiers with the standards for industrial areas
(page 11), if the components are delivered by Beckhoff.
Restart lock -AS-
The restart lock -AS- is exclusively intended to provide safety for personnel, by preventing the res
tart of a system. To achieve this personnel safety, the wiring of the safety circuits must meet the
safety requirements of EN60204, EN292 and EN 954-1..
The -AS- restart lock must only be activated,
—when the motor is no longer rotating (setpoint = 0V, speed = 0rpm, enable = 0V).
Drives with a suspended load must have an additional safe mechanical blocking
(e.g. by a motor-holding brake).
—when the monitoring contacts (KSO1/2 and BTB/RTO) for all servo amplifiers are wired into
the control signal loop (to recognize a cable break).
The -AS- restart lock may only be controlled by a CNC if the control of the internal safety relay is
arranged for redundant monitoring.
The -AS- restart lock must not be used if the drive is to be made inactive for the following reasons :
1.-cleaning, maintenance and repair operations
-long inoperative periods
In such cases, the entire system should be disconnected from the supply by the personnel,
and secured (main switch).
2.-emergency-stop situations
In an emergency-stop situation, the main contactor is switched off (by the emergency-stop
button or the BTB-contact in the safety circuit).

2.12Control for motor holding brake
A 24V / max. 2A holding brake in the motor can be controlled directly by the servo amplifier.
Check voltage drop, measure the voltage at brake input and check brake function
(brake and no brake).
This function does not ensure personnel safety!
The brake function must be enabled through the BRAKE parameter (setting: WITH BRAKE). In the
diagram below you can see the time and functional relationships between the ENABLE signal,
speed setpoint, speed and braking force.
During the internal ENABLE delay time of 100ms the speed setpoint of the servo amplifier is
internally driven down a 10ms ramp to 0V. The brake output is switched on when 3% of the final
speed is reached.
The rise (tbrH) and fall (tbrL) times of the holding brake which is built into the motors are different
for the various types of motor (see motor manual). A description of the interface can be found on
page 45.
A safe (for personnel) operation of the holding brake requires an additional “make” (n.o.) contact in
the brake circuit and a suppressor device (varistor) for the brake.

Technical Description
2.13Regen circuit
During braking with the aid of the motor, energy is fed back to the servo amplifier. This energy is
converted into heat in the regen resistor (ð p. 90). The regen resistor is switched into circuit by the
regen circuit. The regen circuit (thresholds) are adjusted to the supply voltage with the help of the
setup software.
Our customer service can help you with the calculation of the regen power which is required. A des
cription of the interface can be found on page 45.
Functional description:
1.- Individual amplifiers, not coupled through the DC bus link (DC+, DC-)
The circuit starts to respond at a DC bus link voltage of 400V, 720V or 840V (depending on the
supply voltage). If the energy which is fed back from the motor, as an average over time or
as a peak value, is higher than the preset regen power, then the servo amplifier will output
the status “regen power exceeded” and the regen circuit will be switched off. At the next
internal check of the DC bus link voltage (after a few ms) an overvoltage will be detected and
the servo amplifier will be switched off with the error message “Overvoltage F02” (ð p. 70).
The BTB/RTO contact (terminal X3/2,3) will be opened at the same time (ð p. 55).
2.- Several servo amplifiers coupled through the DC bus link circuit (DC+, DC-)
Thanks to the built-in regen circuit with its patented power distribution, several amplifiers
(even with different current ratings) can be operated off a common DC bus link. This is achieved
by an automatic adjustment of the regen thresholds (which vary, because of tolerances).
The regen energy is distributed equally among all the amplifiers. The combined power of
all the amplifiers is always available, as continuous or peak power. The switch-off takes
place as described under 1. (above) for the servo amplifier with the lowest switch-off
threshold (resulting from tolerances).
The RTO (BTB) contact of this amplifier (terminals X3/2,3) will be opened at the same time
(ð p. 55).

