Hawk Installation Guide
In order to operate the Hawk servo drive safely, it is imperative that you implement the safety
procedures included in this installation guide. This information is provided to protect you and
to keep your work area safe when operating the Hawk and accompanying equipment.
Please read this chapter carefully before you begin the installation process.
Before you start, ensure that all system components are connected to earth ground. Electrical
safety is provided through a low-resistance earth connection.
Only qualified personnel may install, adjust, maintain and repair the servo drive. A qualified
person has the knowledge and authorization to perform tasks such as transporting, assembling,
installing, commissioning and operating motors.
The Hawk servo drive contains electrostatic-sensitive components that can be damaged if
handled incorrectly. To prevent any electrostatic damage, avoid contact with highly insulating
materials, such as plastic film and synthetic fabrics. Place the product on a conductive surface
and ground yourself in order to discharge any possible static electricity build-up.

Hawk Installation GuideSafety Information
1.1. Warnings
• To avoid electric arcing and hazards to personnel and electrical contacts, never
connect/disconnect the servo drive while the power source is on.
• Power cables can carry a high voltage, even when the motor is not in motion. Disconnect
the Hawk from all voltage sources before it is opened for servicing.
• The Hawk servo drive contains grounding conduits for electric current protection. Any
disruption to these conduits may cause the instrument to become hot (live) and dangerous.
• After shutting off the power and removing the power source from your equipment, wait at
least 1 minute 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 meter, before touching the equipment, is recommended.
1.2. Cautions
• The Hawk servo drive contains hot surfaces and electrically-charged components during
operation.
9
• The maximum DC power supply connected to the instrument must comply with the
parameters outlined in this guide.
• When connecting the Hawk to an approved 12 to 195 VDC auxiliary power supply, connect
it through a line that is separated from hazardous live voltages using reinforced or double
insulation in accordance with approved safety standards.
• Before switching on the Hawk, verify that all safety precautions have been observed and
that the installation procedures in this manual have been followed.
• Do not clean any of the Hawk drive's soldering with solvent cleaning fluids of pH greater
than 7 (8 to 14). The solvent corrodes the plastic cover causing cracks and eventual damage
to the drive's PCBs.
Elmo recommends using the cleaning fluid Vigon-EFM which is pH Neutral (7).

Hawk Installation GuideIntroduction
Based on Elmo Motion Control’s innovative ExtrIQ core technology, they support a wide range
of motor feedback options, programming capabilities and communication protocols.
2.1.1. Drive Description
The Hawk series of digital servo drives is designed to deliver “the highest density of power and
intelligence”. The Hawk delivers up to 4.8 kWofcontinuous power or 8.0 kW of peak power in
a 119. 6 cc (6.95 in³) package (80 x 24.5 x 61 mm or 3.15" x 0.965" x 2.4").
The Hawk is designed for OEMs. It operates 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. It is designed for use with any
type of sinusoidal and trapezoidal commutation, with vector control. The Hawk can operate as
a stand-alone device or as part of a multi-axis system in a distributed configuration on a realtime network.
The Hawk drive is easily set up and tuned using Elmo’s Composer software tools. This Windowsbased application enables users to quickly and simply configure the servo drive for optimal use
with their motor. The Hawk, as part of the
Elmo Composer motion control language.
ExtrIQ product line, is fully programmable with
13
Power to the Hawk is provided by a 12 to 195 VDC isolated DC power source (not included with
the Hawk). A “smart” control-supply algorithm enables the Hawk to operate with only one
power supply with no need for an auxiliary power supply for the logic.
If backup functionality is required for storing control parameters in case of power-loss, an
external 12 to 195 VDC isolated supply should be connected (via the +VL terminal on the Hawk)
providing maximum flexibility and backup functionality when needed.
Note: This backup power supply can operate from any voltage source within the 12 to 195
VDC range. This is much more flexible than a standard 24 VDC power supply requirement.
If backup power is not needed, two terminals (VP and VL) are shorted so that the main power
supply will also power the control/logic supply. In this way there is no need for a separate
control/logic supply.
The Hawk is a PCB mounted device which enables efficient and economic implementation.
The Hawk is available in two models:
• The Standard Hawk is a basic servo drive which operates in current, velocity and position
modes including Follower and PT & PVT. It operates simultaneously via RS-232 and CAN DS
301, DS 305, DS 402 communications and features a third-generation programming
environment.
• The Advanced Hawk includes all the motion capabilities and communication options
included in the Standard model, as well as advanced positioning capabilities: ECAM, Dual
Loop and increased program size.
Both versions operate with RS-232 and CAN communication.

