ETHERCAT COMMUNICATIONS
EtherCAT is the open, real-time Ethernet network developed by Beckhoff based on the widely used 100BASE-TX cabling system. EtherCAT enables high-
speed control of multiple axes while maintaining tight synchronization of clocks in the nodes. Data protocol is CANopen over EtherCAT (CoE) based on
DSP-402 for motion control devices.
ETHERCAT CONNECTIONS
Dual RJ-45 sockets accept standard Ethernet cables. The IN port connects to a master, or to the OUT port of a device that is ‘upstream’, between the
Xenus and the master. The OUT port connects to ‘downstream’ nodes. If Xenus is the last node on a network, only the IN port is used. No terminator is
required on the OUT port.
NET STATUS LED (ON J6)
A bi-color LED indicates the state of the EtherCAT bus.
Green and red colors alternate, and each color has a separate meaning:
Green is the “RUN” or EtherCAT State Machine: Red is the “ERR” indicator:
Off = INIT state Blinking = Invalid conguration
Blinking = PRE-OPERATIONAL Single Flash = Unsolicited state change
Single Flash = SAFE-OPERATIONAL Double Flash = Application watchdog timeout
On = OPERATIONAL
ETHERCAT LEDS (ON J7)
Green and yellow LEDs indicate the state of the EtherCAT interface:
Green is the “Link” indicator: Yellow is the “Activity” indicator:
On = Good Link On = Activity
Off = No Link Blinking Off = No Activity

AMP STATUS LED
A bi-color LED gives the state of the Accelnet drive.
Colors do not alternate, and can be solid ON or blinking:
Green/Solid = Drive OK and enabled. Will run in response to reference inputs
or EtherCAT commands.
Green/Slow-Blinking = Drive OK but NOT-enabled. Will run when enabled.
Green/Fast-Blinking = Positive or Negative limit switch active.
Drive will only move in direction not inhibited by limit switch.
Red/Solid = Transient fault condition. Drive will resume operation when fault is removed.
Red/Blinking = Latching fault. Operation will not resume until drive is Reset.

EtherCAT ADDRESS (STATION ALIAS)
In an EtherCAT network, slaves are automatically assigned addresses based on their
position in the bus. But when the device must have a positive identication that is
independent of cabling, a Station Alias is needed. In the XEL, this is provided by two
16-position rotary switches with hexadecimal encoding. These can set the address of the
drive from 0x01~0xFF (1~255 decimal). The chart shows the decimal values of the hex
settings of each switch.
Example 1: Find the switch settings for decimal address 107:
1) Find the highest number under S1 that is less than 107 and set S1 to the hex value in
the same row:
96 < 107 and 112 > 107, so S1 = 96 = Hex 6
2) Subtract 96 from the desired address to get the decimal value of switch S2 and set S2
to the Hex value in the same row:
S2 = (107 - 96) = 11 = Hex B

Accelnet EtherCAT is congured via a three-wire, full-duplex DTE RS-232 port that
operates from 9600 to 115,200 Baud. CME 2™ provides a graphic user interface (GUI)
to set up all of Accelnet EtherCAT features via a computer serial port. Connections to the
Accelnet EtherCAT RS-232 port are through J6, an RJ-11 style connector. Signal format
is full-duplex, 3-wire, DTE using RxD, TxD, and Gnd. The Accelnet EtherCAT Serial Cable
Kit (SER-CK) contains a modular cable, and an adapter that connects to a 9-pin, Sub-D
serial port connector (COM1, COM2, etc.) on PC’s and compatibles.

DESCRIPTION
The XEL has a safety feature that is designed to function under the protocol of EN 954-1. Two opto-couplers are provided which, when de-energized,
prevent the upper and lower devices in the PWM outputs from being operated by the DSP. This provides a positive OFF capability that cannot be
overridden by the DSP, its’ rmware, or associated hardware components. When the opto-couplers are activated (current is owing in the input diodes),
the DSP can control the operation and on/off state of the PWM outputs.
SAFE-OFF
FUNCTIONAL DIAGRAM
In order for the PWM outputs of the Xenus Plus to be activated, current must be owing through both opto-couplers that are connected to the ENH and
ENL terminals of J5, and the drive must be in an ENABLED state. The LED outputs on J5 connect an opto-coupler to an external LED and will conduct
current through the LED to light it whenever the PWM outputs can be activated, or the drive is in a diagnostic state. When the LED opto-coupler is OFF,
the drive is in a Safe state and the PWM outputs cannot be activated to drive a motor.
SAFE-OFF OVERRIDE
The diagram below shows connections that will energize both ENH and ENL opto-couplers. When this is done the SAFE-OFF feature is defeated and
control of the output PWM stage is under control of the DSP. This is the operating mode of CC drives that don’t have the SAFE-OFF feature.

