IEC 60364 or DIN VDE 0100 IEC 60664 or DIN VDE 0110 national accident prevention regulations or BGV A3
06/2007 Safety
-
-
-
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 produce a hazard analysis for the machine
l
and take appropriate measures to ensure that unforeseen movements do not result in personal injury or material damage.
l Do not open or touch the equipment during operation. Keep all covers and cabinet
doors closed during operation. Touching the equipment is allowed during installation and commissioning for properly qualified persons only. Otherwise, there are deadly hazards, with the possibility of death, severe injury or material damage. — During operation, servo amplifiers may have uncovered live
components, depending on their level of enclosure protection.
Control and power connections may be live, even though the
motor is not rotating.
Servo amplifiers may have hot surfaces during operation.
Surface can reach temperatures above 80°C.
-
-
-
l
Never undo any electrical connections to the servo amplifier while it is live. There is a danger of electrical arcing with damage to contacts and personal injury. Wait at least five minutes after disconnecting the servo amplifier from the main supply power before touching potentially live sections of the equipment (e.g. con tacts) or undoing any connections. Capacitors can still have dangerous voltages pre sent up to five minutes after switching off the supply power. To be sure, measure the voltage in the DC Bus link and wait until it has fallen below 40V.

Safety

2.2 Use as directed

The servo amplifiers are components which are built into electrical equipment or machines,
l
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
l
take appropriate measures to ensure that unforeseen 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
l
hed(grounded) three-phase industrial mains supply networks [TN-system, TT-system with earthed(grounded) neutral point, not more than 5000rms symmetrical amperes, 480VAC maximum] when protected by fuses type Fusetron FRS-R-50 for AX20 640 or FRS-R-80 class RK5 for AX20 670, manufactured by Bussman, or equivalent, 480VAC min.
The use of external mains chokes and mains filters is required.
The servo amplifiers must not be operated directly on power supply networks >230V without
l
an earth (ground) or with an asymmetrical earth (ground). Connection to other mains supply networks ð p. 46.
Periodic overvoltages between outer conductor (L1, L2, L3) and housing of the servo ampli
l
fier 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
l
06/2007 BECKHOFF
-
-
The AX2040/2070 family of servo amplifiers is only intended to drive specific brushless syn-
l
chronous 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.
l
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 34. Ventilation or cooling may be necessary to prevent enclosure ambient from exceeding 45°C (113°F).
l
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).
l
We only guarantee the conformance of the servo amplifiers with the standards for industrial areas (page 11), if the components are delivered by BECKHOFF.
l
Consider the specifications on page 70 when you use the personnel safe restart lock -AS-.

6.5 Control for motor holding brake

A 24 V / max. 3 A 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 100 ms (DECDIS) the speed setpoint of the servo ampli fier is internally driven down a 10 ms ramp to 0. The brake output is switched on when a speed of 5rpm is reached or after 5s (EMRGTO) the latest.
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 48.
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.

6.6 Regen 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. ). 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 48.
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. 92). The BTB/RTO contact (terminal X3/2,3) will be opened at the same time (ð p. 66).
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 auto matic 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. 66).

6.7 Switch-on and switch-off behavior

This chapter describes the switch-on and switch-off behavior of the AX2040/2070 and the steps required to achieve operational stopping or emergency stop behavior that complies with standards.
The servo amplifier’s 24 V supply must remain constant. The ASCII commands ACTFAULT (error response) and STOPMODE (ENABLE signal response) dictate how the drive will behave.
STOPMODE ACTFAULT
0 (default) 0
1 1 (default)
Behavior during a power failure
The servo amplifiers use an integrated circuit to detect if one or more input phases (power supply feed) fail. The behavior of the servo amplifier is set using the setup software: Under “Response to
Loss of Input Phase” (PMODE) on the Basic Setup screen, select:
Warning if the higher-level control system is to bring the drive to a standstill: Warning n05 is
l
output if an input phase is missing, and the motor current is limited to 4 A. The servo ampli fier is not disabled. The higher-level control system can now selectively end the current cycle or start bringing the drive to a standstill. Therefore, the error message “MAINS BTB, F16" is output on a digital output of the servo amplifier and evaluated by the control system, for ins tance.
Error message if the servo amplifier is to bring the drive to a standstill: Error message F19
l
is output if an input phase is missing. The servo amplifier is disabled and the BTB contact opens. Where the factory setting is unchanged (ACTFAULT=1), the motor is braked using the set “EMERGENCY STOP RAMP”.
Behavior when undervoltage threshold is reached
If the undervoltage threshold is undershot in the DC bus link (the threshold value depends on the type of servo amplifier), the error message “UNDERVOLTAGE, F05" is displayed. The drive response depends on the ACTFAULT/STOPMODE setting.
Behavior (see also ASCII reference in the online help of the se tup software) Motor coasts to a standstill in an uncontrolled manner Motor is braked in a controlled manner
-
-
-
Behavior with enabled “holding brake” function
Servo amplifiers with an enabled holding brake function have a special procedure for switching off the output stage ( ð p. 21). Removing the ENABLE signal triggers electrical braking. As with all electronic circuits, the general rule applies that there is a possibility of the internal “holding brake” module failing. Bringing a motor to a standstill using a holding brake in a way that is personnel safe also requires an electromechanical “make” contact for the holding equipment and a suppressor device for the brake.
Behavior of the restart lock -AS-
With the personnel safe restart lock –AS-, the drive can be secured on standstill using its internal electronics so that even when power is being supplied, the drive shaft is protected against uninten tional restart. The chapter “Personnel safe restart lock -AS-” describes how to use the restart lock –AS-. See page 69 onwards.

