Properly qualified personnel are persons who are familiar with the transport, assembly, installation, operation, and maintenance of motors, and who meet the appropriate qualifications for their jobs.
2.2 Mounting the Hardware As with any step motor, the TSM24P must be mounted so as to provide maximum heat sinking and airflow. Keep enough space around the Integrated Motor to allow for airflow. •...
2.3.1 Voltage The TSM24P is designed to give optimum performance between 24 and 48 Volts DC. Choosing the voltage depends on the performance needed and motor/drive heating that is acceptable and/or does not cause a drive over-temperature. Higher voltages will give higher speed performance but will cause the TSM24P to produce higher temperatures.
TSM24P User Manual 2.3.3 Current The maximum supply currents required by the TSM24P are shown in the charts below at different power supply voltage inputs. The TSM24P power supply current is lower than the winding currents because it uses switching amplifiers to convert a high voltage and low current into lower voltage and higher current.

TSM24P User Manual 3.3.2 X1/STEP and X2/DIR High Speed Digital Inputs The TSM24 drives include two high-speed inputs: X1/STEP and X2/DIR. They accept 5 to 24 volt single-ended or differential signals, up to 2 MHz. Typically these inputs connect to an external controller that provides step &...
TSM24P User Manual 3.3.3 X3/EN and X4/AR Digital Inputs The TSM24 drives include two single ended inputs: X3/EN and X4/AR. They can be used with sourcing or sinking signals, 5 to 24 volts. This allows connection to PLCs, sensors, relays and mechanical switches.
TSM24P User Manual 3.3.4 Programmable Outputs The TSM24P drives feature three optically isolated digital outputs (Y1 to Y3). Y1, Y2 and Y3 share a common terminal YCOM. • Y1 can be set to signal a fault condition. • Y2 can be set to indicate when the motor is moving or to indicate whether the motor is in position.
TSM24P User Manual 4 Drive Configuration Step-Servo Quick Tuner is the PC based software application used to configure, and perform servo tuning, drive testing and evaluation of the TSM. System servo control gains, drive functionality, and I/O configuration are set with Quick Tuner. It also contains an oscilloscope function to help set the servo control gains.
TSM24P User Manual 4.1.2 Restore The Restore button will reset all parameters in the drive to the ones set by the factory (defaults). Note - as this will erase all parameters that have been changed, it may be desired to save them to a file first.
TSM24P User Manual 4.1.6 Communication When the Step-Servo Quick Tuner is connected to an TSM Integrated Motor the drive model and sub-model will cause the communications to be set to the proper type (RS-232 or RS-485). If Step-Servo Quick Tuner is unable to connect to the TSM Integrated Motor, manually selecting the communications type may help establish the connection.
For example, TSM24P can be programmed to operate at 200 steps/rev, like a full step drive. If the system is working in degrees, the drive can be programmed to operate at 36,000 steps/rev resulting in an even number of steps (100) per degree.
TSM24P User Manual The fault limit can be set as low as 10 encoder counts, or as high as 32000. During initial tuning of the system, this value should be set high so that the drive doesn’t shut down while the tuning parameters are being adjusted.
TSM24P User Manual 4.3 Position Mode The Position control mode is used with digital command input signal. 4.3.1 Basic Configuration This mode requires the setting of Maximum Currents, Digital Input Filter, Electronic Gearing, Positioning Error Fault, and Maximum Acceleration that will appear to the left of the Control Mode box when this option is checked.
TSM24P User Manual 4.3.2 Position Control - Digital This mode is for systems where the position of the motor is determined by a digital input signal in the form of pulses. Digital Settings Input Noise Filter - The digital inputs used in this mode are very high speed and can be sensitive to external electrical noise.
TSM24P User Manual 4.3.3 I/O Definition - Digital Options for X3/EN are: • Servo On when closed - the motor has no power when the input is open • Servo On when open - the motor has no power when the input is closed •...
TSM24P User Manual 5 Tuning - Sampling Being a servo motor, the TSM Integrated Motor employs sophisticated algorithms and electronics for controlling the torque, velocity and position of the motor to achieve a well behaved operation of the load. Because the motor encoder continuously tells the drive what the motor is doing, the drive can alter the current applied to the motor until the motor achieves the desired operation.