DIGITAL INPUTS
Xenus Plus has twelve digital inputs, eleven of which have programmable functions. Input [IN1] is dedicated to the drive Enable function.
This is done to prevent accidental programming of the input in such a way that the controller could not shut it down.
Two types of RC lters are used: GP (general purpose) and HS (high speed). Input functions such as Pulse/Dir, CW/CCW, Quad A/B are
wired to inputs having the HS lters, and inputs with the GP lters are used for general purpose logic functions, limit switches, and the
motor temperature sensor. Programmable functions of the digital inputs include:
• Positive Limit switch • Step & Direction, or CU/CD
• Negative Limit switch step motor position commands
• Home switch • Quad A/B master encoder
• Drive Reset position commands
• PWM current or velocity commands • Motor over-temperature
• CAN address bits • Motion Prole Abort

DIGITAL OUTPUTS [OUT1], [OUT2]
These are open-drain MOSFETs with 1 kΩ pull-up resistors in series with a diode to +5 Vdc.
They can sink up to 1 Adc from external loads operating from power supplies to +30 Vdc.
The output functions are programmable. The active state of the outputs is programmable
to be on or off. When driving inductive loads such as a relay, an external y-back diode
is required.
The internal diode in the output is for driving PLC inputs that are opto-isolated and
connected to +24 Vdc. The diode prevents conduction from +24 Vdc through the 1 kΩ
resistor to +5 Vdc in the drive. This could turn the PLC input on, giving a false indication
of the drive output state.

QUAD A/B ENCODER WITH FAULT PROTECTION
Encoders with differential line-driver outputs provide incremental
position feedback via the A/B signals and the optional index
signal (X) gives a once per revolution position mark. The
MAX3097 receiver has differential inputs with fault protections
for the following conditions:
Short-circuits line-line: This produces a near-zero voltage
between A & /A which is below the differential fault threshold.
Open-circuit condition: The 121Ωterminator resistor will pull
the inputs together if either side (or both) is open. This will
produce the same fault condition as a short-circuit across the
inputs.
Low differential voltage detection: This is possible with very long
cable runs and a fault will occur if the differential input voltage
is < 200mV.
±15kV ESD protection: The 3097E has protection against high-
voltage discharges using the Human Body Model.
Extended common-mode range: A fault occurs if the input
common-mode voltage is outside of the range of -10V to
+13.2V

MOTOR CONNECTIONS
Motor connections are of three types: phase, feedback, and thermal sensor. The phase connections carry the drive output currents that
drive the motor to produce motion. A thermal sensor that indicates motor overtemperature is used to shut down the drive to protect
the motor. Feedback can be digital quad A/B encoder, analog sin/cos encoder, resolver or digital Halls, depending on the version of the
drive.

PRELIMINARY
SSI ABSOLUTE ENCODER
The SSI (Synchronous Serial Interface) is an interface used
to connect an absolute position encoder to a motion controller
or control system. The Accelnet drive provides a train of clock
signals in differential format to the encoder which initiates
the transmission of the position data on the subequent
clock pulses. The polling of the encoder data occurs at the
current loop frequency (16 kHz). The number of encoder
data bits and counts per motor revolution are programmable.
The hardware bus consists of four signals: SCLK, SDATA,
SDEN0, and SDEN1. SDATA is a bidirectional [three-state]
data line which requires a pull-up or pull-down resistor. Data
is sent in 8 bit bytes, LSB rst. The SCLK signal is only active
during transfers. Data is clocked out on the falling edge and
clock in on the rising edge of the Master. The other two pins
SDEN0 and SDEN1 are enable pins, active high.

MOTOR PHASE CONNECTIONS
The drive output is a three-phase PWM inverter that converts the DC buss voltage
(+HV) into three sinusoidal voltage waveforms that drive the motor phase-coils.
Cable should be sized for the continuous current rating of the motor. Motor cabling
should use twisted, shielded conductors for CE compliance, and to minimize PWM
noise coupling into other circuits. The motor cable shield should connect to motor
frame and the drive frame ground terminal (J2-1) for best results.

