Danaher Motion Kollmorgen 08/04 SERCOS Interface Setup
SERVOSTAR S Installation M-SS-001-01 Rev. T 57
6.3 Connection
The mating connector selected for the Tx and Rx ports follow the
IEC 874-2 specification, which recommends an F-SMA type
connector. A hand-tight connection is adequate.
Danaher Motion offers 30, 60, and 100 cm plastic fiber optic cables
with SERCOS interface compatible F-SMA connectors. The
following specifications provide general cable information:
Cable Characteristics Specifications
Cable Type 1 mm plastic
Attenuation
≤0.18 dBm/m
Fiber NA 0.47
Temperature -55º C to 85º C
Jacket material PVC
Jacket OD 2.2 ± 0.07 mm
Tensile Strength 7 kg
Also refer to the following IEC 61491 specifications for more
connector and cabling information:

− 5.3.3 Fiber Optic Cable
− 5.3.4 Connectors
6.4 Communication
The SERVOSTAR SERCOS interface drive offers two
communication approaches for drive configuration. The first
approach is to communicate all the drive parameters through the
fiber-optic ring during the CP2 and CP3 run-up stages via a multi-
axis SERCOS interface controller. This requires a broad
understanding of the controller functionally and knowledge of the
SERCOS interface standard and manufacturer’s IDN set. The
standard and manufacturer IDNs supported by Danaher Motion are
functionally categorized to make this method of configuring easier.
The second approach gives you the ability to configure each axis
separately through the serial port using
MOTIONLINK.
MOTIONLINK is very intuitive and guides you through the setup
stages of the configuration process. It provides interactive setup
screens for easy manipulation of the drive’s parameters while
giving you realtime monitoring and recording tools that help in
optimizing axis performance. Once performance is optimized, the
parameters can be stored in the drive’s EEPROM memory before
establishing communication through the SERCOS interface.