TSM24P User Manual 5.1.1 Gain: The Velocity Proportional Term (VP) The simplest part of the Velocity Loop is the proportional, or VP, term. The drive applies current to the motor in direct proportion to the error. For example, if a motor is not moving, and the shaft is turned by hand or some other force, the drive will increase the motor current until the motor returns to “0”...
TSM24P User Manual 5.2 Position Control Loop The Position Control Loop is designed to provide the typical positioning control for a servo system. All positioning type operations use this loop including when operating in the Pulse & Direction Position Control Mode. The Position loop can also be used in the Velocity Control Mode when the Position over time control type option is selection or the Jog Mode is JM=1.
TSM24P User Manual 5.2.4 Deri Filter: Torque Command Filter Term (KE) A derivative control term can be rather noisy and even though it is effective in damping the positioning control, it can cause objectionable audible or observable noise to the system. The filter is a very simple single-pole low pass filter that is used to limit this high frequency noise and make the system quieter and more stable.
TSM24P User Manual 5.4 Getting Ready for Tuning Before testing a servo-system a few more parameters need to be entered. These include the Max Speed, Acceleration and Distance (or time) requirements of the sample move. The proper profile shape of the move is needed to operate the load in the same way as what will be expected during online operation.
TSM24P User Manual 5.5 Tuning the Velocity Loop 5.5.1 Entering a Sample Move Start by selecting the V Loop tab in the Control Loop dialog section. This will cause the Sampling to perform moves that are based on Time and operates the drive in the Speed Only Velocity mode.
TSM24P User Manual 5.5.3 Adjusting tuning parameters The two primary parameters for a Timed move are the Proportional (VP) & Integral (VI) gain parameters of the velocity loop. Starting with these two terms is a good way to begin tuning as they are the minimum required terms in Velocity Loop tuning.

TSM24P User Manual 5.5.4 Adding in the FF Gain (KK) parameter The Acceleration Feed Forward (KK) applies more current to the motor to help compensate for high inertia in the system. In a servo system more current is typically required during the acceleration and deceleration phases of the move profile.
TSM24P User Manual 5.5.6 Verify the Drive Current The amount of drive current can be verified at any time during the tuning process to make sure the current supplied to the motor is not being limited by the drive. If too much current is being required changes may be made to the move profile.
TSM24P User Manual Sample Continuously: after the Start button is clicked, the move will be repeated and the results displayed until the Stop button is clicked. During continuous sampling the tuning gains can be changed at any time and will be updated automatically. This enables more dynamic adjustment of the gains for speeding up the tuning process.
TSM24P User Manual 5.7 Using Auto Trigger Sampling In cases where an external controller is used to perform move profiles, such as in the Position Control Mode using Pulse & Direction input, the Auto Trigger will allow the Sampling to collect data and display the move profile.
TSM24P User Manual 5.8 Setting the Notch filter The notch filter is used when there is a specific resonate frequency present in the system and good performance requires that only the “bad” frequency be removed. Sometimes the resonate frequency is low enough that it should only be removed using the notch filter. Using the standard output filter or reducing the gain settings may compromise the system performance too much.
TSM24P User Manual 6 SCL Test & Monitor 6.1 SCL Test The SCL (Serial Command Language) Test tool is used to send commands to the serial port of the connected drive. A command can be entered manually in the Command window at the bottom of the screen.
TSM24P User Manual 6.2.2 Single Move The Single Move tool provides settings for the Command Distance, Command Speed, Acceleration, Deceleration, and Electronic Gearing for a relative or an absolute type of move. Clicking the Absolute Move button will command the drive to move the motor to the commanded position as indicated by the Command Distance setting.
TSM24P User Manual 6.4 Monitor The Monitor tool allows the user to view five of nine different parameters at any one time. Each of the 5 dropdown lists contains the same 9 parameters that can be selected and displayed. These parameters are updated as part of the polling process and therefore the values may lag behind the actual value in the TSM.