6.7.1 Behavior in standard operation
The behavior of the servo amplifier always depends on the current setting of a number of different parameters (e.g., ACTFAULT, VBUSMIN, VELO, STOPMODE, etc.; see online help). The diagram below illustrates the correct functional sequence for switching the servo amplifier on and off.
DC bus link
Motor speed
Power stage Enable (internal)
Devices which are equipped with a selected “Brake” function use a special sequence for switching off the output stage (ð p. 21).
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. 69).

06/2007 Technical description
6.7.2 Behavior in the event of an error (with standard setting)
The behavior of the servo amplifier always depends on the current setting of a number of different parameters (e.g., ACTFAULT, VBUSMIN, VELO, STOPMODE, etc.; see online help). The diagram shows the startup procedure and the procedure that the internal control system follows in the event of one or more electrical supply phases failing, assuming that the standard parameter settings apply.
(F16/F19 = error messages Mains BTB /input phase, F05 = error message Undervoltage)
Even if there is no intervention from an external control system (in the example, the ENABLE signal remains active), the motor is immediately braked using the emergency stop ramp if an input phase error is detected and assuming that no changes have been made to the factory setting (ACT FAULT=1).

6.8 Stop/Emergency Stop Function to EN 60204

With the personnel safe restart lock –AS- (see page 69 onwards) the drive can be secured on standstill (torque-free) using its internal electronics so that even when power is being supplied, the drive shaft is protected against unintentional restart.
6.8.1 Stop: Standards
The Stop function is used to shut down the machine in normal operation. The Stop functions are defined by EN 60204 (VDE 0113), paragraphs 9.2.2 and 9.2.5.3.
Category 0: Shut-down by immediate switching-off of the energy supply to the
drive machinery (i.e. an uncontrolled shut-down);
Category 1: A controlled shut-down , whereby the energy supply to the drive
machinery is maintained to perform the shut-down, and the energy supply is only interrupted when the shut-down has been completed;
Category 2: A controlled shut-down, whereby the energy supply to the drive
machinery is maintained.
The parameters “STOPMODE” and “ACTFAULT” must be set to 1 in order to implement the stop categories. If necessary, change the parameters via the terminal screen of the setup software and store the data in the EEPROM.
The Stop Category must be determined by a risk evaluation of the machine. In addition, suitable means must be provided to guarantee a reliable shut-down.
Category 0 and Category 1 Stops must be operable independently of the operating mode, whereby a Category 0 Stop must have priority. Stop functions must be implemented by disconnection of the appropriate circuitry, and have priority over assigned start functions.
If necessary, provision must be made for the connection of protective devices and lock-outs. If applicable, the Stop function must signal its status to the control logic. A reset of the Stop function must not create a hazardous situation.
26 AX2040/2070 Product Manual
BECKHOFF
06/2007 Technical description
6.8.2 Emergency Stop: Standards
The emergency Stop function is used for the fastest possible shut-down of the machine in a dan gerous situation. The Emergency Stop function can be triggered by the actions of a single person. It must be fully functional and available at all times. The user must not have to work out how to ope rate this mechanism.
The Emergency Stop function is defined by EN 60204 (VDE 0113), paragraph 9.2.5.4.
In addition to the requirements for Stop, the emergency Stop must fulfil the following requirements:
emergency stop must have priority over all other functions and controls in all operating situa
l
tions;
the energy supply to any drive machinery that could cause dangerous situations must be
l
switched off as fast as possible, without causing any further hazards (e.g. by using mechani cal latching devices that do not require an external supply of energy, by counter-current bra king in Stop Category 1);
the reset must not initiate a restart.
l
If necessary, provision must be made for the additional connection of emergency stop devices (see EN 60204, "Requirements for emergency stop devices").
The Emergency Stop must be effective as a stop of either Category 0 or Category 1. The Emergency Stop Category must be determined by a risk evaluation of the machine.
Category 0
Only hard-wired, electromechanical components may be used for the Category 0 Emergency Stop function. It must not be triggered using switching logic (hardware or software), by transferring com­mands via a communication network, or via a data link. The drive must be shut down using an electromechanical circuit. If the connected servo motor has an integrated brake, this must always be controlled by an electromechanical circuit as well.
-
-
-
-
-
Category 1
With the Category 1 Emergency Stop function, there must be absolute certainty in terms of the power supply for the machine drives being switched off (i.e., secured) using electromechanical com­ponents. Additional Emergency Stop equipment may be connected. Bringing the motor to a stand­still by interrupting the mains supply and using controlled electronic braking. The 24 V supply for the servo amplifier must remain constant. The issue of which circuit should be used is highly dependent on the requirements of the application at hand.
Usually a brake in a servo motor only has the function of a holding brake. To ensure an emergency stop function, the braking torque that is required must be checked. If the holding brake fulfills the dynamic requirements, it must be taken into acount that this application will cause increased wear.
The parameters “STOPMODE” and “ACTFAULT” must be set to 1 in order to implement the stop categories. If necessary, change the parameters via the terminal screen of the setup software and store the data in the EEPROM.

