The SLC Servo Module, compatible with the SLC family, is used with
SLC 5/03 FRN 5.0 (and above) processors using RSLogix 500, AI500 or
APS (version 5.0 or higher) software. Once the SLC processor is
initiated, the execution of the motion block is independent of the scan
time of the processor. Blended motion allows for complicated move
profiles consisting of two to thirty-two segments. The blended move
profiles are stored in the SLC Servo Module’s memory as a series of
absolute moves and can be executed more than once. Other move or
homing operations can be performed between blended move profiles.
Publication 1746-6.1.2 - July 2000
The SLC Servo Module controls absolute position over a range of
32
bits. The SLC Servo Module performs an origin search (also called
homing) and automatically resets the absolute position to the home
position when the SLC processor requests a search function after
detecting one of the following:
• Encoder marker
• Limit switch
• Limit switch and marker
Overview of the SLC Servo Module
The SLC Servo Module operates in two modes:
• Configuration
• Command
When operating in the configuration or the command mode, the status
of the module is reported to the SLC processor.
1-3
Configuration Mode Operation
You can enter configuration mode only if the system is in Estop. In the
SLC Servo Module, you configure the SLC Servo Module by using M
files containing data provided by the SLC 5/03 (or versions listed
above) processors. All configuration parameters are internal to the SLC
Servo Module and stored in non-battery backed RAM.
In configuration mode, you select the proper setup configuration to
match the servo drive and motor without setting switches and without
special software. If you do not set up your own configuration, the
configuration is set to the default setting.
Command Mode Operation
Motor operations are performed in command mode. To operate in this
mode, set the mode flag (bit 15 in output word 0) to 0. In the
command mode, the SLC processor issues commands and activates
the following operations or moves:
• Absolute moves
• Incremental moves
• Speed moves
• Monitor moves
• Hold moves
• Unhold moves
• Blend moves
• Emergency stop operations
• Homing operations
• Preset operations
• Clear faults
• Alternate home moves

Selecting Power Supplies, Encoders, and
Drives

Overview
In this chapter we explain how to select the hardware you need to
support an SLC Servo Module system. This chapter includes the
following topics:
• Selecting a power supply for the backplane
• Selecting a user-side power supply
• Using fast inputs and outputs
• Selecting an encoder
• Selecting a drive
The amount of hardware you need depends on how many axes your
application uses. Consult your local Allen-Bradley sales engineer or
distributor to help you select the equipment for your application.
IMPORTANT
The term user-side refers to the control circuitry on
the SLC Servo Module card that is powered by
customer-supplied power sources and isolated from
the control circuitry that is powered by the
backplane of an SLC rack.
Selecting a Power Supply
for the Backplane
1Publication 1746-6.1.2 - July 2000
Before you select a power supply, calculate the current requirements
for your backplane. Use the table below for SLC Servo Module
backplane current requirements:
VoltageCurrent Requirement
+5V.300A
+24V.104A
In your calculations, include the current requirements of the I/O
modules in your chassis. Refer to your SLC 500 documentation.
2-2
Selecting Power Supplies, Encoders, and Drives
Example of Calculations for Backplane Current Requirements
In this example, the system includes:
• One seven-slot modular rack
• One 1747-L543 CPU module
• One 1746-IB8 DC input module with eight inputs @ +24V
• One 1746-OV8 DC output module with eight outputs @ +24V
• An SLC Servo Module system that contains:
• SLC Servo Modules
• Termination panels
• Allen-Bradley 845H encoders
• Fast inputs
• Fast outputs
Use the table below to find the current requirements of the devices
using backplane power. Those devices that are not included in the
backplane calculations are included in the example’s user-side
calculations.

for the backplane:

You must provide a power supply that meets your system
requirements. The following devices require user-side power:
• SLC Servo Module
• Encoders
• I/O modules
• Estop circuitry
• Fast inputs and outputs
You must select a power supply that meets the specifications of a NEC
class 2 power supply. The power supply must have +5V, ±15V
capacity, and +24V capacity for fast I/O and Estop circuitry.
IMPORTANT
We recommend that you do not use the +24V
included with the 1746-P1, P2, P3, or P4 to power
your Estop or fast I/O.
Before you select a power supply, calculate the system’s user-side
current requirements.
IMPORTANT
The user-side power must be present for the SLC
processor to communicate with the SLC Servo
Module.

Example of the Calculations for User-Side Current Requirements
In this example, the system includes:
• One seven-slot modular rack
• One 1747-L541 CPU module
• One 1746-IB8 DC input module with eight inputs @ +24V
• One 1746-OV8 DC output module with eight outputs @ +24V
• An SLC Servo Module system that contains:
• Two SLC Servo Modules
• Two termination panels
• Two Allen-Bradley 845H encoders
• Six fast inputs
• Two fast outputs
Use the table below to find the current requirements of the devices
that draw user-side power.
The SLC Servo Module system supports Allen-Bradley 845H encoders.
Other encoders are compatible if they comply with the specifications
listed in the following table.

Maximum axis
speed
Incoming quadrature frequency is limited by the following
relationship:
FQUAD (Hz) = (3334)(90°–EQ)
where:
EQ = quadrature error (degrees, electrical)
For example, for an 845H encoder with 22° quadrature error,
the maximum frequency would be:
system design should include acceptable margins.
The SLC Servo Module decodes the incoming encoder
feedback in quadrature to extract the maximum resolution with
four counts per electrical cycle. The maximum number of
encoder counts per second can be determined by:
Maximum # of counts/second = 4 counts/cycle × F
QUAD
The maximum axis speed as limited by the encoder feedback
would be:
(maximum # of counts/second)(60)
(4E)(N)
where:
E = the number of encoder lines per revolution
N = number of revolutions of the encoder per inch or millimeter
of axis travel. (For a rotary axis, N = number of revolutions of
the encoder per revolution of the axis.) For a linear axis the
units are inches or millimeters per minute. For a rotary axis the
units are revolutions per minute.
Publication 1746-6.1.2 - July 2000
Input signalEncoder feedback must be differential with 5V compatible
output signals, open-collector outputs are not supported (i.e.,
channels A, B, and Z must have source and sink current
capability, 8830 line driver outputs or equivalent). The encoder
input must have a 0.00 to 0.80 for off state and 4.75 to 5.25 for
on state to encoder common reference.
Input sink current 7 mA (max)
Marker channelGated markers
Cable lengthDepends on the user-side power supply. Power voltage at the
encoder must be greater than or equal to the power voltage
requirement specified by the manufacturer. The minimum
power requirement for the 845H is 4.75V, and the maximum
limit is 5.25V. To meet the power requirement of the encoder
and still attain maximum cable length, you can:
Raise the voltage of the power supply to meet the
•
encoder requirement, but you cannot exceed the 5.25V
limit of the control.
Increase the gage of the wire from the termination
•
panel to the encoder (12 AWG maximum).
