Over Current Protection The amplifier also has circuitry to protect against over current If the total current from a set of 2 axes ie A and B or C and D exceeds 20 A the amplifier will be disabled The amplifier will not be re enabled until there is no longer an over current draw and then either SH command has been sent or the controller is reset Since the AMP 43040 is a trans conductance amplifier the amplifier will never go into this mode during normal operation The amplifier will be shut down regardless of the setting of OE or the presence of the HAMPERR routine NOTE If this fault occurs it is indicative of a problem at the system level An over current fault is usually due to a short across the motor leads or a short from a motor lead to ground DMC 40x0 User Manual A1 AMP 430x0 D3040 D3020 214 Over Temperature Protection The amplifier is also equipped with over temperature protection Rev A and Rev B amplifiers If the average heat sink temperature rises above 100 C then the amplifier will be disabled The over temperature condition will trigger the HAMPERR routine if included in the program on the controller The amplifier will re enable when the temperature drops below 100 C Rev C and newer amplifiers If the average heat sink temperature rises above 80 C then the amplifier will be disabled The over temperature condition will trigger the HAMPERR routine if included in the program on the controller

15. The AMP 430x0 can be put into what is called a Chopper mode The chopper mode is in contrast to the normal inverter mode in which the amplifier sends PWM power to the motor of VS In chopper mode the amplifier sends a 0 to VS PWM to the motor when moving in the forward direction and a 0 to VS PWM to the motor when moving in the negative direction This mode is set with the AU command A setting of 0 5 is Chopper mode with normal current bandwidth A setting of 1 5 is Chopper mode with high current bandwidth This mode is useful when using low inductance motors because it reduces the losses due to switching voltages across the motor windings It is recommended to use chopper mode when using motors with 200 500 uH inductance Using External Amplifiers Use connectors on top of controller to access necessary signals to run external amplifiers In order to use the full torque limit make sure the AG setting for the axes using external amplifiers are set to 0 or 1 Set the BR command to 1 for any axis that will be setup to run external amplifiers this will disable the hall error protection For more information on connecting external amplifiers see Step A in Chapter 2 ELO Input If the ELO input on the controller is triggered the amplifier will be shut down at a hardware level the motors will be essentially in a Motor Off MO state TA3 will change state and the AMPERR routine will run when the ELO input is triggered To recover fr

This mode allows arbitrary motion profiles to be defined by position velocity and time individually on all 8 axes This motion is designed for systems where the load must traverse a series of coordinates with no discontinuities in velocity By specifying the target position velocity and time to achieve those parameters the user has control over the velocity profile Taking advantage of the built in buffering the user can create virtually any profile including those with infinite path lengths Specifying PVT Segments PVT segments must be entered one axis at a time using the PVn command The PV command includes the target distance to be moved and target velocity to be obtained over the specified timeframe Positions are entered as relative moves similar to the standard PR command in units of encoder counts and velocity is entered in counts second The controller will interpolate the motion profile between subsequent PV commands using a 3rd order polynomial equation During a PV segment jerk is held constant and accelerations velocities and positions will be calculated every other sample Motion will not begin until a BT command is issued much like the standard BG command This means that the user can fill the PVT buffer for each axis prior to motion beginning The BT command will ensure that all axes begin motion simultaneously It is not required for the t value for each axis to be the same however if they are then the axes will remain co

Where the functionality of the operation of the AT command is very useful is when it is required to have a deterministic loop operating on the controller These instances range from writing PLC type scan threads to writing custom control algorithms The key to having a deterministic loop time is to have a trippoint that will wait a specified time independent of the time it took to execute the loop code In this definition the AT command is a perfect fit The below code is an example of a PLC type scan thread that runs at a 500ms loop rate A typical implementation would be to run this code in a separate thread ex XQ plcscan 2 this code will set output 3 high if inputs 1 and 2 are high and input 3 is low else output 3 will be low if input 4 is low output 1 will be high and ouput 3 will be low regardless of the states of inputs 1 2 or 3 EHu HAH H HAHAHAHA R R R R R R plcscan ATO set initial time reference scan R mask inputs 1 4 ti TIO amp F REM variables for bit 1 and bit 3 b1 0 b3 0 REM if input 4 is high set bit 1 and clear bit 3 REM ti amp 8 gets 4th bit if 4th bit is high result 8 IF ti amp 8 8 b1 1 ELSE REM ti amp 7 get lower 3 bits if 011 then result 3 IF ti amp 7 3 b3 1 ENDIF ENDIF REM set output bits 1 and 3 accordingly REM set outputs at the end for a PLC scan OB1 b1 0B3 b3 REM wait 500ms for 500 samples use AT 500 1 REM the will reset the time reference AT 500 JP