2.14Switch-on and switch-off behavior
The diagram below illustrates the correct functional sequence for switching the servo amplifier on
and off.
DC bus link
2.14.1Stop function to EN 60204
If a fault occurs (ð p. 70) the output stage of the servo amplifier is switched off and the BTB/RTO
contact is opened. In addition, a global error signal can be given out at one of the digital outputs
(terminals X3/16 and X3/17) (see online help for the setup software). These signals can be used by
the higher-level control to finish the current PLC cycle or to shut down the drive (with additional
brake or similar.).
The built-in restart lock -AS- can be used to switch off the drive via a positive-action (approved by
Trade Liability Association) safety relay, so that personnel safety is ensured at the drive shaft
(ð p. 25).
Instruments which are equipped with a selected “Brake” function use a special sequence for swit
ching off the output stage (ð p. 21).
The Stop functions are defined in EN 60204 (VDE 0113), Para. 9.2.2, 9.2.5.3.
There are three categories of Stop functions:
Category 0:Shut down by immediately switching off the supply of energy to the
drive machinery (i.e an uncontrolled shut-down);
Category 1:A controlled shut-down, during which the supply of energy to the drive
machinery is maintained to perform the shut-down, and where the energy
supply is only interrupted when the shut-down has been completed;
Category 2:A controlled shut-down, where the supply of energy to the drive machinery
is maintained.
Every machine must be equipped with a Stop function to Category 0. Stop functions to Categories 1
and/or 2 must be provided if the safety or functional requirements of the machine make this neces
sary.

2.14.2Emergency Stop strategies
The Emergency Stop function is defined in EN 60204 (VDE 0113), Para. 9.2.5.4.
Implementation of the Emergency Stop function :
You can find wiring recommendations in our application note
“Stop and Emergency Stop functions”
Category 0:
The controller is switched to “disable”, the electrical supply (208...480VAC) is disconnected.
The drive must be held by an electromagnetic holding device (brake).
In multiaxis systems with connected DC bus link bus (intermediate circuit) the motor cable
has to be disconnected by a changeover switch (contactor, e.g. Siemens 3RT1516-1BB40)
and short-circuited by resistors connected in a star configuration.
Category 1:
If hazardous conditions can result from an emergency stop switch-off with an unbraked
run-down, then the drive can be switched off by a controlled shut-down.
Stop Category 1 permits electromotive braking with a switch-off when zero speed has
been reached. Safe shut-down can be achieved, when the loss of the mains supply is not
rated as a fault and the control takes over the disabling of the servoamplifier.
In the normal situation, only the supply power is switched off in a safe manner.
The 24V auxiliary supply remains switched on.

2.15Restart lock -AS-
2.15.1Advantages of the restart lock
A frequently required application task is the protection of personnel against the restarting of drives.
This can not be achieved by an electronic inhibit, but must be implemented with mechanical ele
ments (positively driven relay contacts).
To get round this problem, up to now either the main contactor in the mains supply line was swit
ched off, or another contactor was used to disconnect the motor from the servo amplifier.
The disadvantages of this method are :
—the DC bus link has to be charged up again at restart
—wear on the contacts of the contactors, caused by switching under load
—extensive wiring required, with additional switching components
The restart lock -AS- avoids these disadvantages. A safety relay in the servo amplifier is activated
either by the PLC or manually. Positively driven contacts provide a safe disconnection of the ampli
fier, the setpoint input of the servo amplifier is inhibited, and a signal is sent to the safety circuit.
The suggested circuits (ð p. 28) fulfills safety category 1 (EN 954-1). You can fulfill safety
category 3, if you use a mains contactor with suited supervision.
Advantages of the restart lock -AS- :
—the DC bus link remains charged up, since the mains supply line remains active
—only low voltages are switched, so there is no contact wear
—very little wiring is required
—the functionality and the personnel safety when using the circuit recommendations in
this documentation have been approved by the Trade Liability Association.

