General product description
The FAULHABER Motion Control Systems described here are intended for controlled opera-
tion of various integrated base motors. They offer different functions and operating
modes, allowing complex drive tasks to be performed. Thanks to their compact design and
flexible connection options, the units can be used in a wide variety of applications and
require only basic wiring.
The Motion Control System can offer the following communication interfaces:
RS232
CANopen
RS232 and EtherCAT
Connections are also available for common or separate voltage supplies between motor
and controller, and also for a wide variety of inputs and outputs. Configuration of the
Motion Control System is performed using the FAULHABER Motion Manager V6.
The drives can be operated in the network via the CANopen or EtherCAT fieldbus interface.
In smaller setups, networking can also be performed via the RS232 interface. The Motion
Control Systems operate in the network in principle as a slave; master functionality for actu-
ating other axes is not provided. After basic commissioning via Motion Manager, the
Motion Control Systems can alternatively also be operated without communication inter-
face.
Motion Control Systems are normally secured using the tapped holes of the front panel.
Where cabling is connected axially, optionally the drive can be secured from below on a flat
base plate (see chap. 4.1, p. 16).
Analogue Hall sensors are used as feedback components.
Motion Control Systems with RS232, CANopen or EtherCAT interfaces can also be oper-
ated independently of the communication interface, if a function or a sequence pro-
gram has been programmed previously without digital command control.
