5.13 Creating and programming TM41

Application examples
Encoder expansion and hot-plugging are typical applications implemented by means of a
DRIVE-CLiQ hub.
● An encoder expansion involves integration of direct measuring systems. These are installed
● Hot plugging is the option for changing motor components while in operation. These

Creating a DRIVE-CLiQ hub

The hub is not wired when you insert the DMC20/DME20 and is displayed in the topology tree
in the component storage. The hub has to be wired manually. Proceed as follows:
1. Right-click the "Topology" entry in the Project Navigator.
2. Select the "Insert new object" > "DRIVE-CLiQ Hub" command from the shortcut menu and
3. Double-click "Topology" to open the topology tree.
4. Drag-and-drop the hub to the required DRIVE-CLiQ interface.
The hub you inserted is displayed as icon at the "Topology" entry in the Project Navigator. All
components connected to a hub are also displayed in the course of automatic configuration.

Overview

The TM41 terminal module can be used to expand the number of digital I/O and of analog
inputs within a drive system. TM41 also returns TTL signals which emulate an incremental
encoder, for example, for a master control system.

in the control cabinet directly at the machine. Several encoders can be connected to the
same hub.
Note:
The SIMOTION D410 has precisely one DRIVE-CLiQ interface. You can use the DMC20/
DME20 to evaluate the motor encoder and an additional encoder by means of SMx.
components are connected to a star topology using a DRIVE-CLiQ hub. This setup allows
their deactivation without impairing downstream components.