2.15.2Functional description
The connector (X10) is mounted on the front panel of the AX2040/2070.The coil connections and a
make (n.o.) contact of a safety relay are made available through 4 terminals on this connector.
The 24VDC safety relay in the servo amplifier (approved) is controlled externally. All the relay contacts have positive action.
Two contacts switch off the driver supply of the output stage in the servo amplifier, and short the
internal setpoint signal to AGND (0 V).
The make (n.o.) contact used for monitoring is looped into the control circuit.
If the safety relay is not energized, then the monitoring contact is open and the servo amplifier is
ready for operation.
If the drive is electronically braked, the servo amplifier is disabled and the motor-holding brake is
on, then the safety relay is energized (manually or by the controls).
The supply voltage for the driver circuit of the output stage is switched off in a safe manner, the
internal setpoint is shorted to 0V, and the monitoring contact bridges the safety logic in the control
circuit of the system (monitoring of protective doors etc.)
Even if the output stage or driver is destroyed, it is impossible to start the motor.
If the safety relay itself is faulty, then the monitoring contact cannot bridge the safety logic of the
system. Opening the protective devices will then switch off the system.

2.15.5Installation / Setup
2.15.5.1Safety instructions
Observe the prescribed use of the restart lock -AS- (ð p. 10)
l
The monitoring contacts (KSO1/2) for each amplifier must be looped into the control
l
circuit. This is vital, so that a malfunction of the internal safety relay or a cable break
can be recognized.
If the restart lock -AS- is automatically activated by a control system (KSI1/2), then
l
make sure that the output of the control is monitored for possible malfunction. This
can be used to prevent a faulty output from activating the restart lock -AS- while the
motor is running.
Keep to the following functional sequence when the restart lock -AS- is used :
l
1.Brake the drive in a controlled manner (speed setpoint = 0V)
3.If there is a suspended load, block the drive mechanically
4.Activate the restart lock -AS-
2.15.5.2Functional test
02/06Technical Description
The functioning of the restart lock must be tested during setup, after every alteration in the wiring of
the system, or after exchanging one or more components of the system.
1.Stop all drives, with setpoint 0V, disable drives,
mechanically block any suspended loads
2.Activate the restart lock -AS-.
3.Open protective screens (but do not enter hazardous area)
4.Pull off the X10 connector from an amplifier: the mains contactor must drop out
5.Reconnect X10. Switch on mains contactor again.
6.Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each individual servo amplifier.

2.15.6Application examples
2.15.6.1Moving single axis-groups in setting-up operation
In setting-up operation, people will frequently be within the danger zone of the machinery. Axes will
normally be moved under the control of permission switches. An additional switch-off of the unused
axes, by means of the restart lock, increases the safety margin and avoids the repeated switching
of main contactors or motor contactors.
2.15.6.2Switching off grouped axes with separate working areas
Even when several AX2040/2070 are operating off a common mains supply and DC bus link, it is
possible to set up groups for separate working areas. These groups can then be switched off sepa
rately for personnel safety. For this purpose, we have provided you with a suggested circuit (mains
supply circuit and control circuit for 2 separate working groups which have interconnected DC bus
links and a common mains supply voltage).
2.15.6.2.1Control circuit
The suggested circuit fulfills safety category 1 (EN 954-1). You can fulfill safety category 3, if you
use a mains contactor with suited supervision.

