1.1. Warnings
Employ the following:
• To avoid electric arcing and hazards to personnel and electrical contacts, never
connect/disconnect the servo drive while the power source is on.
• Disconnect the Solo Trombone from all voltage sources before it is opened for servicing.
• The Solo Trombone 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). It is recommended to
measure the electrical contact points with a meter before touching the equipment.
1.2. Cautions
9
• The Solo Trombone servo drive contains hot surfaces and electrically-charged components
during operation.
• The maximum DC power supply connected to the instrument must comply with the
parameters outlined in this guide.
• When connecting to Solo Trombone to an approved isolated 24 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 Solo Trombone, 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 Solo Trombone 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: Introduction
Solo Trombone Installation Guide
The Solo Trombone is an integrated solution designed to simply and efficiently connect Elmo’s
Trombone servo drive directly to the application. The solution consists of the Trombone
together with a convenient connection interface which either eliminates or reduces
development time and resources when designing an application’s PCB board.
This installation guide describes the Solo Trombone servo drive and the steps for its wiring,
installation and power-up. Follow these guidelines to ensure maximum functionality of the
drive and the system to which it is connected.
2.1. Drive Description
The Solo Trombone series of digital servo drives are highly resilient and designed to deliver the
highest density of power and intelligence. The Solo Trombone delivers up to 10 kW of continuous power or 16 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 Solo Trombone can operate as a stand-alone device or
as part of a multi-axis system in a distributed configuration on a real-time network.
11
The drives are 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 Solo Trombone, as part of the SimplIQ product line, is fully
programmable with Elmo’s Composer motion control language.
Power to the drives is provided by a DC power source (not included with the Solo Trombone).
Since the power stage is fully isolated from the control stage, the DC rectifier can be fed directly
from the mains, without the need for a bulky and expensive transformer.
If backup functionality is required to store control parameters in the event of a mains power
outage, then an S-model Solo Trombone should be used, with an external 24 VDC isolated
supply connected to it.
Note: The backup functionality can operate from an isolated voltage source within the
range of 18 to 30 VDC.
Whenever backup functionality is not required, Solo Trombone models without the catalog
number S suffix can be used (only for 400 V model). These models have a smart control-supply
algorithm that enables the Solo Trombone to operate with only the main power supply VP+
and VN-, and a 24 VDC auxiliary power supply is unnecessary for the logic.

3.3.3. Connecting Motor Power
Connect the M1, M2, M3 and PE pins on the Solo Trombone. The phase connection is arbitrary,
as the Composer will establish the proper commutation automatically during setup. However, if
you plan to copy the setup to other drives, then the phase order on all copy drives must be the
same.
21
Figure 2: AC Motor Power Connection Diagram
3.3.3.1. Connecting the DC Power
The DC power for the Solo Trombone is delivered from a separated rectifying unit (supplied by
the user). The following sections contain topology recommendations for implementing threephase and a single-phase supply chains. Elmo offers the end-user the option to purchase its
Tambourine rectifier, which offers a range of versatile options.
The power stage of the Solo Trombone is fully isolated from the other Solo Trombone sections,
such as the control-stage and the heat sink. This isolation allows the user to connect the
common of the control section to the PE, a connection that significantly contributes to proper
functionality, safety and EMI immunity, leading to better performance of the Solo Trombone.
In addition, this isolation simplifies the requirements of the DC power supply used to power the
DC bus of the Solo Trombone, by allowing it to operate with a non-isolated DC power source (a
direct-to-mains connection) therefore eliminating the need for a bulky and expensive isolation
transformer.
However, as well as operating from a non-isolated/direct-to-mains DC power supply, the Solo
Trombone can also operate from an isolated power supply or batteries.
When rectifying an AC voltage source, the AC voltage level must be limited to 270 VAC so as
not to exceed the maximum 390 VDC in the case of a 400 VDC drive, or 528 VAC so as not to
exceed the maximum 747 VDC in the case of an 800 VDC drive.
If the Solo Trombone is connected to Elmo’s Tambourine power supply, the end-user can
exploit the Tambourine’s options, such as EMI-filtering and shunt-regulator.

Solo Trombone Installation GuideInstallation
3.3.3.2. Direct-to-Mains Power Source (Non-Isolated Rectifier)
This section relates to the configuration of the power supply and drive, which are directly
connected to the Mains.
Note for connecting the non-isolated DC power supply:
1. For best immunity, it is highly recommended to use twisted cables for the DC power supply
cable. A 3-wire shielded cable should be used. The gauge is determined by the actual
current consumption of the motor.
2. Connect both ends of the cable shield to the closest PE connections.
3. Tie one end to the power supply's PE terminal/ heat sink, and tie the other end either to
the PE terminal of the Solo Trombone's power-connector, or attach it to one of the four
mounting screws of the drive's heat sink.
The Power Supply is connected directly to the Mains AC line.
Warning:
•Do not connect VN- to PE. In a direct-to-mains connection the VN- must
not be connected to the PE. Connecting the VN- to the PE will cause
irreparable damage to the system.
• Be careful and note that in a direct-to-mains connection, the Neutral point
is not the most negative voltage level. It is the mid-point level of the
rectified DC bus.

