Your MID-7654 or 7652 servo power motor drive is a complete power amplifier and system interface for use with four or two axes of simultaneous servo motion control, respectively. The MID-7654/7652 is ideal for industrial and laboratory applications and has everything you need to connect motors, encoders, limit switches, I/O, and other motion hardware to National Instruments motion controllers.
The MID-7654/7652 can drive a broad range of servo motors with its pulse-width modulation (PWM) amplifiers with user-specified peak and continuous output current settings. In all configurations, power supplies are built in and use standard 240/120 VAC for operation. Electronics are fan-cooled to ensure reliable operation.
MID-7654/7652 Servo Power Motor Drive User Guide 2 ni.com
The MID-7654/7652 simplifies your field wiring through separate encoder, limit switch, and motor power removable screw terminal connector blocks for each axis. The terminal blocks do not require any special wiring tools for installation. The MID-7654/7652 connects to National Instruments motion controllers via a 68-pin, high-density interconnect cable.
The MID-7654/7652 has four levels of amplifier inhibit/disable protection for motion system shut down. The front panel contains both enable and power switches for direct motor inhibiting and system power-down operations. The MID-7654/7652 also has a host bus power interlock that activates an internal driver inhibit signal if the host computer is shut down or if the motion controller interface cable is disconnected. The inhibit input from the back panel connectors also inhibits the servo drives when activated.
You can use the MID-7654/7652 enclosure as a benchtop unit, panel mounted using a panel mount kit, or rack-mounted using a 19-inch standard rack kit.

Figure 1. MID-7654/7652 Front Panel

There are two rocker switches on the MID-7654/7652 front panel: AC POWER and ENABLE. Figure 1 illustrates the location of these switches.
The AC POWER switch energizes the motor bus (+48 V) and the logic (+5 V) power supplies. When switched on, the green power LED labeled +5 V illuminates. If this LED fails to illuminate, check the power cord and main input fuse on the back panel.
© National Instruments Corporation 5 MID-7654/7652 Servo Power Motor Drive User Guide
The ENABLE switch enables or inhibits the servo amplifiers. If the ENABLE switch is in the inhibit position (OFF), the amplifier output stages are inhibited and the yellow LEDs for all axes illuminate. See the Front Panel LEDs section of this guide for more information.
Both the AC POWER and ENABLE switches can inhibit the servo amplifiers. However, as long as the AC POWER switch is on, only the servo amplifier output stages are disabled. The remaining circuitry remains active, including the quadrature encoder circuit.

Host Bus Interlock Circuit

The MID-7654/7652 has a host bus interlock circuit that monitors the presence of +5 V from the host computer and disables the MID-7654/7652 when the voltage is not present or falls out of tolerance. This circuit shuts down the servo amplifiers for all axes by activating the inhibit when the host computer is disconnected from the MID-7654/7652 or inadvertently shut down. Activation of the host bus interlock circuitry illuminates the yellow LEDs (middle row) of the LED status array for all axes. See the FrontPanelLEDssection of this guide for more information.

Front Panel LEDs

The front panel LEDs consist of a single green LED to indicate if the main 5 V power is active. If the DC power supplies are active, the green power LED illuminates. If this LED fails to illuminate, check the power cord and the main input fuse on the front panel.
An LED status array of 3 rows by 4 columns on the MID-7654 or 3 rows by 2 columns on the MID-7652 provides a variety of status information. Refer to Figure 1 for the location of the front panel LEDs. The LED status array is arranged by motor axes. Each of the four columns represents an axis, and each of the three rows represents a particular status. Table 1 summarizes the axes and statuses to which the different LEDs in the 3 × 4 or 3 × 2 array correspond.

Amplifier Fault Output LEDs

The top row of the LED status array indicates the status of the amplifiers. A red LED indicates an overcurrent condition, a short circuit condition, an over temperature condition, or a problem with the motor bus voltage on that axis.

