LA Series Linear Servo Amplifier Technical Reference Manual Hall Error – Set when hall sequence is invalid (hall inputs are all 1’s or all 0’s) Fatal Error – Set if the DSP encounters an unidentified problem. Amplifier Over Temp – Set when the heat sink temperature is above 70 C. Motor Over Temp –...
LA Series Linear Servo Amplifier Technical Reference Manual 8.5 Status indicator/Remote Display Port Connector J8 can be used to monitor system status via a parallel bus or remote display. The data written to this port is the same data used to drive the 7-segment display. An “on” segment results in the corresponding J8 pin to be at +5 volts.
LA Series Linear Servo Amplifier Technical Reference Manual 8.6.1 Serial Commands The following commands are supported over the serial port communications interface. A – Alarm Reset This command allows viewing or resetting the alarm status. “A” with no parameter is used to read the alarm status.

LA Series Linear Servo Amplifier Technical Reference Manual Y – Display Fault History The last 8 errors from the fault history buffer are displayed. If a fault occurs while the drive is enabled, the fault is saved into the fault history buffer. The last 8 errors are saved in NVM and recalled for display when this command is issued.
LA Series Linear Servo Amplifier Technical Reference Manual 8.6.2 Serial Parameter Settings The user parameter settings are configured either by jumpers or via the serial interface. When jumpers are used, the serial interface can only be used to read the jumper settings. If no jumpers are installed, the software settings are used.

LA Series Linear Servo Amplifier Technical Reference Manual 9 Balancing Motor phase balancing is performed to minimize torque ripple in the motor caused by impedance variations in the motor windings and to compensate for component tolerance variations in the amplifier drive circuits. The intent of this adjustment is to get the three motor voltages approximately equal taking into account polarity.
LA Series Linear Servo Amplifier Technical Reference Manual 9.2 Manual Balance The procedure to manually balance the phases is shown below. A voltmeter is required to measure the phase voltages. Refer to Figure 2 on the next page for the location of the balance pots. The procedure to manually balance the phases: 1) With power off, connect the Phase A motor lead to J5-1.
LA Series Linear Servo Amplifier Technical Reference Manual 10 Test Points Five user test points are provided on the amplifier, TP1-TP5. They are located at the top of the amplifier, between JP2 and the Pushbutton switch. TP1 – I Out – This test point provides an analog voltage proportional to the current output of the amplifier. The scaling for this output is 6.6 amps per volt.
