4.2.3.1 Left and right limit switches
The TMCM-351 can be configured so that a motor has a left and a right limit switch (Figure 4.4).
The motor stops when the traveler has reached one of the limit switches.

4.2.3.2 Triple switch configuration
It is possible to program a tolerance range around the reference switch position. This is useful for a triple
switch configuration, as outlined in Figure 4.5. In that configuration two switches are used as automatic
stop switches, and one additional switch is used as the reference switch between the left stop switch and
the right stop switch. The left stop switch and the reference switch are wired together. The center switch
(travel switch) allows for a monitoring of the axis in order to detect a step loss.

Most settings of the board are done through the software. Nevertheless, a few jumpers are available for
configuration.

Figure 4.10: Configuration with jumpers
4.3.1 J1: RS485 bus termination
The board includes a 120 Ohm resistor for proper bus termination of the RS485 interface. When this jumper
is closed, the resistor will be placed between the two differential bus lines RS485+ and RS485-.
4.3.2 J2: RS232 / RS485 interface selection
This 3-pin single row header is used for selecting one of two desired serial interfaces: RS232 or RS485 using
a jumper:

4.3.3 J3: CAN bus termination
The board includes a 120 Ohm resistor for proper bus termination of the CAN interface. When this jumper is
closed, the resistor will be placed between the two differential bus lines CAN_H and CAN_L.
4.3.4 J4 –J12: Encoder input termination
For enhanced reliability differential encoder signals should be terminated properly. The board offers
termination resistors (120 Ohm) for all three encoder interface signals (a/b/n) for all three encoders. By
setting jumpers, these resistors will be placed between the differential encoder signals. Do not set these
jumpers in case encoders with single ended signals are used.
Place jumpers for
proper temrination

4.3.5 Enable all driver stages permanently
The /Shutdown input pin has to be connected to the supply voltage in order to enable the driver stages for
all three stepper motor axes. A jumper between pin 19 and pin 20 can be used to permanently enable
drivers.
