4.8 Expansion module MAC00-P5
4.8.7 Basic setup of the "Master" motor.
Following steps must be followed
1. Enter the program "MacTalk" version 1.47 or newer.
2. At the "Advanced" tab select "Master" under Modbus setup.
3. Also select AIN3 as analogue input in order to use the 4-20mA input at the MAC00-
P5 module instead of the default input (AIN1).
4. Press "Save in flash" to save the setting permanent.
5. Go to the "Registers" tab and define the desired working range by entering a number
in "P2" after following formular (when using a linear actuator).
P2 = WR / SP * GR * CPR * 32 / 52428
Notes:
WR = Working range in mm
SP = Spindle pitch (linear motion per spindle revolution)
GR = Gear ratio between motor and spindle (if any)
CPR = Counts per motor revolution (MAC400: 8192 CPR / MAC800: 8000 CPR)
6. Set the motor in "analogue to position mode" and the motor is now in operation fol-
lowing the 4-20mA input signal etc.
The motor is now capable of moving accoring to the analogue input but topspeed, motor
torque, acceleration and other relevant paramters can now be adjusted for the actual ap-
plication.
4.8.8 Basic setup of the "Slave" motor.
If a second motor with a syncronous movement is needed the MAC00-P5 offers the posi-
bility to connect 2 MAC motors in a master/slave configuration.
The 5pin M12 male connector located at the MAC00-P5 is the master/slave connector.
By connecting the 5 pins in the master motor to the equivalent pins in the slave motor all
communication and also 24V supply is taken care of in the slave motor. Beside these con-
nections only 115/230VAC need to be supplied the slave motor.
If a slave motor is connected to the master the slave needs to be setup in order to estab-
lish permanent communication with the master motor.
Please following these steps to setup the slave motor
1. Enter the program "MacTalk" version 1.47 or newer.
2. At the "Advanced" tab select "Slave" under Modbus setup.
3. Press "Save in flash" to save the setting permanent.
4. Set the startup mode to "Position"-mode. By doing this the motor will start to follow
the position of the master motor.
5. It is recommended to set the "max velocity" and "acceleration" to appropriate high
values since they can cause a limitation in the motion of the slave compared to the
master.
6. After changing relevant parameters please remember to save the changes permanent
in the motor by pressing "Save in flash".
7. It may be needed to cycle the 24V supply for both motors in order to establish full
syncronization between the 2 motors.