3.1Important notes
02/06Installation
Protect the servo amplifier from impermissible stresses. In particular, do not let any compo
l
nents become bent or any insulation distances altered during transport and handling. Avoid
contact with electronic components and contacts.
Check the combination of servo amplifier and motor. Compare the rated voltage and current
l
of the units. Carry out the wiring according to the connection diagram on page 35.
Make sure that the maximum permissible rated voltage at the terminals L1, L2, L3 or +DC,
l
–DC is not exceeded by more than 10% even in the most unfavourable case
(see EN 60204-1 Section 4.3.1). An excessive voltage on these terminals can lead to
destruction of the regen circuit and the servo amplifier.
The use of external mains chokes and mains filters is required.
l
The fusing of the AC supply input and the 24V supply is installed by the user (ð p. 19).
l
Take care that the servo amplifier and motor are earthed (grounded) properly. Do not use
l
painted (non-conductive) mounting plates.
Route power and control cables separately. We recommend a separation of at least 200mm.
l
This improves the interference immunity required by EMC regulations.
Install all shielding with large areas (low impedance), with metallised connector housings or
l
shield connection clamps where possible. Earth (ground) the shielding at both ends (ðp.36).
Notes on connection techniques can be found on page 39.
Feedback lines may not be extended, since thereby the shielding would be interrupted and
l
the signal processing could be disturbed.
The cable between servo amplifier and regen resistor must be shielded.
l
l
Install all heavy-current cables with an adequate cross-section, as per EN 60204 (ð p. 20)
and use the requested cable material (ð p. 40) to reach max. cable length.
l
Wire the BTB/RTO contact in series into the safety circuit of the installation. The safety circuit must control the mains relay. Only in this way is the monitoring of the servo amplifier
assured.
l
Ensure that there is an adequate flow of cool, filtered air into the bottom of the switchgear
cabinet or use heat exchangers. Observe page 19 .
l
It is permissible to alter the servo amplifier settings by using the setup software.
Any other alterations will invalidate the warranty.
-
Never disconnect the electrical connections to the servoamplifier while it is live. In
unfavourable circumstances this could result in destruction of the electronics.
Residual charges in the capacitors can have dangerous levels up to 300 seconds
after switching off the mains supply voltage. Measure the voltage in the DC bus
link (+DC/-DC), and wait until the voltage has fallen below 40V.
Control and power connections can still be live, even when the motor is not
rotating.

This chapter describes the installation of the setup software for the AX2040/2070 digital servo
amplifiers.
We offer training and familiarisation courses on request.
3.5.1.1Use as directed
The setup software is intended to be used for setting up and storing the operating parameters for
the AX2040/2070 series of servo amplifiers. The attached servo amplifier can be setup with the
assistance of the software - during this process the drive can be controlled directly by the service
functions.
Only professional personnel who have the relevant expertise described on page 7
are permitted to carry out online parameter setting for a drive which is running.
Sets of data which are stored on data media are not safe against unintended
alteration by other persons. After loading a set of data you must therefore check all
parameters thoroughly before enabling the servo amplifier.
02/06Installation
3.5.1.2Software description
The servo amplifiers must be adapted to the requirements of your installation. Usually you will not
have to carry out this parameter setting yourself on the amplifier, but on a PC, with the assistance of
the setup software. The PC is connected to the servo amplifier by a null-modem cable (ð p. 62).
The setup software provides the communication between AX2040/2070 and the PC.
You will find the setup software on the accompanying CD-ROM and at our website in the download
area.
With very little effort you can alter parameters and instantly observe the effect on the drive, since
there is a continuous (online) connection to the amplifier.
Simultaneously, important actual values are read out from the amplifier and displayed on the PC
monitor (oscilloscope function).
Any interface modules (expansion cards) which may be built into the amplifier are automatically
recognized, and the additional parameters which are required for position control or motion-block
definition are made available.
Sets of data can be stored on data media (archived) and loaded again. Sets of data which are
stored on data media can be printed.
We supply you with motor-specific default sets of data for the most common combinations of servo
amplifier and motor. In most applications you will be able to use these default values to get your
drive running without any problems.

ENABLE input
The output stage of the servo amplifier is activated by the enable signal
(terminal X3/15, input 24V, active-high).
In the inhibited state (low signal) the motor which is attached does not have any torque.
Programmable digital inputs :
You can use the digital inputs PSTOP / NSTOP / DIGITAL-IN1 and DIGITAL-IN2 to initiate
preprogrammed functions that are stored in the servo amplifier.
You can find a list of pre-programmed functions on the "digital I/O" screen of our setup software.
If an input is freshly assigned to a pre-programmed function, then the data set must be stored in the
EEPROM of the servo amplifier, and the 24V auxiliary supply of the servo amplifier must be swit
ched off and on again (to reset the amplifier software).
Limit-switches PSTOP / NSTOP
Terminals X3/13 and X3/14 are normally programmed for the connection of limit switches. If these
inputs are not needed for the connection of limit switches, then they are programmable for other
input functions.