6.8.3 Implementation of the Stop Category 0
Bringing the motor to a standstill by immediately switching off the amplifier power supply (STOP MODE & ACTFAULT parameters set to 1). The switching sequence is precisely determined by
this circuit in order to avoid undesirable fault messages and servo amplifier failures.
It is not possible to achieve a Category 0 shut-down with the servo amplifier alone, since hard-wired electromechanical components are compulsory for this type of disconnection. A brake that is built into the motor must have an additional electromechanical control circuit, as well as the control through the AX2040/2070, in order to meet Category 0.
Usually a brake in a servo motor only has the function of a holding brake. To ensure an emergency stop function, the braking torque that is required must be checked. If the holding brake fulfills the dynamic requirements, it must be taken into acount that this application will cause increased wear.

6.8.4 Implementation of the Stop Category 1
Bringing the motor to a standstill by interrupting the mains supply and using controlled electronic braking (STOPMODE & ACTFAULT parameters set to 1). The 24 V supply for the AX2040/2070 must remain constant.
The drive is braked in a controlled manner during the stopping (disabling) procedure. If the speed VEL0 (see sequence diagram in chapter 6.5) is undershot, the holding brake is applied and the output stage is disabled.
As soon as two separate time periods (set at the time relay) have elapsed, the mains supply and the holding brake are electrically isolated.
Should an internal AX2040/2070 fault occur, the motor is forced to a standstill once K20 drops out.

Leakage current via the PE conductor results from the combination of equipment and cable leakage currents. The leakage current frequency pattern comprises a number of frequencies, whereby the residual-current circuit breakers definitively evaluate the 50Hz current. For this reason, the leakage current cannot be measured using a conventional multimeter.
As a rule of thumb, the following assumption can be made for leakage current on our low-capacity cables at a mains voltage of 400 V, depending on the clock frequency of the output stage:
Ileak=nx20mA+Lx1mA/m at 8kHz clock frequency at the output stage Ileak=nx20mA+Lx2mA/m at a 16kHz clock frequency at the output stage
(where Ileak=leakage current, n=number of amplifiers, L=length of motor cable)
At other mains voltage ratings, the leakage current varies in proportion to the voltage.
Example: 2 x servo amplifiers + a 25m motor cable at a clock frequency of 8kHz:
2 x 20mA + 25m x 1mA/m = 65mA leakage current.
Since the leakage current to PE is more than 3.5 mA, in compliance with EN50178 the PE connection must either be doubled or a connecting cable with a cross-section >10mm² must be used.
The following measures can be used to minimise leakage currents. — Reduce the length of the engine cable — Use low-capacity cables (see p.41)
06/2007 Technical description
6.9.2 Residual-current circuit breakers (FI)
In conformity with DIN IEC 60364-4-41 – Regulations for installation and EN 60204 – Electrical equipment of machinery, residual-current circuit-breakers (called FI below) can be used provided the requisite regulations are complied with.
The AX2040/2070 is a 3-phase system with a B6 bridge. Therefore, FIs which are sensitive to all currents must be used in order to detect any d.c. fault current. Refer to chapter 6.9.1 for the rule of thumb for determining the leakage current.
Rated residual currents in the FI
10 -30 mA
50 -300 mA
Recommendation: In order to protect against direct contact (with motor cables <5m) we recommend that each servo amplifier be protected individually using a 30mA residual-current circuit-breaker which is sensitive to all currents.
If you use a selective FI circuit-breaker, the more intelligent evaluation process will prevent spurious tripping of the circuit-breakers.

