Raven Installation Guide Safety Information
MAN-RAVIG (Ver. 1.1)
To avoid electric arcing and hazards to personnel and electrical contacts, never connect/discon nec t the se rvo amplifie r wh ile the pow er so urce is on .
Power cables can carry a high voltage, even when the motor is not in motion. Disconnect the Raven from all voltage sources before it is opened for servicing.
After shutting off the power and removing the power source from your equipment, wait at least 5 minutes before touching or disconnecting parts of the equipment that are normally loaded with electrical charges (such as capacitors or contacts). Measuring the electrical contact points with a me ter before touching the equipment is recommended.

3.2 Unpacking the Amplifier Components

3-1
To unpack the Raven:
Carefully remove the servo amplifier from the box and the Styrofoam.
1. Check the amplifier to ensure that there is no visible damage to the instrument. If any damage has occurred, report immediately to the carrier that delivered your amplifier.
2. To ensure that the Raven you have unpacked is the appropriate type for your requirements, find the part number sticker on the side of the Raven:
The P/N number at the top gives the type designation as follows:

3.4 Mounting the Raven

3.4.1 Mounting the Heatsink
The Raven dissipates its heat by natural convection, up to loads of 500W. For higher output loads, the amplifier should be mounted on an additional heatsink or cooled by fan. There are two 4.5-mm holes in the base plate for mounting an additional heatsink (see Figure
3.4.2 Mounting on the PC Board
When mounting the Raven on a PC board, four screws (in addition to the solder pins) may be installed to provide a mechanical connection. It is important to provide a spacer if any components are located above the amplifier. Failure to do so can warp the PC board or puncture the amplifier case. When selecting screws, the following specifications should be used. If a spacer has been added, the screw length must be calculated to penetrate the case by no more than 2.6 mm.

3.7 DC Power Supply

The DC power supply can be at any voltage in the range defined in the technical specifications (Appendix of this guide). The supply source must comply with the safety aspects of the relevant requirements, in accordance with the most recent version of the standard EN60950 or equivalent Low Voltage Directive Standard, all according to the applicable over-voltage category. If the power source to the power supply is the AC line (through a transformer), safety margins must be considered, in order to avoid activating the under/over voltage protection due to line variations and/or voltage drop under load.
In addition to the above, the transformer must comply with the safety aspects of the relevant requirements in accordance with the most recent version of the standard EN60742 (Isolating and Safety Isolating Transformers). The nominal DC bus voltage should be in the following range:
1.2 V
dcmin
< Vdc < 0.9
Vdcmax
where:
V
Vdcmax
is the minimum DC bus
dcmin
is the maximum DC bus
The recommended minimum power supply capacitance for single-phase connections is as follows:
Amplifier Voltage Range 50 - 55 V 100 V 200 V
Recommended capacitance 5600 µF 3300 µF 1500 µF
The transformer power should be calculated such that it will be able to deliver power to the amplifier (including peak power) without significant voltage drops.
The power supply should be located as close as possible to the amplifier. The maximum distance is 30 cm (1 foot). While driving high-inertia loads, the power supply must be equipped with a shunt regulator; otherwise, the amplifier will be disabled whenever the capacitors are charged above the maximum voltage.
Raven Installation Guide
MAN-RAVIG (Ver. 1.1)
Chapter 4: Servo Control Operation

4.1 Current Command Input

The Raven has two differential inputs. The input operating voltage range is ± 3.75 V, meaning that a 3.75 V signal will result in a fully rated peak current. The current limit circuits will override this signal if the peak duration exceeds 2.7 seconds and/or the required current exceeds the values set by the ECLC and ECLP signals. If the input command voltage exceeds 3.75 V, input scaling must be implemented by adding a pair of external resistors, according to the following formula:
4-1
R
= (5.33 * Vin) - 20
in (KΩ)
Be careful not to apply input voltage above the maximum allowed input voltage as this will cause the input operational amplifier to operate beyond its limits (+20 V) and in extreme cases, may even damage it.
4.2 CFM
The amplifier is equipped with a current feedback multiplier (CFM). Connecting pin J2/6 to J2/5 multiplies the signal of the current feedback by 2 and consequently causes the following changes to occur:
Current gains are divided by 2.
Current monitor is multiplied by 2.
Current limits are divided by 2.
This function should be activated whenever the rated current and the peak current of the
motor are less than 50% of the amplifier rated continuous and peak limits, respectively.

The default (pin J2/6 left open) is the low current feedback.
For permanent selection, a simple short is recommended.
For remote selection, the scheme in Figure
4-1 should be used.
Raven Installation Guide Servo Control Operation
MAN-RAVIG (Ver. 1.1)

4.3 Current Gain Control (CGC)

The Raven amplifier is equipped with Current Gain Control (CGC) for improved performance of low induction motors. Connecting pin J2/5 to J2/4 reduces the gain of the current loop, thus enabling the use of low inductance motors without the insertion of an additional inductor. The default (pin J2/5 left open) is high gain.
Shorting this pin to the circuit common pin (J2/4) reduces the proportional gain (P) of the current loop by approx. 70%.
For permanent selection, a simple short is recommended. For remote selection, the following scheme should be used.

4.4 External Current Limit - Continuous (ECLC)

The continuous current limit of the Raven amplifier can be scaled down by an external voltage or by an external resistor connected from pin J2/1 (ECLC) to pin J2/2 (ECLRET).
4.4.1 External Voltage
An external positive voltage (0 to 3.75 V) to terminal J2/1 (ECLC) in reference to terminal J2/2 (ECLRET) will control the continuous current limit from zero to Ic(nom).

The external voltage source must be able to source/ sink at least ±0.4 mA.

4.5 External Current Limit - Peak (ECLP)

4.6 Latch Mode (LM)

By connecting J2/7 to J2/8, the amplifier can be latched to Disable mode whenever a Short or Over Temperature failure occurs. Disabling the amplifier temporarily (removing the power from Enable pins J2/9 and J2/10) resets the latch. Be sure to restore the Enable connection when the reason for the event no longer exists. For permanent selection, a simple short is recommended. For remote selection, use the following scheme.
Figure 4-2: LM Remote Control

4.7 Amplifier Enable Logic

Pins J2/9 and J2/10 are the inputs of an opto-coupler, which must be energized to enable operation of the amplifier. If the Enable input is kept high before turning on the amplifier, the amplifier power output will be active immediately upon power on.

Notes:
Without latch mode:
The status indications are reset when the fault disappears.
With latch mode:
The Short and Over Temperature Failure status indications are reset when the enable signal is temporarily removed from the enable input.
Multiple faults:
Only the reading of the first fault is reliable. Additional faults add on to the status outputs and the indication is therefore meaningless.