Ready-to-operate contact BTB/RTO
Operational readiness (terminals X3/2 and X3/3 ) is signalled by a floating relay contact.
The contact is closed when the servo amplifier is ready for operation, the signal is not influenced
by the enable signal, the I²t- limit, or the regen threshold.
All faults cause the BTB/RTO contact to open and the switch-off of the output
stage (if the BTB contact is open, the output stage is disabled -> no power). A list
of the error messages can be found on page 70.
Programmable digital outputs DIGITAL-OUT1/2:
You can use the digital outputs DIGITAL-OUT1 (terminal X3/16) and DIGITAL-OUT2 (terminal
X3/17) to outputs messages from pre-programmed functions that are stored in the servo amplifier.
You can find a list of pre-programmed functions on the "digital I/O" screen of our setup software.
If an input is freshly assigned to a pre-programmed function, then the data set must be stored in the
EEPROM of the servo amplifier, and the 24V auxiliary supply of the servo amplifier must be swit
ched off and on again (to reset the amplifier software).
Evaluate the outputs via inverting interface relays (see connection diagram), for example
Phönix DEK-REL-24/I/1 (turn-on delay 6 ms, turn-off delay 16ms).

4.8.2SSI encoder emulation - position output (X5)
The SSI interface (synchronous serial absolute-encoder simulation) is part of the delivered
package. Select the encoder function SSI (screen page “Encoder”). In the servo amplifier, the posi
tion of the motor shaft is calculated from the cyclically absolute signals from the resolver or encoder.
This information is used to create a position output in a format that is compatible with the standard
SSI-absolute-encoder format. 24 bits are transmitted.
SINGLE TURN selected: The upper 12 bits are fixed to ZERO, the lower 12 bits contain the posi
tion information. For 2-pole resolvers, the position value refers to the position within one turn of the
motor, for 4-pole resolvers it is within half a turn, and for 6-pole resolvers it is within a third of a turn.
Exception:
bits are set to 1 (data invalid!) until a homing run is performed.
If an encoder with a commutation track is used as the feedback unit, then the upper 12

MULTI TURN selected: The upper 12 bits contain the number of motor turns, the lower 12 bits con
tain the position information.
The signal sequence can be output in Gray code (standard) or in binary code (parameter
SSI-CODE). The servo amplifier can be adjusted to the clock frequency of your SSI-evaluation with
the SSI-TAKT parameter (cycle time 200 kHz or 1.5MHz and inverted).
The drivers are supplied from internal supply voltage.
PGND must always be connected.

To meet ISO 11898 you should use a bus cable with a characteristic impedance of 120 W. The
maximum usable cable length for reliable communication decreases with increasing transmission
speed. As a guide, you can use the following values which we have measured, but they are not to
be taken as assured limits:

Lower cable capacity (max. 30 nF/km) and lower lead resistance
(loop, 115 W/km) make it possible to achieve greater distances.
(Characteristic impedance 150 ± 5WÞterminating resistor 150 ± 5W).

5.1Important notes
Only professional personnel with extensive knowledge in the fields of electrical/
drive technology are allowed to setup the servo amplifier.
The setup procedure is described as an example. Depending on the application,
a different procedure may be sensible or necessary. In multi-axis systems, setup each
servo amplifier individually.
The manufacturer of the machine must generate a hazard analysis for the machine,
and take appropriate measures to ensure that unforeseen movements cannot
cause injury or damage to any person or property.
Check that all live connecting elements are protected from accidental contact.
Deadly voltages can be present, up to 900V.
Never disconnect any of the electrical connections to the servo amplifier while it is
live. Capacitors can still have residual charges with dangerous levels up to 300
seconds after switching off the supply power.
Heat sinks of the amplifier can reach a temperature of up to 80°C (176°F) in
operation. Check (measure) the heat sink temperature. Wait until the heat sink has
cooled down below 40°C (104°F) before touching it.
02/06Setup
If the servo amplifier has been stored for longer than 1 year, then the DC bus link
capacitors will have to be re-formed.
To do this, disconnect all the electrical connections.
Supply the servo amplifier for about 30 min. from single-phase 230VAC to the
terminals L1 / L2. This will re-form the capacitors.
Further setup information:
The adaptation of parameters and the effects on the control loop behavior are
described in the online help.
The setup of the expansion card (if present) is described in the corresponding
manual on the CD-ROM.
We can provide further know-how through training courses (on request).

