Q-Drive Characteristics
The main characteristics of the Q-Drive servo-amplifiers are as follows:
•
Digital servo-amplifier with analogue speed command +/- 10V, for Brushless
motor with resolver.
•
Utilises a 16 bit DSP (Digital Signal Processor)
•
Compact unit for connection to 3 phase power supply with built-in braking
module.
•
Double Eurocard Format using Surface Mount Technology (SMD).
•
Completely programmable by a multi-drop RS422 or direct RS 232 serial link.
•
Sinusoidal current output assures smooth torque and optimum performance at
low speed.
•
Power and command circuits are optically isolated from each other.
•
Protections and ruggedness for use in severe conditions.
•
Easy to use external connections including two part connectors for resolver
input and encoder output.
•
Simulated incremental encoder output with adjustable resolution to 1024 ppr
and adjustable marker pulse. Differential line driver outputs.
•
7 segment status indicator for diagnostic display.
•
Short-circuit protected output stage.

•
I
t protection.
•
Detection of resolver fault, motor overheating.
•
Velocity or current regulation.
•
Auxiliary voltages are produced within the drive, no external power supply
required.
•
Drive can be enabled using an optional opto-coupled input or using a volt free
contact.
•
Motor connections are constantly monitored.
