TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 1 Introduction Thank you for selecting the Applied Motion Products TSM23X Integrated Motor.The TSM line of integrated StepSERVO™ motors combines servo technology with an integrated motor to create a product with exceptional feature and broad capability.TruCount™ Encoders are multi-turn, absolute encoders that don’t require batteries or external power to track encoder position while the motor is powered off.
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 1.3 Safety Instructions Only qualified personnel should transport, assemble, install, operate, or maintain this equipment. Properly qualified personnel are persons who are familiar with the transport, assembly, installation, operation, and maintenance of motors, and who meet the appropriate qualifications for their jobs. To minimize the risk of potential safety problems, all applicable local and national codes regulating the installation and operation of equipment should be followed.
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 2 Getting Started The following items are needed: • a 12 - 70 Volt DC power supply, see the section below entitled “Choosing a Power Supply” for help in choosing the right one • a small flat blade screwdriver for tightening the connectors (included) •...
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 2.3 Choosing a Power Supply The main considerations when choosing a power supply are the voltage and current requirements for the application. 2.3.1 Voltage The TSM23X is designed to give optimum performance between 24 and 48 Volts DC. Choosing the voltage depends on the performance needed and motor/drive heating that is acceptable and/ or does not cause a drive over-temperature.
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 2.3.3 Current The maximum supply currents required by the TSM23X are shown in the charts below at different power supply voltage inputs. The TSM23X power supply current is lower than the winding currents because it uses switching amplifiers to convert a high voltage and low current into lower voltage and higher current.

TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 3 Installation/Connections 3.1 Connecting the Power Supply Use 16 to 20-gauge wire to connect the TSM23 to a power supply. It contains an internal fuse connected to the “+” terminal that is not user replaceable. If a user serviceable fuse is desired, install a 6.3 amp fast acting fuse in line with the “+”...
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 3.2 Connecting the TSM23X Communications 3.2.1 Connecting to a Host using RS-485 RS-485 communication allows connection of more than one drive to a single host PC, PLC, HMI or other computer. It also allows the communication cable to be long (more than 300 meters or 1000 feet).

TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual Two-Wire Configuration In a 2-wire system, the host must disable its transmitter before it can receive data. This must be done quickly before a drive begins to answer a query. The TSM23X includes a transmit delay parameter that can be adjusted to compensate for a host that is slow to disable its transmitter. This adjustment can be made over the network using the TD command, or it can be set using the Step- Servo Quick Tuner software.
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 3.3 Inputs and Outputs The TSM23X has three types of inputs: • High speed digital inputs for step & direction commands or encoder following, 5 to 24 volt logic • Low speed digital input for other signals, 5 to 24 volt logic •...
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 3.3.2 STEP & DIR Digital Inputs The TSM23 drives include two high-speed inputs: X1/STEP and X2/DIR. They accept 5 to 24 volt single-ended or differential signals, up to 2 MHz. Typically these inputs connect to an external controller that provides step &...
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 3.3.3 X3/X4/X5/X6 Digital Input While the STEP and DIR inputs are designed for high-speed digital input operation, the X3/X4/ X5/X6 input are designed for low speed digital input operation between 5 and 24 volts optically Isolated Single-ended input. They can be used with sourcing or sinking signals, 5 to 24 volts. This allows connection to PLCs, sensors, relays and mechanical switches.
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 3.3.4 X7/X8 Digital Input The X7/X8 input are designed for low speed digital input operation between 5 and 24 volts optically Isolated differential input. They are normally used for end of travel limit switches. The diagrams below show how to connect the X7/X8 Inputs to various commonly used devices X7/X8+ 5 - 24 volt DC...
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 3.3.6 Programmable Output Y1/Y2/Y3 The TSM23X drives feature three optically isolated digital outputs (Y1 to Y3). Y1, Y2 and Y3 share a common terminal YCOM. • Y1 can be set to signal a fault condition. • Y2 can be set to indicate whether the motor is in position(dynamic). •...
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 3.3.7 Programmable Output Y4 TSM23X drives feature one optically isolated digital output Y4. The Y4+(collector) and Y4-(emitter) terminals of the transistor are available at the connector. This allow the output to be configured for current sourcing or sinking. Y4 can be set to provide an output frequency proportional to motor speed (tach signal) or to provide a timing output (50 pulses/rev) or to indicate whether the motor is in position(static) Diagrams of various connection types follow.
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 4 Troubleshooting LED Error Codes The TSM23X uses red and green LEDs to indicate status. When the motor is enabled, the green LED flashes slowly. When the green LED is solid, the motor is disabled. Errors are indicated by combinations of red and green flashes as shown below.

TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual The basic structure of a command packet from the host to the drive is always a text string followed by a carriage return. The text string is composed of the command itself, followed by any required parameters. A carriage return denotes the end of transmission to the drive. The syntax of the command is XXAB<cr>...
TSM23XB-R Hardware Manual 5.5 Optional Accessories Regeneration Clamp P/N: RC880 28.6 When using a regulated power supply you may encounter a problem with regeneration. The kinetic energy caused by regeneration is transferred back to the power supply. This can trip the overvoltage protection of a switching power supply, causing it to shut down.
