Basic drive description: The SCA-LE-30-03 servo amplifiers are designed to drive DC
brush type motors. They require a single DC power supply for operation. The drives are to
be used with a single motor. They have the functionality to operate as an independent
speed control or high performance servo. The drives are protected against short circuits,
under voltage, over temperature, and over current. It has multiple modes of operation and
serves as a reliable choice for your motion control needs.

  • Page 17: Glossary

    User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Glossary Offset There are two distinct functions for the Offset-Potentiometer: 1. Levelling the position at which the motor stands still. 2. Selection of the Set Value. This task requires setting jumper J5 and J6. In any mode, this feature is available and offers the possibility of a quick functional test.
  • Page 18 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 I max The following action requires the motor to be operated with maximum load. The motor current may be measured e.g. using current probe with effective value display, or by means of an ammeter located in the motor line.
  • Page 19 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Torque mode In this mode the driver controls only the current into the motor. The speed of the motor depends on the load because only the output force of the motor is regulated. Voltage Mode In the voltage mode the drive is watching the output voltage as a feedback voltage.
  • Page 20 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Closed loop This is broadly applied term, relating to any system in which the output is measured and compared to the input. The output is then adjusted to reach the desired condition. In motion control, the term typically describes a system utilizing a velocity and/or position transducer to generate correction signals in relation to desired parameters.
  • Page 21 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Driver Is the electronics which convert step and direction inputs to high power currents and voltages to drive a step motor. The step motor driver is analogous to the servomotor amplifier's logic. Encoder Is a feedback device which converts mechanical motion into electronic signals. The most commonly used, rotary encoders, output digital pulses corresponding to incremental angular motion.
  • Page 22 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Open-loop A system in which there is no feedback. Motor motion is expected to faithfully follow the input command. Stepping motor systems are an example of open-loop control. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) 1. A PWM controller (amplifier) switches DC supply voltage on and off at fixed frequencies.
  • Page 23 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Thermal protection A thermal sensing device mounted to the motor to protect it from overheating. This is accomplished by disconnecting the motor phases from the drive in an over temperature condition. Torque Is a measure of angular force which produces rotational motion. This force is defined by a linear force multiplied by a radius;...

    User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Description of Inputs and Outputs Digital Inputs Enable In: Activating or Disabling the Output Stage If the Enable In input is at GND potential or not wired at all, the output stage remains in the locked state. The motor stands still or slow down without brake. To reactivate the output stage, a voltage signal >8 V to the Enable In input XA/14 is necessary.
  • Page 25 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Two channels (A and B) are required for the working, a third channel (I) can be connected but it is not needed. The drive can work with single ended signals, with differential signals or with line drivers corresponding to the RS422 standard.
  • Page 26 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 Analog Inputs +Set value –Set value: Inputs for Set Value An external +10/-10 V analog signal for speed or for current is entered using +Set value and –Set value inputs. If the effective voltage is 0V, the motor stops. If the effective voltage is positive, the motor moves in one direction.
  • Page 27 User Manual SCA-LE-30-03 +Tacho –Tacho: Analog Tachometer Feed Back The +Tacho and –Tacho inputs are transmit an analog set value for the number of revolutions from a tachometer coupled to the motor, back to the servo amplifier. This feature improves the accuracy of speed control, stable even in cases of a large load change. The input is given in form of a differential amplifier.
