Chapter 2: Introduction
This installation guide descri bes t he Drum ser vo d riv es and t he steps for i ts wi ri ng,
installation and power-up. Following these guidelines ensures maximum functionality of
the drive and the system to which it is connected.
2.1 Drive Description
The Drum series are highly resilient digital servo drives designed to deliver “the highest
density of power and intelligence”. The Drum delivers up to 9.6 kW of continuous power or 11.2 kW of peak power in a compact package.
The digital drives are based on Elmo’s advanced SimplIQ motion control technology.
They operate from a DC power source in current, velocity, position and advanced position
modes, in conjunction with a permanent-magnet synchronous brushless motor, DC brush
motor, linear motor or voice coil. They are designed for use with any type of sinusoidal and
trapezoidal commutation, with vector control. The Drum can operate as a stand-alone
device or as part of a multi-axis system in a distributed configuration on a real-time
network.
2-1
The drives are easily set up and tuned using Elmo’s Composer software tools. This
Windows-based application enables users to quickly and simply configure the servo drive
for optimal use with their motor. The Drum, as part of the
programmable with Elmo Metronome motion control language.
Power to the drives is provided by a 12 ~ 195 VDC isolated DC power source (not included
with the Drum). The power stage is fully isolated from the control stage. A “smart”
control-supply algorithm enables the Drum to operate with only one power supply with no
need for an auxiliary power supply for the logic.
If back-up functionality is required for storing control parameters in case of power-loss, an
external 12 ~ 195 VDC isolated supply should be connected (via the CAN connector on the
Drum) providing maximum flexibility and backup functionality when needed.
Note: This back-up functionality can operate from any voltage source within the
12 ~ 195 VDC range. This is much more flexible than to be restricted by only using a
standard 24 VDC power supply.
If back-up power is not needed, then the main power supply will also power the
control/logic supply. In this way there is no need for a separate control/logic supply.

3.4 Connecting the Cables
3.4.1 Wiring the Drum
Once the Drum is mounted, you are ready to wire the device. Proper wiring, grounding and
shielding are essential for ensuring safe, immune and optimal servo performance of the
Drum.
Follow these instructions to ensure safe and proper wiring:
Use twisted pair shielded cables for control, feedback and communication connections.
For best results, the cable should have an aluminum foil shield covered by copper braid,
and should contain a drain wire.
The drain wire is a non-insulated wire that is in contact with parts of the cable,
usually the shield. It is used to terminate the shield and as a grounding connection.
The impedance of the wire must be as low as possible. The size of the wire must be thicker
than actually required by the carrying current. A 24, 26 or 28 AWG wire for control and
feedback cables is satisfactory although 24 AWG is recommended.
Use shielded wires for motor connections as well. If the wires are long, ensure that the
capacitance between the wires is not too high: C < 30 nF is satisfactory for most
applications.
Keep all wires and cables as short as possible.
Keep the motor wires as far away as possible from the feedback, control and
communication cables.
Ensure that in normal operating conditions, the shielded wires and drain carry no current.
The only time these conductors carry current is under abnormal conditions, when
electrical equipment has become a potential shock or fire hazard while conducting
external EMI interferences directly to ground, in order to prevent them from affecting the
drive. Failing to meet this requirement can result in drive/controller/host failure.
After completing the wiring, carefully inspect all wires to ensure tightness, good solder
joints and general safety.

3.4.2.1 Connecting the Motor Cable
Connect the motor power cable to the M1, M2, and M3 terminals of the main power connector
and the fourth wire to the PE (Protective Earth) on the heat sink (see diagram above). The
phase connection order is arbitrary because the Composer will establish the proper
commutation automatically during setup.
Notes for connecting the motor cables:
For best immunity, it is highly recommended to use a shielded (not twisted) cable for
the motor connection. A 4-wire shielded cable should be used. The gauge is
determined by the actual current consumption of the motor.
Connect the shield of the cable to the closest ground connection at the motor end.
Connect the shield of the cable to the PE terminal on the Drum.
Be sure that the motor chassis is properly grounded.
To close the motor cable into the drive, use the barrel connector, M6 spring washer
and M6 nut (in the drive). The required torque is 3-4 Nm.
To close the PE wire into the drive, use the barrel connector, M5 flat washer, M5
spring washer and M5 screw to the heatsink. The required torque is 3-4 Nm.

Figure 3-3: AC Motor Power Connection Diagram
3.4.2.2 Connecting the DC Power
The Power stage of the Drum is fully isolated from other sections of the Drum, such as the
control stage and the heatsink. This contributes very significantly to the safety and the EMI
immunity of the Drum. In addition it simplifies the requirements of the DC power supply
used to power the DC bus of the Drum and allows also the operation with a non-isolated DC
power source.
Operation with an Isolated DC power Supply:
The PE (Protective Ground of the AC network) is connected to the PR terminal [The negative
power terminal (-)].
