- 6 0 0 0 / 3 1 0 0 I N S T A L L A T I O N VERVIEW The SSt-6000/3100 servo drives have been designed to simplify installation in OEM production environments. The electrical, mechanical, and operational features are designed to support simple, repeatable production of complex machines.
NSTALLATION The figure below illustrates one possible set of interconnections that might be used when installing the SSt-6000/3100 into your machine project. This diagram is intended to provide a general overview of an example SSt-6000/3100 installation. While significant detail is provided in this diagram, it should not be used as a definitive reference.
OWER NPUT ISTRIBUTION Power can be supplied to the SSt-6000/3100 drives via the AC line connector (P8) or by the DC bus ports provided on the front panel (P3, P4). Supplying single phase AC power is the simplest. However, supplying DC power derived from a 3 phase AC source can boost the peak power output of the drives by up to 50% .
This filter has enhanced low frequency suppression and is a perfect match for the SSt-6000/3100. The filter should be mounted on the same bulkhead or frame as the SSt-6000/3100 drive with no more than 10” of twisted wires between the drive and the filter. The filter can...
ISTRIBUTION OWER USSING When you use more than one SSt-6000/3100 drive in your system, you can increase the ability of the system to accept regeneration energy from an axis and increase the peak power capacity of SSt-6000/3100 drives by bussing the DC power. DC power can be bussed between several SSt- 6000/3100 drives.
The figure on the following page illustrates an excellent, inexpensive way to distribute single-phase power to a group of SSt-6000/3100 drives. This circuit shares a circuit breaker, contactor, EMI filter and a regeneration resistor (if required) between all of the connected drives.

6. The motor must have both a low impedance ground path to protective earth and an RF path to the SSt-6000/3100. This is usually provided by the motor mounting screws and the chassis metal of the machine. In cases where the motor is isolated (as during machine construction) appropriate steps must be taken to meet grounding requirements.
Fig. 9 shows typical connections from a SSt-6000/3100-U to a digital controller using low capacitance, shielded, twisted pair cable. The electrical properties of this inexpensive, readily available cable help minimize crosstalk and noise that can adversely affect signal integrity, especially in longer cable runs.
The digital interface shown above is ideal for situations when a “zero-cost” software based controller is used. For more information on how the SSt servo drives can be controlled this way, contact your Teknic sales engineer for a free application note.

& D IRECTION IGNALING SSt-6000/3100 drives can connect directly to any stepper motor indexer or pulse source using industry-standard Step and Direction signals. The Step and Direction signals from the indexer can be open-collector, TTL- level driven signals or differential line driven signals (RS-422 levels).

In fact, shock absorbers are robust under all conditions including power removal. Call your Teknic sales engineer for assistance in selecting a bumper or shock. Although HardStop Homing has several built in anti-falsing features, in a few situations it can false trigger.
ENCODER PHASES INPUTS Motor Connector (P2) Motor cables for SSt-6000/3100 drives should be constructed according to the following: Motor phase leads should be kept as short as possible after they exit the cable shield, preferably under 1”. 2. The motor phase cable shield termination should be kept short at both ends, preferably under 1.5”.
AFETY IRING ARNING SSt-6000 and SSt-3100 servo drives are used to control electrical and mechanical components in your machine that can be dangerous to human operators. Although the SSt servo drives provide a number of features to make safeguards easy to implement and safety requirements easy to comply with, safety testing and compliance is ultimately the responsibility of the machine builder.

SAFETY CIRCUITS Safety circuits using the Safety Connector (P6) The circuits shown in Fig. 19 do not depend on the SSt-6000 safety circuit operation for the interlocks or EMO switch to operate the brake. They do, however, add automatic brake operation under all contingencies of drive power removal (fuse or breaker overload), drive safety shutdown events and errant software disabling from the control code.

ACKUP OWER In situations where drive power is removed from the SSt-6000/3100 for safety requirements, you may want to maintain encoder feedback to your controller and/or serial communication with the drive. Two provisions have been designed into the SSt-6000 and SSt-3100 to accommodate backup power for these situations.
IAGNOSTIC ONNECTOR UNCTIONS Each SSt-6000/3100 drive is equipped with a diagnostic connector (P5) that provides two important functions supported by SSt-Quickset: Drive configuration via the RS-232 Configuration Port, and performance testing and diagnostics via the Real-Time Monitor Port.

NSTALLATION RIVE OUNTING The SSt-6000/3100 servo drives should be mounted on a metal panel or frame, with the AC power connector facing up as shown below. In this configuration, natural convection cooling will be maximized and the drive will deliver its rated current. The SSt-6000/3100 servo drives will...
Rated current for various SSt-6000 mounting configurations As the above illustration indicates, it is best to mount the SSt-6000/3100 drive in a vertical orientation, on a metal panel in an open area. If the drive must be mounted in a horizontal position or in a constricted area, space should be budgeted for the optional fan.

RAWINGS In this Appendix you’ll find the drawings for all of the accessory cables for the SSt-6000/3100 servo drives. Although all of these cables can be purchased from Teknic, many OEMs, once in production, prefer to fabricate their own to accommodate custom lengths.

D: A PPENDIX UDITING THE CONTROL SIGNALS The SSt-6000/3100 servo drives have many features to help make them immune to electrical noise and marginal signals, including: Analog and digital filtering of the high-speed step and direction signals and encoder signals, 2.
& D IRECTION IGNALS The SSt-6000/3100 can receive either TTL (single-ended) mode or differential mode (RS-422 levels) signals. The default input mode is TTL. To set the drive to accept differential Step and Direction signals, simply connect a jumper between S & D DIFF~ (pin 21) and GND (pin 22) on the control connector (J1).

This can be accomplished by sending alternating positive moves (+motion) and negative moves (- motion). If you are using Teknic’s ControlPoint RPE software, a simple repetitive point-to-point move can be done by using the button. Although it is possible to simply send steps to the drive while the drive is disabled (i.e.