Amplifier Inhibit LEDs

The middle row of the LED status array indicates if a motor axis is inhibited. An axis is inhibited and the LED illuminates yellow if the host bus interlock circuitry is activated from the back panel, if the ENABLE switch on the front panel is in the inhibit position, if the motion controller’s inhibit signal is low, or if the per-axis inhibit input is actively driven. You can select the polarity of the per-axis inhibit input from the front panel DIP switches. See the Front Panel DIP Switch Settings section of this guide for more information.

Setting Continuous and Peak Current Limits

The MID-7654/7652 uses high-efficiency PWM amplifiers configured as torque blocks (current amplifiers or transconductance amplifiers). The peak current limit is the maximum current your motor can withstand for short periods of time. The continuous current limit is the maximum current your motor can withstand indefinitely. The MID-7654/7652 varies the gain applied to the input voltage so the maximum input voltage corresponds to a current output equal to the peak current limit, I

If you are connecting multiple motors to your MID-7654/7652, verify that the total power dissipated by the motors at any given time is less than the total power the drive can provide. If the total power requirement exceeds the capability of the drive at any point, the drive will provide less power to the motors than desired until the total power requirement drops back down. Your MID-7654/7652 may overheat under continuous operation with loads that exceed specified limits.
Caution
400 W at 25% duty cycle for a sustained period of time.
A fire safety hazard exists when the total power dissipated by the motors exceeds
To determine the maximum total power dissipation of all of the motors combined, add up the maximum power each motor can dissipate. If this value is less than or equal to 400 W at 25% duty cycle, you will not exceed the capabilities of the MID-7654/7652.
If the value is greater than 400 W at 25% duty cycle, you may still be within the operating capabilities of the MID-7654/7652, since it is unlikely you will run all of your motors simultaneously at their maximum levels. Make a reasonable estimation of the maximum power your motors will require at any given time and verify that this value is less than 400 W at 25% duty cycle.

Setting Motor Inductance Levels

Depending on the construction of your motor, you may need to configure one or more axes to the low inductance setting rather than the default standard inductance setting. Table 6 shows the motor inductance level ranges for the two different settings.

Encoder Terminal Blocks

For quadrature incremental encoder signals, each MID-7654/7652 axis has a separate 8-position removable screw terminal block. Where applicable, the MID-7654/7652 accepts two types of encoder signal inputs: single-ended (TTL) or differential line driver. You can accommodate open-collector output encoders by using 2.2 kpullup resistors to +5 VDC.
Figure 12 shows the typical encoder wiring pin assignment for single-ended signal input.

Note
If you require other encoder power voltages, reference an external power supply to
the Digital Ground signal on the 8-pin encoder terminal block.
The MID-7654/7652 supports differential inputs for Phase A, Phase B, and Index signals. You can easily accommodate encoders with various phase relationships by swapping the signals and/or connecting them to the inverting inputs as required by your application. The Index signal must occur when both Phase A and Phase B signals are low, as shown in Figure 14. If the Index polarity is inverted, try reversing the Index and Index
signals on differential encoders or using the Index input on
single-ended encoders.
Figure 14 shows the proper encoder phasing for CW (forward) motor rotation.

Figure 14. Encoder Signal Phasing, CW Rotation
Closed-loop servo applications require consistent directional polarity between the motor and encoder for correct operation. The National Instruments motion control standard directional polarity is as follows:
Positive = forward = clockwise (CW) facing motor shaft
Negative = reverse = counter-clockwise (CCW) facing motor shaft
Refer to Figure 8 for a depiction of clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation.
When connecting the encoder wiring to your MID-7654/7652, use shielded wire of at least 24 AWG. You must use cables with twisted pairs and an overall shield for improved noise immunity and enhanced encoder signal integrity. Figure 15 shows twisted pairs in a shielded cable.

Using an unshielded cable may produce noise, which can corrupt the encoder signals and cause lost counts, reduced accuracy, or other erroneous encoder and controller operation.

Limit Switch Terminal Blocks

For end-of-travel limit, home, inhibit input, and inhibit output connections, MID-7654/7652 axes have a separate, 6-position removable screw terminal connector block. Figure 16 shows the limit switch terminal block pin assignments.

