(2) Wiring
(3) Trial operation and adjustment
Correctly and securely perform the wiring. Failure to do so could lead to runaway of the
servomotor.
Do not install a condensing capacitor, surge absorber or radio noise filter on the output side of
the servo drive unit.
Correctly connect the output side (terminals U, V, W). Failure to do so could lead to abnormal
operation of the servomotor.
Do not directly connect a commercial power supply to the servomotor. Doing so could lead to
faults.
When using an inductive load such as a relay, always connect a diode as a noise measure
parallel to the load.
When using a capacitance load such as a lamp, always connect a protective resistor as a noise
measure serial to the load.
Do not reverse the direction of a diode which
connect to a DC relay for the control output
signals to suppress a surge.
Connecting it backwards could cause the drive
unit to malfunction so that signals are not output,
and emergency stop and other safety circuits are
inoperable.
Do not connect/disconnect the cables connected between the units while the power is ON.
Securely tighten the cable connector fixing screw or fixing mechanism. An insecure fixing could
cause the cable to fall off while the power is ON.
When us ing a shielded cable instructed in the connection manual, always ground the cable with
a cable clamp, etc.

CAUTION
(4) Usage methods
Install an external emergency stop circuit so that the operation can be stopped and power
shut off immediately.
Turn the power OFF immediately if smoke, abnormal noise or odors are generated from the
servomotor or servo drive unit.
Unqualified persons must not disassemble or repair the unit.
Never make modifications.
Reduce magnetic damage by installing a noise filter, etc . The electronic devices used near the
servo drive unit could be affected by magnetic noise.
Use the servomotor, servo drive unit and regenerative resistor with the designated combination.
Failure to do so could lead to fires or trouble.
The brake (magnetic brake) assembled into the servomotor are for holding, and must not be
used for normal braking.
There may be cases when holding is not possible due to the magnetic brake's life or the
machine construction (when ball screw and servomotor are coupled via a timing belt, etc.).
Install a stop device to ensure safety on the machine side.
After changing the programs/parameters or after maintenance and inspection, always test the
operation before starting actual operation.
Do not enter the movable range of the machine during automatic operation. Never place body
parts near or touch the spindle during rotation.
Follow the power supply specification conditions given in the separate specifications manual for
the power (input voltage, input frequency, tolerable sudden power failure time, etc.).
In the following explanations on bits, set all bits not used, including blank bits, to "0".
When the breaker is shared for multiple power supply units, if a short -circuit fault occurs in the
unit with the smallest capacity, the breaker may not function. This is dangerous, so do not share
the breaker.
Please do not use a dynamic brake as a usual slowdown stop. When continuation operation is
carried out, the brake resistance for dynamic may be damaged.
(5) Troubleshooting
If a hazardous situation is predicted during power failure or product trouble, use a servomotor
with magnetic brakes or install an external brake mechanism.
Use a double circuit configuration
that allows the operation circuit for
the magnetic brakes to be operated
even by the external emergency
stop signal.
Always turn the input power OFF when an alarm occurs.
Never go near the machine after restoring the power after a power failure, as the machine
could start suddenly. (Design the machine so that personal safety can be ensured even if the
machine starts suddenly.)

4.7.1 Power Supply Unit (MDS -B-CVE, MDS-C1-CV Series)
75°C: Grade heat -resistant polyvinyl chloride insulated wires (HIV)
Use copper wire only.
Above listed wire are for use in the electric cabinet on machine or equipment.
The MDS-C1 Series is MELDAS drive system that has been developed totally connected the servo drive
and spindle drive sections.
The MDS-C1 Series is the successor to the MDS-B Series, and has been developed to satisfy European
Safety Standards. This Series has the following features.
(1) Compact and lightweight
The converters that were conventionally built in each servo and spindle drive have been integrated into
one unit. The drive system volume, installation area and weight have been drastically reduced with the
incorporation of high density mounted electronic parts IGBT-IPM (Intelligent Power Module) and the
high performance heat radiating fin.
(2) Standardization of dimensions
The outline has been standardized to the book end type, and by unifying the height and depth
dimensions, installation in control box has been made easy. Furthermore, by matching the shape with
the NC unit (M500 Series), an integrated appearance with the NC has been realized.
(3) Low heat generation
By incorporating the IPM and using power supply regeneration in the servo drive, the amount of heat
generated has been greatly reduced.
(4) High speed and precision processing
A high speed CPU has been mounted on the control PCB, and a 100,000 pulse/rotation sub micron
detector has been incorporated as a standard to allow faster and more precise interpolation.
By incorporating the stable position loop control (SHG control) method, having an outstanding
response, the positioning time and tracking have been improved and the machine vibration during
acceleration/deceleration has been reduced.
The cutting performance and cutting precision during position control have been improved by using the
high speed CPU also for the spindle drive.
(5) High speed spindle orientation
Smooth operations and minimum orientation times have been realized by using the high speed
orientation method while allows direct orientation from the high speed during the spindle drive.
(6) Features of the MDS -C1 Series
(a) European Safety Standards compliant
This Series complies with the European Safety Standards (LVD Directives). (Refer to the section
"Compliance to European EC Directives" for details.)
(Note that the C1 Series target units are limited to the CV (power regeneration power supply), SP
(spindle drive) and V1/V2 (1, 2-axis servo drive).)
(b) Addition of power supply emergency stop input line
With the C1 Series , the external contactor can be directly shut off from the power supply even
when the emergency stop hot line from the NC does not function for any reason.
(This function is validated with the rotary switch and connected drive parameter settings. Thus, the
functions do not change from the conventional functions when used in the same manner as the A
Series.)
