Functions of the signal connectors
The following functions are available for versions _SL and _AN.
D-type connectors
SIM ENC
(15-way high-density female D-type)
•
Simulated-encoder quadrature AB plus Z marker-pulse outputs for
supplying encoder speed and position to a system controller or PLC
or another servo amplifier (following power-up, Z marker-pulses
are produced only after the motor shaft has passed through the
zero position of the feedback encoder; it may then be neces-
sary to adapt the homing procedure accordingly; for more
information, refer to the supplier of the Drive)
•
Two analog outputs
•
Standard-precision analog speed or torque reference input (version
_SL only)
MC/EIA485
(15-way high-density female D-type)
)
•
t echnology I/O to a motion controller
•
Hardware enable input (electrical enable signal for the Drive)
•
Status-relay contact
•
Alternative use as an EIA485 port for control from a system control-
ler, PLC or PC
•
SLM-and-user back-up supply input for retaining position informa-
tion when the Drive is powered-down (see Back-up supplies later in
this chapter)
•
24V user supply output generated in the Drive (maintained by an
SLM-and-user back-up supply when the Drive is powered-down)
•
Status-relay contact
DIGITAL I/O
(15-way high-density male D-type)
•
Eight digital inputs for electrical contacts for local or remote (system
controller or plc) control of the Drive
•
Four digital outputs for local or remote monitoring and/or simple con-
trol of other equipment
•
24V user supply output generated in the Drive (maintained by an
SLM-and-user back-up supply when the Drive is powered-down)

STANDALONE
(15-way high-density male D-type)
•
Frequency-and-direction, quadrature square-wave inputs and
directional pulse inputs
•