You can configure the inhibit output signal to be asserted low or asserted high from the MID-7654/7652 when an axis is inhibited. This signal can be useful for actuating mechanical brakes or for monitoring an axis status. Refer to the Amplifier Inhibit LEDs section of this guide for a description of the conditions that will cause an axis to be inhibited.

Breakpoint and Trigger Terminal Blocks

Both the breakpoint and trigger connectors use a 6-pin removable terminal block.
The trigger terminal block provides access to the trigger input lines, shutdown input line, and digital ground. The breakpoint terminal block provides access to the breakpoint output lines, the +5 V supplied by the MID-7654/7652, and the digital ground. Figures 17 and 18 show the breakpoint and trigger 6-position terminal block assignments.

Step and Direction Terminal Block

The MID-7654/7652 passes step and direction signals from the controller directly through the drive, allowing you to access them through the 8-pin removable terminal block. This feature is useful if your system includes both stepper and servo motors, as it reduces the amount of custom cabling required to connect your motors and drives to the controller.
To use the step and direction connector, select an unused axis on the MID-7654/7652 and connect the step and direction outputs for that axis to your stepper drive. Refer to Figure 21 for the terminal block pin assignments. Connect additional signals for the axis, such as inhibit outputs, limit switches, breakpoints and triggers, and encoder feedback, as described earlier in this guide.

Cable Installation for CE Compliance

Take the following additional steps to ensure CE Compliance:
1. Enclose the terminal block wires in a 360-degree shielded cable. This requires a braided shield.
2. Install the strain-relief bar on the MID-7654/7652 as described in the
Accessories Included for Optional Use section of this guide.
3. Place all cables connecting to the back panel through the strain-relief bar, as follows:
a. All servo motor cables must pass through the far right clamp on
the strain-relief bar, which is directly aligned with the servo motor terminals and protection cover.
b. All remaining cables should pass through the three clamps to the
left of the servo motor terminals.
c. Cables passing through the same clamp must be of the same cable
diameter.
d. Cables passing through the same clamp must be parallel and must
not overlap each other, as shown in Figure 22.
4. All cables must be properly grounded to the strain-relief bar, which grounds them to the MID-7654/7652 chassis ground. Follow these steps to ground the cables to the strain-relief bar:
a. Remove the outer jacket from the section of the cable to be
inserted between the strain-relief bar clamp and foam, as shown in Figure 22. This will expose the braided shield of the cable.
Note
Do not cut the braided shield of the cable.

b. Lay the cables so that the braided shield makes full contact with
the foam of the strain-relief bar. The braided shield must only make contact with the strain-relief bar, and no other part of the device.
c. Lower the clamp and tighten the thumb nuts to remove all gaps
between the foam and the cable shields. The foam should press around the shield of the cable to provide 360-degree grounding to the cable shield.
5. Ground the braided shield at the opposite end of the cables to your destination enclosure ground.

MID-7654/7652 Servo Power Motor Drive User Guide 30 ni.com
4. Push the fuse holder back into the power entry module with the same orientation you observed in step 2.
5. Close the hinged cover.

Changing the Line Voltage

Follow these steps to change the line voltage on your MID-7654/7652:
1. Pry open the hinged cover on the power entry module (number 7 in Figure 6).
2. Remove the fuse holder.
3. Replace the two fuses with the appropriate fuses for the desired line voltage as listed in the Specifications section.
4. Rotate the fuse holder 180 degrees so the desired line voltage number shows through the window when the power module cover is closed.
5. Push the fuse holder back into the power entry module with the new orientation.
6. Close the hinged cover.

Amplifier/Driver Command Signals

The PWM amplifiers used in the MID-7654/7652 accept an industry-standard ±10 V analog torque (current) command signal. Servo motion controllers used with the MID-7654/7652 provide this standard output and are programmed to close both the velocity loop and position loop using an enhanced PID algorithm.

Specifications

The following specifications apply only to the MID-7654/7652. You must account for your motion controller to obtain a system specification. Refer to your controller specifications to determine overall system specifications.
Some signals define compatibility as signal pass-through, which means the MID-7654/7652 may use passive filtering on these signals. This will not affect the voltage range or current handling capability. Consult your motion controller specifications to determine the allowable voltage range and logic level compatibility of the signal.