Hall signals are single-ended signals that provide absolute feedback within one
electrical cycle of the motor. There are three of them (U, V, & W) and they may be
sourced by magnetic sensors in the motor, or by encoders that have Hall tracks as
part of the encoder disc. They typically operate at much lower frequencies than the
motor encoder signals, and are used for commutation-initialization after startup,
and for checking the motor phasing after the amplifer has switched to sinusoidal
commutation.

MULTI-MODE ENCODER PORT
This port consists of three differential input/output channels that take their functions from the Basic Setup of the drive.
On drives with quad A/B encoder feedback, the port works as an output buffering the signals from the encoder. With resolver or sin/cos
encoder versions, the feedback is converted to quad A/B signals with programmable resolution. These signals can then be fed back
to an external motion controller that closes the position or velocity loops. As an input, the port can take quad A/B signals to produce
a dual-loop position control system or use the signals as master-encoder feedback in camming mode. In addition, the port can take
stepper command signals (CU/CD or Pulse/Direction) in differential format.

AS BUFFERED OUTPUTS FROM A DIGITAL QUADRATURE
FEEDBACK ENCODER
When using a digital quadrature feedback encoder, the A/B/X signals drive
the multi-mode port output buffers directly. This is useful in systems that use
external controllers that also need the motor feedback encoder signals because
these now come from J7, the Control connector. In addition to eliminating “Y”
cabling where the motor feedback cable has to split to connect to both controller
and motor, the buffered outputs reduce loading on the feedback cable that
could occur if the motor encoder had to drive two differential inputs in parallel,
each with it’s own 121 ohm terminating resistor.
AS EMULATED QUAD A/B/X ENCODER OUTPUTS FROM AN
ANALOG SIN/COS FEEDBACK ENCODER
Analog sin/cos signals are interpolated in the drive with programmable
resolution. The incremental position data is then converted back into digital
quadrature format which drives the multi-mode port output buffers. Some
analog encoders also produce a digital index pulse which is connected directly
to the port’s output buffer. The result is digital quadrature A/B/X signals that
can be used as feedback to an external control system.
AS A MASTER OR CAMMING ENCODER INPUT FROM A
DIGITAL QUADRATURE ENCODER
When operating in position mode the multi-mode port can accept digital
command signals from external encoders. These can be used to drive cam
tables, or as master-encoder signals when operating in a master/slave
conguration.
AS DIGITAL COMMAND INPUTS IN PULSE/DIRECTION,
PULSE-UP/PULSE-DOWN, OR
DIGITAL QUADRATURE ENCODER FORMAT
The multi-mode port can also be used when digital command signals are in a
differential format. These are the signals that typically go to [IN9] and [IN10]
when they are single-ended. But, at higher frequencies these are likely to be
differential signals in which case the multi-mode port can be used.

