Gold 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 Gold Hawk from all voltage sources before it is opened for servicing.
• The Gold 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 Gold Hawk servo drive contains hot surfaces and electrically-charged components
during operation.
8
• The maximum DC power supply connected to the instrument must comply with the
parameters outlined in this guide.
• When connecting the Gold Hawk to an approved isolated 12–95 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 Gold 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 Gold 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).

Chapter 2: Product Description
Gold Hawk Installation Guide
2.1. Functional Description
The Gold Hawk is an advanced high power density servo drive. It provides top servo
performance, advanced networking and built in safety, all in a small PCB mountable package.
The Gold Hawk has a fully featured motion controller and local intelligence.
The Gold Hawk operates from a DC power source. The drive can operate as a stand-alone
device or as part of a multi-axis system in a distributed configuration on a real-time network.
The Gold Hawk drive is easily set up and tuned using the Elmo Application Studio (EAS)
software tools. As part of the Gold product line, it is fully programmable with the Elmo motion
control language. For more information about software tools refer to the Elmo Application
Studio Software Manual.
The Gold Hawk is available in a variety of models. There are multiple power rating options, two
different communications options, a number of feedback options and different I/O
configuration possibilities.

2.2. Product Features
Note: The features described in this chapter relate to the range of Gold Hawk models.
Depending on the model you have purchased, not all features are available.
To see the features for your model, look at the product label on the Gold Hawk and use the
product catalog number schematic that appears at the beginning of this manual and on
page 23 to determine which specific features are available to you.
2.2.1. High Power Density
The Gold Hawk delivers up to 4.1 kW of continuous power or 8.2 kW of peak power in a
38.0 cc (2.32 in³) package (55 x 46 x 15 mm or 2.2" x 1.8" x 0.6").
www.elmomc.com
MAN-G-HAKIG ( Ver. 1.001)
Gold Hawk Installation GuideProduct Description
2.2.2. Supply Input
• Single DC Power Supply - Power to the Gold Hawk is provided by a 14 to 195 VDC single
isolated DC power source (not included with the Gold Hawk). A “smart” control-supply
algorithm enables the Gold Hawk to operate with only one power supply with no need for
an auxiliary power supply for the logic.
• Optional Backup Supply - If backup functionality is required in case of power loss, e.g., to
keep the original position, a 14 to 195 VDC external isolated supply should be connected
(via the Gold Hawk’s VL+ terminal). This is more flexible than the requirement for 24 VDC
supply.
If backup is not needed, a single power supply is used for both the power and logic circuits.
There are multiple voltage ratings of the Gold Hawk (14 V to 195 V), so you must use
the correct power supply according to the maximum operating voltage of the Gold
Hawk. Refer to the section 3.1 Technical Data.

4.4. Mounting the Gold Hawk
The Gold Hawk was designed for mounting on a printed circuit board (PCB) via 1.27 mm pitch
0.41 mm square pins and 2 mm pitch 0.51 mm square pins. When integrating the Gold Hawk
into a device, be sure to leave about 1 cm (0.4") outward from the heat-sink to enable free air
convection around the drive. We recommend that the Gold Hawk be soldered directly to the
board. Alternatively, though this is not recommended, the Gold Hawk can be attached to
socket connectors mounted on the PCB. If the PCB is enclosed in a metal chassis, we
recommend that the Gold Hawk be screw-mounted to it as well to help with heat dissipation.
The Gold Hawk has screw-mount holes on each corner of the heat-sink for this purpose – see
below.
31
All measurements are in mm
Figure 2: Gold Hawk Dimensions
When the Gold 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 heat-sink. Elmo has an external heat-sink (Catalog
number: WHI-HEAT-SINK-2) that can be ordered for this purpose, see Figure 3 below.

Figure 3: Gold Hawk External Heat Sink
4.5. Integrating the Gold Hawk on a PCB
The Gold Hawk is designed to be mounted on a PCB, either by soldering its pins directly to the
PCB or by using suitable socket connectors. Refer to the Gold Line Guitar Design Guide for
further information.

4.5.1. Grounds and Returns
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)
Analog input return ANLRET (J2/20)
Common return COMRET (J2/25,31,32,43,46; J1/23)
STO safety signal return STO_RET (J1/10)
Input Return IN_RET (J1/3)
Table 8: Grounds and Returns
The returns above are all shorted within the Gold Hawk in a topology that results in optimum
performance.
Caution:
Follow these instructions to ensure safe and proper implementation. Failure to
meet any of the below-mentioned requirements can result in drive, controller
or host failure.
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 Gold Hawk. DO NOT USE A COMMON GROUND PLANE. Shorting the commons on the Integration Board
may cause performance degradation (ground loops, etc.).
www.elmomc.com
MAN-G-HAKIG ( Ver. 1.001)
Gold Hawk Installation GuideInstallation
2. Digital Inputs: The six digital inputs are optically isolated from the other parts of the Gold
Hawk. All six inputs share one return line, INRET. To retain isolation, the Input Return pin
and all other conductors on the input circuit must be laid out separately.
3. STO: The two digital STO inputs are optically isolated from the other parts of the Gold
Hawk. The two STO inputs share one return line, STO_RET. To retain isolation, the Input
Return pin and all other conductors on the input circuit must be laid out separately
4. Digital Outputs: The two digital outputs are optically isolated from the other parts of the
Gold Hawk. To retain isolation, all the output circuit conductors must be laid out
separately.
5. Return Traces: The return traces should be as large as possible, but without shorting each
other, and with minimal cross-overs.
6. Main Power Supply and Motor Traces: The power traces must be kept as far away as
possible from the feedback, control and communication traces.
7. PE Terminal: The PE (Protective Earth) terminal is connected directly to the Gold Hawk’s
heat-sink which 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.
33
8. 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.

