Connection Connection This section covers the methods and examples of connecting and grounding the driver, lineard motor, power and controller, as well as the control input/output signals. Connecting the lineard motor Plug the connector of the motor cable or the extension cable into the driver’s lineard motor connector (CN2). Use an optional extension cable (sold separately) to extend the distance between the lineard motor and driver.
Page 22
Connection Connecting an electromagnetic brake lineard motor If you are using a lineard motor with an electromagnetic brake, use an optional electromagnetic brake extension cable (sold separately) to connect the lineard motor to the driver. You also need a DC power supply of 24 VDC±5%, 0.3 A or more for the electromagnetic brake. Use the two lead wires [60 mm (2.36 in.)] from the electromagnetic brake relay cable for connection to the DC power supply.

• The overcurrent protection, EEPROM data error and system error cannot be cleared using the ACL input. Clear these errors by cycling the power. If the problem persists, please contact the nearest Oriental Motor office. Output signals Driver output signals are photocoupler/open-collector output, transistor open-collector output for the TIM.1, ASG1 and BSG1 outputs, and line-driver output for the TIM.2, ASG2 and BSG2 outputs.
Page 32
Connection ALARM output ALARM output remains “ON” when the driver is operating normally, then turns “OFF” when a protective function is triggered. Detect this ALARM output on the controller side and cancel the command to operate the lineard motor thereafter.
Page 33
Connection ASG output and BSG output ASG and BSG outputs are available in two types: transistor open-collector output (ASG1/GND, BSG1/GND) and line- driver output (ASG2+/ASG2−, BSG2+/BSG2−). Use either type to suit the input system of the counter unit and other functions of the controller.

Connection z About providing for ALARM output When the driver-protection function is triggered, the lineard motor stops as the current is turned off. The lineard motor loses its holding ability, which in a vertical-travel application may cause the load to fall. The user must set a controller sequence that will cut off the power to the electromagnetic brake and hold the load in position upon detecting an “OFF”...
