  • Page 31: Tach Input (J101)

    This allows the amplifier to close the servo loop and control the stability of the loop. If an encoder is used for velocity feedback, this pin serves as an output for monitoring velocity (approx. 1V/KRPM). Figure 2-9: Tach Input www.aerotech.com Chapter 2...

  • Page 34: Motor And Feedback Phasing

    1 indicates five volts or logic high. N O T E : If an Aerotech brushless motor is used with the BL amplifier, motor phase and HALL connections can be determined by referring to the system interconnection drawings in Figure 3-2, Figure 3-3, and Figure 3-4.
  • Page 35 1. Aerotech phasing configuration expects ØC to be the lead signal (in time), ØB to follow it, and ØA to follow ØB. This means that whichever signal has its sine wave peak farthest to the left should be designated as the ØC signal.
  • Page 36 After the motor leads have been tested, the next step is to determine the phase of the Hall signals. The required (by an Aerotech system) relationship between motor and Hall leads is that the peak of a motor lead signal should correspond to the low voltage phase of the Hall signal (the relationship is shown in Figure 2- 13).
  • Page 37 With the designations of the motor and Hall leads of a third party motor determined, the motor can now be connected to an Aerotech system. Connect motor lead A to motor connector A, motor lead B to motor con- nector B, and motor lead C to motor connector C. Connect Hall lead A to Pin 4 of the feedback connector.

  • Page 40: Three-Phase Brushless Motors With Unconnected Phases

    The BL Series amplifier overcomes this problem by providing the RT (return) connection for six wire motors, like the Aerotech BLM Series linear motors. Since the BL Series amplifier independently controls current in each of its three phases, six wire motors can be connected as shown in Figure 3-1.
  • Page 41: Velocity Command Configuration

    2). From this signal, the amplifier adjusts the velocity of the motor accordingly depending upon the velocity command from the external controller. In this configuration, the amplifier closes and controls the velocity loop. This configuration can drive both brush and brushless DC motors.

    If the TEST switch is closed, the effects of the BAL pot will be magnified. This is useful when applying a test bias signal (for velocity or torque modes) to the amplifier with- out introducing an external command signal. Chapter 3 www.aerotech.com...
  • Page 43: Torque Command Configuration (Current)

    In this configuration, the output current to the motor is proportional to the current command input. The advan- tage to this configuration is that the sine and cosine signals to the amplifier and a tachometer are not required. This configuration will drive both brush and brushless DC motors. Figure 3-3: Torque (Current) Command Configuration www.aerotech.com Chapter 3...
  • Page 44: Table 3-2: Torque Command Mode (Current) Bl Configuration

     With this configuration, an input signal of ±10 volts to pins +INPUT and INPUT will produce the maximum current output signal (viewed at J101 pin 25 ICMD) of ±6 volts. DIP switch positions 1 through 4 are used to scale this ±6 volt signal from zero to maximum current. Chapter 3 www.aerotech.com...