5.3Parameter setting
A default parameter set is loaded into your servo amplifier by the manufacturer. This contains valid

A database for motor parameters is stored in the servo amplifier. During setup you must select the
data set for the motor that is connected and store it in the servo amplifier. For most applications
these settings will already provide good to very good control loop characteristics.
An exact description of all parameters and the possibilities for optimizing the control loop character
istics can be found in the manual “Setup Software DRIVE.EXE”.

6.1.2Expansion card -I/O-14/08-
This chapter describes the I/O-expansion card -I/O-14/08-. It only describes the additional features
that the expansion card makes available for the AX2040/2070.
If you ordered the expansion card together with the servo amplifier, then it will be delivered already
inserted into the expansion slot of the servo amplifier and screwed fast.
The -I/O-14/08- provides you with 14 additional digital inputs and 8 digital outputs. The functions of
the inputs and outputs are fixed. They are used to initiate the motion tasks that are stored in the
servo amplifier and to evaluate signals from the integrated position control in the higher-level
control.
02/06Beckhoff
The functions of the inputs and signal outputs correspond exactly to the functions that can be assig
ned to the digital-I/O on connector X3 of the AX2040/2070.
All inputs and outputs are electrically isolated from the servo amplifier by optocoupler.

6.1.5.5Setting the station address (device address)
The station address for the servo amplifier can be set in three different ways:
Set the rotary switches at the front of the expansion card to a value between 0 and 63. Each
l
switch represents a decimal figure. For example, to set the address for the drive to 10, set
MSD to 1 and LSD to 0.
l
Set the rotary switches at the front of the expansion card to a value higher than 63. Now you
can set up the station address by using the ASCII commands DNMACID x, SAVE, COLDSTART, whereby “x” stands for the station address.
l
Set the rotary switches at the front of the expansion card to a value higher than 63. Now you
can set up the station address by using the DeviceNet Object (Class 0x03, Attribute 1). This
is normally carried out with the help of a DeviceNet software setup tool. You must save the
parameters in non-volatile memory (Class 0x25, Attribute 0x65) and then restart the drive
after setting/altering the address.
6.1.5.6Setting the transmission speed
The DeviceNet transmission speed can be set in three different ways:
l
Set the rotary switch for Baud rate (at the front of the option card) to a value between
0 and 2. 0 = 125 kbit/s, 1 = 250 kbit/s, 2 = 500 kbit/s.
l
Set the rotary switch for Baud rate (at the front of the option card) to a value higher than 2.
Now you can set the Baud rate by using the terminal commands DNBAUD x, SAVE, COLD
START, whereby “x” stands for 125, 250 or 500 .
l
Set the rotary switch for Baud rate (at the front of the option card) to a value higher than 2.
Now you can set the Baud rate by using the DeviceNet Object (Class 0x03, Attribute 2) to a
value between 0 and 2. This is normally carried out with the help of a DeviceNet software
setup tool. You must save the parameters in non-volatile memory (Class 0x25, Attribute
0x65) and then restart the drive after altering the baud rate.

6.1.5.7Bus cable
02/06Beckhoff
To meet ISO 898, a bus cable with a characteristic impedance of 120 W should be used. The maxi
mum usable cable length for reliable communication decreases with increasing transmission speed.
As a guide, you can use the following values which we have measured, but they are not to be taken
as assured limits.

