MAN-DCTROIG (V er. 1.601)
DC Trombone Installation Guide Safety 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.
• Disconnect the DC Trombone from all voltage sources before it is opened for servicing.
• The DC 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
• The DC Trombone 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 to DC 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 DC 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 DC 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: Product Description
DC Trombone Installation Guide
This installation guide describes the DC Trombone servo drive and the steps for its wiring,
installation and power-up. Following these guidelines ensures optimal performance of the drive
and the system to which it is connected.
2.1. Drive Description
The DC Trombone series of digital servo drives are highly resilient and designed to deliver the
highest density of power and intelligence. The DC 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 DC 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 DC 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 DC Trombone). Elmo
recommends using the Elmo Tambourine Power Supply, which is ideally suited to the Trombone,
DC Trombone, and 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 DC 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, DC Trombone models that do not have the S
option in the catalog number (only for 400 V model) can be used. In these models, a smart
control-supply algorithm enables the DC Trombone to operate with only the main power
supply VP+ and VN-, with no need for a 24 VDC auxiliary power supply for the logic.
The DC Trombone is available in two versions:
• The Standard DC Trombone 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 catalog number begins DC-TRO but is not followed by an A.)
www.elmomc.com
MAN-DCTROIG (V er. 1.601)
DC Trombone Installation Guide Product Description
• The Advanced DC Trombone 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. (The catalog number starts DC-TROA.)
Both versions operate with RS-232 and CAN communication.

• Book Shelf along the side
M4 round head screws, one through each opening in the heat sink, are used to mount the DC
Trombone (see the diagram below).

3.5.1. Wiring the DC Trombone
Once the DC Trombone 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 DC
Trombone.
Caution:
Perform the following instructions to ensure safe and proper wiring.
1. 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.
23
2. 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.
3. Keep all wires and cables as short as possible.
4. Keep the motor wires as far away as possible from the feedback, control and
communication cables.
5. 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.
6. After completing the wiring, carefully inspect all wires to ensure tightness, good solder
joints and general safety.

3.5.2. Connection Diagrams
The following two connection diagrams (Figure 4, Figure 5) show the three different ways of
connecting the servo drive:
• 400 V and 800 V S models (the catalog number has an S option) that feature backup
functionality and require an auxiliary 24 V backup supply. The drive will not be operative
without the external 24 VDC supply.
• 400 V model without backup functionality. The drive’s internal DC/DC converter is fed from
the VP+ and VN- of the internal drive’s bus line.
