Intended use The EMCS-ST integrated drive is used as intended to drive the connected actuator technology. The integrated electronics enable the control of position, speed or force/torque. An external end stop is not required for operation of the integrated drive EMCS-ST.
Temperature sensors for monitoring the power stage temperature The integrated drive EMCS-ST has separate connections for the supply of logic and load voltage. The load voltage (24 V DC) for all product variants must be supplied directly by a PELV fixed power supply.

Bring moving parts of the mechanical system into a safe position. Mounting distances Drive systems with integrated drive EMCS-ST can be connected in series. When connecting drive sys- tems in series, a minimum distance must be maintained to allow the heat generated during operation to dissipate by allowing sufficient air flow.
For the electrical power supply with extra-low voltages, use only SELV circuits that ensure a reli- able separation from the mains network. • Observe IEC 60204-1/EN 60204-1. Information on EMC-compliant installation The integrated drive EMCS-ST fulfils the following tasks: – Guarantee of immunity to interference – Limits the conducted interference emission If installed correctly and if all connecting cables are wired correctly, the device fulfils the specifications of the product standard IEC 61800-3.
Logic connection: do not connect pins 2 and 3 to high potential if pin 1 is not supplied with 24 V 1. Connect the cables to the [Logic] and [Power] connections of the integrated drive EMCS-ST. 2. Connect cables to the controller or IO-Linkmaster and to the PELV fixed power supply.

14.1 Device description file IODD The boot time of the integrated drive EMCS-ST is 1 s and deviates from the IO-Link specification. Depending on the drive system, device description files (IODD files) are available for configuring the integrated drive EMCS-ST in IO-Link operation.
The identification parameters contain all manufacturer-specific device data (e.g. IDs, version num- bers) in order to identify the integrated EMCS-ST drive in the IO-Link network. The identification data are exchanged acyclically between the IO-Link master and the EMCS-ST on request by the IO-Link Mas- ter.
