  • Page 4: General Information

    General Information The Advanced Digital SimpleServo family of servo amplifiers is an economical solution to today’s complex motion-control needs. The SimpleServo combines a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), controller, heat sink and power supply in one standalone, DIN-rail mountable or panel-mounted unit.

  • Page 11: Shielding And Grounding

    Advanced Digital recommends the use of the special servo cables provided by Advanced Digital. If you specify cables other than those provided by Advanced Digital, please make sure all cables are shielded and properly grounded. It may be necessary to earth ground the shielded cable (Figure 6). Ground the shield at the SimpleServo end and at the motor end.
  • Page 12: Line Filtering

    High frequency energy can be coupled between the circuits via radiation or conduction. The AC power wiring is one of the most important paths for both types of coupling mechanisms. There are many AC line filter manufacturers whose filters can be successively integrated. Advanced Digital recommends Schaffner filters based on our test results.
  • Page 13: Heat Sinking

    Table 1. Line Filter Part Numbers SimpleServo P/N Schaffner AC filter P/N SS504/604 FN350-8 SS508 FN350-12 SS608 FN350-12 Line filters should be placed inside the shielded panel. Connect the filter to the incoming power lines immediately after the safety mains and before any critical control components (Figure 6). Wire the AC line filter as close as possible to the SimpleServo.
  • Page 14 “D” connectors. These connectors provide power, communications and external feedback to the motor, servo control and host controller (Figure 8). Prefabricated cable assemblies may be purchased from Advanced Digital to facilitate wiring the control, motor and host computer. Contact your Advanced Digital sales representative for assistance.
  • Page 15 TB501 pin 8 (chassis ground); the other end should be properly terminated at the motor shield. To satisfy CE requirements, Advanced Digital recommends that you purchase SimpleServo cables for both the motor and AC line. Contact your Advanced Digital representative for assistance.

    TB502 (Analog/Digital I/O Terminal Block) TB502 is a 15-pin quick-connect terminal block used for analog and digital I/O functions in standalone mode. Refer to Table 4 for connector pin assignments. Table 4. TB502 Pin Assignments Terminal Block Name Function Pin # -Vcc -Vcc (5mA) REF-...
  • Page 17 The servo routes encoder feedback through TB504 to TB506. Encoder channel A on TB504, for example, is routed to the encoder channel A pin on TB506 inside the Advanced Digital servo. The encoder and Hall sensors from the motor must not be wired to the 25-pin receptacle on the Advanced Digital servo, even though there are pins on this receptacle which reference them.

  • Page 20 Digital servo. This will result in damage to the SimpleServo. The encoder needs to have power supplied to it. A front-end controller, as well as the Advanced Digital servo, has a +5 VDC supply voltage that may be used to power the encoder. The Advanced Digital servo contains patent-pending automated switching circuitry which will power the encoder from a front- end controller if it is present (through the ENC+ pin).
  • Page 21 DETAILS 1. Step and direction/ master encoder inputs: TB506-11, 12,13,14 TB502-6, 7,8,9 You can connect a master encoder with quadrature outputs or a step and direction pair of signals to control position in step/direction operating mode. These inputs are optically isolated from rest of drive circuits and from each other.
  • Page 22 “OUT_RDY” (TB502-13), “OUT_AUX” (TB502-14). Functions the same as “READY” and “AUX” but have open-collector sink outputs referenced to drive logic common. See figure below for the electrical diagram. “READY” output Activated when the drive is ready and enabled. It is reset to an inactive state when the drive is disabled, not operational or any fault is detected.