3.3.3.2.c Multiple Connections Topology
In a multi-axis application, it is likely that a single power supply can feed several drives in
parallel.
This topology is rather economic, by reducing the number of power supplies and wiring, but
most importantly, it utilizes an "energy-sharing" environment among all the drives that are
sharing the same DC bus network.
The power supply is connected directly to the mains AC line and feeds more than one drive.

Solo Trombone Installation GuideInstallation
3.3.4. Connecting the Control and Backup Supply (24 V)
In a non-S type Solo Trombone drive (a drive without the suffix S in its part number), a “smart”
control-supply algorithm enables the Solo Trombone to operate with the main power supply
only, with no need for an auxiliary supply voltage for supplying the drive's logic section.
Note that in such model there is no backup ability at all.
If backup functionality is required to store control parameters in the event of main power
outages, then the S type Solo Trombone should be used, with an external 24 VDC isolated
power supply connected to it.
Note that the S type Solo Trombone always requires an external 24 VDC power supply,
regardless if backup functionality in required or not.
Connect the auxiliary 24 VDC power supply as described below.
Note for 24 VDC backup supply connections:
1. Use a 24 AWG twisted pair shielded cable. The shield should have copper braid.
26
2. The source of the 24 VDC backup supply must be isolated, by using an isolation
transformer.
3. For safety and EMI reasons, connect the return of the 24 VDC backup supply to the closest
ground (PE).
4. Connect the cable shield to the closest ground (PE) near the power source.
5. Before applying power, first verify the correct polarity of the connection.

3.5. Auxiliary Feedback (Bi-Directional)
When using one of the Auxiliary Feedback options, the relevant functionality of the Auxiliary
Feedback's ports are software selected for that option. Refer to the SimplIQ Command Reference Manual for detailed information about Auxiliary Feedback setup.
The Auxiliary Feedback connector has two ports: B1 and B2.
• Port B1 has three pairs of differential buffered inputs.
• Port B2 has three pairs of differential buffered outputs.
There are two modes of operation for this interface:
• Mode 1 (Composer Command: YA[4]=4) – see Section 3.5.2
When the Auxiliary port of the Solo Trombone is set by the software to act as an emulated
encoder output.
This is practical only when using the following Main Feedbacks:
Resolver
Interpolated Analog Encoder
Potentiometer and Tachometer
Absolute Encoder (Stegmann, Heidenhain or Panasonic)
38
B1 input becomes inactive.
B2 presents emulated differential buffered encoder output signals of the
Main Feedback.
• Mode 2 (Composer Command: YA[4]=2 or YA[4]=0) – Refer to Sections 3.5.3, and 3.5.4.
When the Auxiliary port of the Solo Trombone is set by software to act as an input
B1 becomes an active differential buffered input.
B2 presents differential buffered encoder output signals of B1.

Table 10: Pulse-and-Direction Pin Assignments on Auxiliary Feedback
The communication interface may differ according to the user’s hardware. The Solo Trombone
can communicate using the following options:
• RS-232, full duplex
• CAN
RS-232 communication requires a standard, commercial 3-core null-modem cable connected
from the Solo Trombone to a serial interface on the PC. The interface is selected and set up in
the Composer software.
In order to benefit from CAN communication, the user must have an understanding of the basic
programming and timing issues of a CAN network.
The CAN interface is not isolated.
For ease of setup and diagnostics of CAN communication, RS-232 and CAN can be used
simultaneously.
3.5.8.1. RS-232 Communication
56
To connect the RS-232 communication cable
1. Connect the shield to the ground of the host (PC). Usually, this connection is soldered
internally inside the connector at the PC end. You can use the drain wire to facilitate
connection.
2. The RS-232 communication port is non-isolated.

3.6. Powering Up
After the Solo Trombone has been mounted, check that the cables are intact.
The Solo Trombone servo drive is then ready to be powered up.
Caution:
Before applying power, ensure that the DC supply is within the range specified for
your specific type of Solo Trombone and that the proper
plus-minus connections are in order.
3.7. Initializing the System
After the Solo Trombone 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.
3.8. Heat Dissipation
60
The best way to dissipate heat from the Solo Trombone is to mount it so that its heatsink faces
up. For best results leave approximately 10 mm of space between the Solo Trombone‘s
heatsink and any other assembly.
3.8.1. Solo Trombone Thermal Data
• Heat dissipation capability (θ): Approximately 5.5 °C/W
• Thermal time constant: Approximately 600 seconds (thermal time constant means that the
Solo Trombone will reach 2/3 of its final temperature after 10 minutes)
• Shut-off temperature: 86 °C to 88 °C (measured on the heatsink)

3.8.3. How to Use the Charts
The power dissipation in the chart includes the losses of the rectifying bridge.
Regarding Figure 28 and Figure 29, the following should be noted:
560 3X400
680 3X480
330 3X230
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 (shunt down is 6 °C to 8 °C
higher).
2. Determine the ambient operating temperature of the Solo Trombone as ≤ 40 °C.
62
3. Calculate the allowable temperature increase according to the following example: For an
ambient temperature of 40 °C, ΔT = 80 to 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.