4.7.6. Shared Supply
A Main DC Power Supply can be designed to supply power to the drive’s logic as well as to the
Main Power (see Figure 10 and the upper portion of Figure 12). If backup functionality is
required for continuous operation of the drive’s logic in the event of a main power-out, a
backup supply can be connected by implementing “diode coupling” (see the Aux. Backup
Supply in Figure 12).

4.8. STO (Safe Torque Off) Inputs
Activation of Safe Torque Off causes the drive to stop providing power that can cause rotation
(or motion in the case of a linear motor) to the motor.
This function may be used to prevent unexpected motor rotation (of brushless DC motors)
without disconnecting the drive from the power supply.
The motor is active only as long as 5 V is provided to both STO1 and STO2. Whenever any input
voltage is no longer present, power is not provided to the motor and the motor shaft continues
to rotate to an uncontrolled stop.
The STO inputs are latched which means that the motor can be re-enabled by a software
command only.
In circumstances where external influences (for example, falling of suspended loads) are
present, additional measures such as mechanical brakes are necessary to prevent any hazard.
This function corresponds to an uncontrolled stop in accordance with Stop Category 0 of IEC
60204-1.
41
Note: This function does not protect against electrical shock, and additional measures to
turn the power off are necessary.
The following table defines the behavior of the motor as a function of the state of the STO
inputs:

channel A-) can be configured by software to become PWM output.
• Pulse & Direction output: The output pins that are assigned as channel A and channel B
when used as encoder out can be configured by software to become pulse and direction
outputs, respectively.
This port is used when:
• The Gold Hawk is used as a current amplifier to provide position data to the position
controller.
• The Gold Hawk is used in velocity mode to provide position data to the position controller.
• The Gold Hawk is used as a master in follower or ECAM mode.

must be disconnected.
4.11.1. RS-232 Communication (J2)
The Gold Hawk provides RS-232 with TTL voltage level (Refer to the voltage level in the
technical specification in section 5.6 Communications). Therefore, to implement standard
RS-232, you must add a RS-232 Line Driver/Receiver on the integration board in order to
translate the TTL logic level to the standard RS-232 voltage level.
The following table describes the Gold Hawk RS-232 pinout:

4.11.6. EtherCAT/Ethernet Line Interface
Ethernet transceivers require either isolation transformers or capacitor coupling for proper
functioning. The Gold Hawk unit does not include such isolation, therefore you must take this
into consideration when designing the integration board.
In Sections 4.11.4 and 4.11.5, a schematic connection with a standard RJ-45 connector that
includes transformer isolation is described.
Other recommended connection options are:
• Gold Hawk to an RJ-45 connector without an integrated magnetic isolation (e.g. M12
connectors). An isolation transformer is required.
• Connecting two EtherCAT ports on the same board can be done using capacitive coupling
or transformer coupling.
For more detailed explanations, including layout recommendations and component selection
guidelines contact Elmo’s technical support.
4.12. Powering Up
68
After the Gold Hawk is connected to its device, it is ready to be powered up.
Caution:
Before applying power, ensure that the DC supply is within the specified range
and that the proper plus-minus connections are in order.
4.13. Initializing the System
After the Gold Hawk has been connected and mounted, the system must be set up and
initialized. This is accomplished using the Composer, Elmo’s Windows-based software
application. Install the application and then perform setup and initialization according to the
directions in the ComposerSoftware Manual.
4.14. Heat Dissipation
The best way to dissipate heat from the Gold Hawk is to mount it so that its heat-sink faces up.
For best results leave approximately 10 mm of space between the Gold Hawk's heat-sink and
any other assembly.
4.14.1. Thermal Data
• Heat dissipation capability (θ): Approximately 10 °C/W
• Thermal time constant: Approximately 240 seconds (thermal time constant means that the
Gold Hawk will reach 2/3 of its final temperature after 4 minutes)
• Shut-off temperature: 86 °C to 88 °C (measured on the heat-sink)

4.14.3. How to Use the Charts
The charts above are based upon theoretical worst-case conditions. Actual test results show
30% to 50% better power dissipation.
To determine if your application needs a heat-sink:
1. Allow maximum heat-sink temperature to be 80 °C or less.
2. Determine the ambient operating temperature of the Gold Hawk.
3. Calculate the allowable temperature increase as follows:
for an ambient temperature of 40 °C , ΔT= 80 °C – 40 °C = 40 °C
4. Use the chart to find the actual dissipation power of the drive. Follow the voltage curve to
the desired output current and then find the dissipated power.
5. If the dissipated power is below 4 W the Gold Hawk will need no additional cooling.
Notes:
70
• The chart above shows that no heat-sink is needed when the heat-sink temperature is
80 °C, ambient temperature is 40 °C and heat dissipated is 4 W.
• When an external heat-sink is required, you can use the Elmo external heat-sink (Catalog
number: WHI-HEAT-SINK-2).
