X1 – Modbus RTU (RS-485) IN and OUT

Type: RJ45 socket

RS-485 line polarization

Note: The controller is not equipped with line polarization and expects the master device to have one.
If the master device on the bus does not have line polarization of its own, a pair of resistors must be attached to the RS-485 balanced cables:
  • A pull-up resistor to a 5V voltage on the RS-485+ (D1) cable
  • A pull-down resistor to earth (GND) on the RS-485- (D0) cable
The value of these resistors must be between 450 ohm and 650 ohm. A 650 ohm resistor permits a higher number of devices on the bus.

In this case, a line polarization must be attached at a location for the entire serial bus. In general, this location should be on the master device or its connection. All other devices then no longer need to implement line polarization.

Voltage source

The operating or supply voltage supplies a battery, a transformer with rectification and filtering, or a switching power supply.

Note:
  • EMC: For a DC power supply line longer than 30 m or when using the motor on a DC bus, additional interference-suppression and protection measures are necessary.
  • ► An EMI filter is to be inserted in the DC supply line as close as possible to the controller/motor.
  • ► Long data or supply lines are to be routed through ferrites.

Permissible operating voltage

The maximum operating voltage is 50.4 V DC. If the input voltage of the controller exceeds the threshold value set in 2034h, the motor is switched off and an error triggered. Above the response threshold set in 4021h:02h, the integrated ballast circuit is activated (wirewound resistor CR257-05T15R from VITROHM with 5 W continuous output).

The minimum operating voltage is 11.4 V DC. If the input voltage of the controller falls below 10 V, the motor is switched off and an error triggered.

A charging capacitor of at least 4700 µF / 50 V (approx. 1000 µF per ampere rated current) must be connected in parallel to the supply voltage to avoid exceeding the permissible operating voltage (e.g., during braking).

X7 − Micro USB

A cable of type "micro USB" is needed for this USB connection.

S1 – termination resistor

This DIP switch switches the termination of 150 Ω between RS-485+ and RS-485- (see X1 – Modbus RTU (RS-485) IN and OUT). The "down" switch position switches termination on.

S2 – Modbus slave address and baud rate

For setting the slave address and baud rate. The value of this switch is multiplied by 16 and added to the value of switch S3; this switch thereby sets the 16s place. See chapter Communication settings.

S3 – Modbus slave address and baud rate

For setting the slave address and baud rate. The value of this switch is added to the value of switch S2; this switch thereby sets the 1s place. See chapter Communication settings.

Example

Switch S2 is set to the value 1h, switch S3 to the value Fh; the result is the value 1Fh for setting the address and baud rate.