Technical description
6.9.3 Isolating transformers
If protection against indirect contact is absolutely essential despite a higher leakage current, or if an alternative form of shock-hazard protection is sought, the AX2040/2070 can also be operated via an isolating transformer.
A ground-leakage monitor can be used to monitor for short circuits.
We would advise you to keep the length of wiring between the transformer and the servo amplifier as short as possible.

7.1 Important notes

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.
Ensure that there is an adequate flow of cool, filtered air into the bottom of the switchgear
l
cabinet or use heat exchangers. Observe page 19.
Take care that the servo amplifier and motor are earthed (grounded) properly. Do not use
l
painted (non-conductive) mounting plates.
Don't mount devices, which produce magnetic fields, directly beside the servo amplifier.
l
Strong magnetic fields could directly affect internal components. Install devices which pro duce magnetic field with distance to the servo amplifiers and/or shield the magnetic fields.

8.1 Important Notes

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 39.
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
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.45). Notes on connection techniques can be found on page 40.
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
Install all heavy-current cables with an adequate cross-section, as per EN 60204 (ð p. 20)
l
and use the requested cable material (ð p. 41) to reach max. cable length.
Wire the BTB/RTO contact in series into the safety circuit of the installation. The safety cir-
l
cuit must control the mains relay. Only in this way is the monitoring of the servo amplifier assured.
l
It is permissible to alter the servo amplifier settings by using the setup software.
Any other alterations will invalidate the warranty.
06/2007 Electrical Installation
Never disconnect the electrical connections to the servo amplifier 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.

8.13.1 Incremental encoder output - A quad B (X5)
The incremental-encoder interface is part of the package supplied. Select the encoder function ROD (screen page “Encoder”). In the servo amplifier, the position of the motor shaft is calculated from the cyclic-absolute signals of the resolver or encoder. Incremental-encoder compatible pulses are generated from this information. Pulses are output on the SubD-connector X5 as two signals, A and B, with 90° phase difference and a zero pulse. The resolution (lines before quadrature) can be changed with the RESOLUTION parameter:

8.13.2 SSI 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

CAN bus cable
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: Cable data: Characteristic impedance 100-120 W
Cable capacity max. 60 nF/km Lead resistance (loop) 159.8 W/km
Cable length, depending on the transmission rate
Transmission rate / kbaud max. cable length / m
1000 20
500 70 250 115
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 ± 5 terminating resistor 150 ± 5 W). For EMC reasons, the SubD connector housing must fulfil the following conditions:

8.17 Restart lock -AS-

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. 73) fulfills safety category 1 (EN 954-1) or category 3 with additional safety relay (e.g. PNOZ of PILZ company).
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.

Moving 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.
Switching 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 sepa­rately for personnel safety.
8.17.1 Safety instructions
l
Observe the chapter "use as directed" for the restart lock -AS- (ð p. 70)
l
The monitoring contacts (KSO1/2) for each amplifier must be looped into the control
circuit. This is vital, so that a malfunction of the internal safety relay or a cable break
can be recognized.
l
If the restart lock -AS- is automatically activated by a control system (KSI1/2), then
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.
l
Keep to the following functional sequence when the restart lock -AS- is used :
1. Brake the drive in a controlled manner (speed setpoint = 0V)
2. When speed = 0 rpm, disable the servo amplifier (enable = 0V)
3. If there is a suspended load, block the drive mechanically
4. Activate the restart lock -AS-
AX2040/2070 Product Manual 69
Electrical Installation
8.17.2 Use as directed
06/2007 BECKHOFF
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, EN12100 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) for all servo amplifiers are wired into
the control signal loop.
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).

8.17.4 Functional 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.
06/2007 Electrical Installation
The 24VDC safety relay in the servo amplifier (approved) is controlled externally. All the relay con tacts 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.

9 Setup

9.1 Important 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.

06/2007 Setup

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).

9.2 Setup software

9.2.1 General
This chapter describes the installation of the setup software for the AX2040/2070 digital servo amplifiers.
We offer training and familiarisation courses on request.
9.2.1.1 Use 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.
06/2007 BECKHOFF
9.2.1.2 Software 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. 67). 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 web site 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.
An extensive online help with integrated description of all variables and functions supports you in each situation.

9.3.7 Save Parameters and Restart
You are going to finish setup and you have changed several basic parameters. Depending on the parameters you changed, two possible reactions can occur:
Configuration parameters changed
A warning appears, that you have to restart the amplifier. This is called "coldstart". Click "YES". The parameters are saved to the amplifier's EEPROM automatically and a reset command restarts the amplifier (takes a few seconds). For example, this happens after motor or feedback selection.
Other parameters changed
No warning appears. Parameters are saved in the volatile RAM only. Save the parameters to the
EEPROM of the servo amplifier manually by clicking the symbol in the tool bar. A coldstart of the amplifier is not necessary.
Reset the amplifier
You can reset the amplifier manually (e.g. in case of an error). Click the icon .

10.2 Expansion 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.
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.