GROUNDING
A grounding system has three primary
functions: safety, voltage-reference, and
shielding. As a safety measure, the primary
ground at J1-3 will carry fault-currents from
the mains in the case of an internal failure
or short-circuit of electronic components.
Wiring to this is typically done with the
green conductor with yellow stripe using the
same gauge wire as that used for the mains.
The pin on the drive at J1-3 is longer than
the other pins on J1 giving it a rst-make,
last-break action so that the drive chassis is
never ungrounded when the mains power is
connected. This wire is a ‘bonding’ conductor
that should connect to an earthed ground
point and must not pass through any circuit
interrupting devices.
All of the circuits on J1, J2, and J3 are mains-
connected and must never be grounded. The
ground terminals at J1-3, J2-1, and J3-5 all
connect to the drive chassis and are isolated
from all drive internal circuits.
Signal grounding references the drive
control circuits to those of the control
system. These controls circuits typically
have their own earth connection at some
point. To eliminate ground-loops it is
recommended that the drive signal ground
be connected to the control system circuit
ground. When this is done the drive signal
voltages will be referenced to the same 0 V
level as the circuits in the control system.
Small currents ow between controller and
drive when inputs and outputs interact. The
signal ground is the path for these currents
to return to their power sources in both
controller and drive.
Shields on cables reduce emissions from the
drive for CE compliance and protect internal
circuits from interference due to external
sources of electrical noise. Because of their
smaller wire gauge, these should not be
used as part of a safety-ground system.
Motor cases can be safety-grounded either
at the motor, by earthing the frame, or by
a grounding conductor in the motor cable
that connects to J2-1. This cable should
be of the same gauge as the other motor
phase cables.
For CE compliance and operator safety,
the drive should be earthed by using
external tooth lockwashers under the
mounting screws. These will make contact
with the aluminum chassis through the
anodized nish to connect the chassis to
the equipment frame ground.
DRIVE POWER SOURCES
An external +24 Vdc power supply is
required, and powers an internal DC/DC
converter that supplies all the control
voltages for drive operation. Use of an
external supply enables CAN communication
with the drive when the mains power has
been removed.
Power distribution in Xenus Plus is divided
into four sections: +24 Vdc, CAN, signal,
and high-voltage. Each is isolated from
the other and all are isolated from the
chassis.
EXTERNAL +24 VDC
The primary side of the DC/DC converter
operates directly from the external +24
Vdc supply and is isolated from other drive
power sections. The Brake output [OUT4]
operates in this section and is referenced
to the +24 Vdc return (0V). It sinks current
from an external load connected to the
external +24 Vdc power source.
INTERNAL SIGNAL POWER
The signal power section supplies power for
the DSP controller as well as logic inputs
and outputs. Motor feedback signals such
as Halls, encoder, and temperature sensor
operate from this power source. All signal
circuits are referenced to signal ground. This
ground should connect to the control system
circuit ground or common so that drive and
controller inputs and output voltage levels
work properly with each other.
MAINS POWER
Mains power drives the high-voltage
section. It is rectied and capacitor-ltered
to produce +HV which the PWM stage
converts into voltages that drive either
three phase brushless or DC brush motors.
An internal solid-state switch together
with an external power resistor provides
dissipation during regeneration when the
mechanical energy of the motor is converted
back into electrical energy that must be
dissipated before it charges the internal
capacitors to an overvoltage condition. All
the circuits in this section are “hot”, that
is, they connect directly to the mains and
must be considered high-voltages and a
shock hazard requiring proper insulation
techniques during installation.
REGENERATION
The chart below shows the energy absorption
in W·s for a Xenus Plus drive operating at
some typical mains voltages. When the load
mechanical energy is greater than these
values an external regen resistor is available
as an accessory.

Grounding and shielding are the means of
controlling the emission of radio frequency
energy from the drive so that it does not
interfere with other electronic equipment.
The use of shielded cables to connect the
drive to motors and feedback devices is a
way of extending the chassis of the drive
out to these devices so that the conductors
carrying noise generated by the drive
are completely enclosed by a conductive
shield.
The process begins at the mains connector
of the drive, J1. The ground terminal here
has a circle around it indicating that this is
the safety or “bonding” ground connection.
This should be connected with wire that is
the same gauge as that used for the mains.
In the case of a short-circuit in the drive
the function of this ground connection is to
carry the fault current to earth ground until
the safety device (fuse or circuit breakers)
disconnects the drive from the mains. This
connection ensures that the heatplate of
the drive remains at earth potential and
eliminating a shock hazard that could occur
of the chassis were allowed to oat to the
potential of the mains.
While this connection keeps the heatplate
at earth potential the high frequency noise
generated by switching circuits in the drive
can radiate from the wire used for the
safety ground connection. In order to keep
the path between the heatplate and earth
as short as possible it’s also recommended
to mount the drive to the equipment panel
using external-toothed lock washers. These
will penetrate the anodized nish of the
heatplate (which is an electrical insulator)
and make good electrical contact with the
aluminum plate. Grounding the heatplate
in this way shortens the path from drive
to earth ground and further reduces
emissions.
The heatplate also connects directly to
the frame ground terminals on the motor,
feedback, and regen connectors. Note that
the ground symbols for these do not have
a circle around them which indicates that
these are for shielding and not not for
safety grounding. Motors and their feedback
devices (which are typically in the motor
case) should be grounded by mounting to
equipment that is grounded as a safety
ground. By connecting the shields for these
devices at the drive and at the device, the
connection is continuous and provides a
return path for radio-frequency energy to
the drive.
Notes:
1) Shielded cables required for CE are shown in the
diagram above.
2) Line lter required for CE
3) Ferrite core required for shielded cable to regen
resistor which must be in shielded enclosure.
