  • Page 10 Thomson 4.4.4 Mounting orientation and forces The actuator can be mounted in any orientation and handle both pushing and pulling loads. Always install actuator so that the force of the load acts in the center of the extension tube and the rear adapter.
  • Page 11 Thomson 4.4.6 General manual brake release and manual override notes - optional features Make sure when mounting the actuator that there is space enough between the front of the motor and any object to allow both the manual brake (a) release and the override (b) controls to be operated. See drawing below for their positions and dimensions.
  • Page 12 Thomson 4.4.8 Manual override operation - optional feature The manual override allows the extension tube to be moved at power off by manually cranking it in the desired direction using the manual override input. 1. To operate the manual override, remove the cover plug (a) using a 8 mm hex bit. Then turn on the manual override input hexagon (b) using an 8 mm hex bit (c).

    Thomson 4.5 Electrical installation 4.5.1 General notes • Make sure the leads/cables leading to the motor can handle the maximum motor current. • An emergency stop is recommended to reduce the chance of a crushing hazard. • Never work on the actuator or the wiring with the power switched on. 4.5.2 Fuse Use a slow blow fuse on the supply voltage input wiring to protect the actuator and the wiring.
  • Page 14 Thomson 4.5.5 Power supply requirements The power supply used to power the actuator must fulfill the following requirements. 1. The power supply must be sized so that it can handle both the average power over the duty cycle, as well as the peak current and the inrush current (section 4.5.6). 2.

    Thomson 4.6 Control options installation and operation 4.6.1 General notes • Avoid placing signal cables along power cables to reduce the risk of interference. • Avoid using a vehicle earth as the return conductor. Instead use a two wire system to reduce the risk of interference.
  • Page 16 Thomson 4.6.4 How to determine the control option Electrak XD is equipped with one of the control options in the table below. To determine the option your actuator has, check the model number on the product label on the actuator (section 4.1) and then check the ordering key (section 8.3).
  • Page 17 Thomson 4.6.6 Speed control input (not applicable for units with option CNO/COO) If the speed control input is not used when the extend and retract inputs are active, the actuator will move at its full speed as long as the max. load is not exceeded. If a 0 - 5 Vdc signal is connected to the speed control input, the speed of the actuator can be regulated between 20 - 100% of its full speed where 0 - 0.5 V corresponds to full speed and 1 - 5 V corresponds to 20% of full speed up to full speed.
  • Page 18 Thomson 4.6.8 Force feedback function for options CNO/COO In order to use the force feedback function, the actuator must be equipped with an integral force feedback sensor (rear adapter type K). The force is then sent over the bus according to the message structure for the type of bus being used.

  • Page 25 Thomson 5.2.3 SAE J1939 actuator control message (ACM) All actuator control parameters are adjustable through the proprietary A message (PGN 61184). The preferred transmission repetition rate is 100 ms (can also be sent as required by the application). Additional message specific information can be found in the table below, all other Proprietary A information can be found in the SAE J1939/21 specification.
  • Page 26 Thomson 5.2.4 SAE J1939 actuator feedback message (AFM) All actuator feedback data can be retrieved through the proprietary A2 message (PGN 126720). This message is transmitted every 100 ms. Additional message-specific information can be found in the table below, and all other Proprietary A2 information can be found in the SAE J1939/21 specification. A unit with the default address will send out the feedback message with ID 0x19EFFF23.
  • Page 27 Thomson Bit 1 – Current/load overload: This flag is used to inform the user that the last motion the actuator attempted caused an overload condition. This occurs when the actuator determines the current set in the Current Limit object from the ACM is exceeded for a consecutive 15 ms. This flag is also set if the set Load Limit is exceeded (section 5.2.3.4).