Shunt C = 24pF + 36 pF/m of the permanently attached stub cable
ShuntR=20KW
-25 V to +18 V (CAN_H, CAN_L)
The voltages for CAN_H and CAN_L refer to the ground pin of the
transceiver. The voltage is higher than that on the V-terminal by
the amount of the forward voltage drop of the Schottky diode. This
voltage drop must be < 0.6V.
-
Grounding:
The DeviceNet network must only be grounded at one point, to avoid ground loops. The circuitry for
the physical layer in all devices are referenced to the V-bus signal. The ground connection is made
via the power supply for the bus system. The current flowing between V- and ground must not flow
through any device other than the power supply.
Bus topology:
The DeviceNet medium utilizes a linear bus topology. Termination resistors are required at each
end of the connecting cable. Stub cables are permitted up to a length of 6 meters, so that at least
one node can be connected.
Termination resistors:
DeviceNet requires a termination at each end of the connecting cable.
These resistors must meet the following requirements: 120W, 1% metal-film, 1/4 W

Connector X6 of the AX20 is assigned to the signals for the RS232 interface and the CAN interface.
It is therefore not the standard pin assignment for these interfaces, and a special cable is required
to be able to use both interfaces simultaneously.
The -2CAN- expansion module provides the interfaces on separate Sub-D connectors. The two
CAN connectors are wired in parallel. A termination resistor (120 W) for the CAN bus can be swit
ched into circuit if the AX20 is at the end of the bus.

The increased absorption reduces the permissible rotative frequency and limits thereby the permit
ted motor speed:
— with 6 poles motors ton
— with 8 poles motorsn
— with 10 poles motorsn
The increased leakage current at rising cable length leads to the reduction of usable amplifier
output current of about 3A. The used motor should need 6A rated current at least, so that a good
regulation quality is reached.

— if there is dirt inside the unit:to be cleaned by the manufacturer
— dirty protective grill (fan):clean with a dry brush
Disposal :— the servo amplifier can be reduced to its principal components by unscrewing
— it (aluminium heat sink and front panel steel housing sections, electronics
— boards)
— disposal should be carried out by a certified disposal company.
— We can give you suitable addresses.

7.2Removing faults / warnings
The table below should be regarded as a “First-aid” box. Depending on the conditions in your instal
lation, there may be a wide variety of reasons for the fault. In multi-axis systems there may be furt
her hidden causes of a fault. Our customer service can give you further assistance with problems.

brake
— wrong cable used
— cable plugged into wrong position
-
in servo amplifier or PC
— wrong PC interface selected
— permissible heat sink temperature
exceeded
— regen power is insufficient. regen
power limit was reached and the regen
resistor was switched off. This causes
excessive voltage in the DC bus link
circuit.
— supply voltage too high
— feedback connector not inserted
— feedback cable is broken, crushed or
otherwise damaged
— supply voltage not present or too low
when servo amplifier is enabled
— motor thermostat has been activated
— feedback connector is loose or break in
feedback cable
— the aux. voltage produced by the servo
amplifier is incorrect
— motor phases swapped
— feedback set up incorrectly
— short-circuit in the supply cable for the
motor-holding brake
— motor-holding brake is faulty
— fault in brake cable
— no brake connected, although the
brake parameter is set to "WITH"
Measures to remove the cause of
the fault
— use null-modem cable
— plug cable into the correct sockets
on the servo amplifier and PC
— select correct interface
— improve ventilation
— shorten the braking time RAMP or
use an external regen resistor
with a higher power rating and
adjust the regen power parameter
— use mains transformer
— check connector
— check cable
— only enable the servo amplifier
when the mains supply voltage
has been switched on
delay > 2000 ms
— wait until motor has cooled down,
then check why it became so hot
— tighten connector or use
new feedback cable
— return the servo amplifier to the
manufacturer for repair
— correct motor phase sequence
— set up correct offset angle
— remove short-circuit
— replace motor
— check shielding of brake cable
— brake parameter set to
"WITHOUT"