3.3.3. Connector J2
Connector J2: Communications, Auxiliary Feedback and I/O functions
The Hawk was designed for mounting on a printed circuit board (PCB) via 2 mm pitch 0.51 mm
square pins. When integrating the Hawk into a device, be sure to leave about 1 cm (0.4")
outward from the heatsink to enable free air convection around the drive. We recommend that
the Hawk be soldered directly to the board. Alternatively, though this is not recommended, the
Hawk can be attached to socket connectors mounted on the PCB. If the PCB is enclosed in a
metal chassis, we recommend that the Hawk be screw-mounted to it as well to help with heat
dissipation. The Hawk has screw-mount holes on each corner of the heatsink for this purpose –
see below.
22
Figure 3: The Hawk Footprint
When the Hawk is not connected to a metal chassis, the application’s thermal profile may
require a solution for heat dissipation due to insufficient air convection. In this case, we
recommend that you connect an external heatsink.

MAN-HAWIG (Ver. 1.401)
Hawk Installation GuideInstallation
3.5. Integrating the Hawk on a PCB
The Hawk is designed to be mounted on a PCB, either by soldering its pins directly to the PCB
or by using suitable socket connectors. In both cases the rules in the following sub-sections
apply.
3.5.1. Traces
1. The size of the traces on the PCB (thickness and width) is determined by the current
carrying capacity required by the application.
The rated continuous current limit (Ic) of the Hawk is the current used for sizing the
motor traces (M1, M2, M3 and PE) and power traces (VP+, PR and PE).
For control, feedbacks and Inputs/outputs conductors the actual current is very small
but “generous” thickness and width of the conductors will contribute to a better
performance and lower interferences.
2. The traces should be as short as possible to minimize EMI and to minimize the heat
generated by the conductors.
3. The spacing between the high voltage conductors (VP+, PR, M1, M2, M3, VL) must be at
least:
23
Surface layer: 1.5 mm
Internal layer: 0.5 mm
Complying with the rules above will help satisfy UL safety standards, MIL-STD-275 and the IPCD-275 standard for non-coated conductors, operating at voltages lower than 200 VDC.
3.5.2. Grounds and Returns
The “Returns” of the Hawk are structured internally in a star configuration. The returns in each
functional block are listed below:
Functional Block Return Pin
Power PR (Power Return)
Internal Switch Mode P.S. PR (Power Return)
RS232 Communications RS232_COMRET (J1/3)
CAN Communications CAN_COMRET (J1/30)
Control section COMRET (J1/28)
Main Feedback SUPRET (J2/2)
Aux. Feedback SUPRET (J1/6)
Analog input ANLRET (J2/2)
The returns above are all shorted within the Hawk in a topology that results in optimum
performance.
1. When wiring the traces of the above functions, on the Integration Board, the Returns of
each function must be wired separately to its designated terminal on the Hawk. DO NOT
www.elmomc.com
MAN-HAWIG (Ver. 1.401)
Hawk Installation GuideInstallation
USE A COMMON GROUND PLANE. Shorting the commons on the Integration Board may
cause performance degradation (ground loops, etc.).
2. Inputs: The 6 inputs are optically isolated from the other parts of the Hawk. Each input has
a separate floating return (INRET1 for input 1 and INRET2 for input 2, etc.). To retain
isolation, the Input Return pins, as well as other conductors on the input circuit, must be
laid out separately.
3. Outputs: The 4 outputs are optically isolated from the other parts of the Hawk. Each
output has a separate floating return (OUTRET1 for output 1 and OUTRET2 for output 2,
etc.) To retain isolation, the Output Return pins, as well as other conductors on the output
circuit, must be laid out separately.
4. Return Traces: The return traces should be as large as possible, but without shorting each
other, and with minimal cross-overs.
5. Main Power Supply and Motor Traces: The power traces must be kept as far away as
possible from the feedback, control and communication traces.
6. PE Terminal: The PE terminal is connected directly to the Hawk’s heat-sink. The heat-sink
serves as an EMI common plane. The PE terminal should be connected to the system's
Protective Earth. Any other metallic parts (such as the chassis) of the assembly should be
connected to the Protective Earth as well.
24
7. Under normal operating conditions, the PE trace carries no current. The only time these
traces carry current is under abnormal conditions (such as when the device has become a
potential shock or fire hazard while conducting external EMI interferences directly to
ground). When connected properly the PE trace prevents these hazards from affecting the
drive.
Caution:
Follow these instructions to ensure safe and proper implementation. Failure to
meet any of the above-mentioned requirements can result in
drive/controller/host failure.
