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 Kollmorgen offers 30, 60, and 100cm plastic fiber optic cables
with SERCOS interface compatible F-SMA connectors. The following
specifications provide general cable information:
Cable Characteristics Specifications
Cable Type 1mm plastic
Attenuation
≤0.18dBm/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 specification for more connector and
cabling information:
• 5.2.2 Structure of the Transmission Lines
• 5.3.3 Fiber Optic Cable
• 5.3.4 Connectors
Communications
The SERVOSTAR SERCOS interface drive offers two communication
approaches for drive configuration. The first approach is to communicate, via a
multi-axis SERCOS interface controller, all the drive parameters through the
fiber-optic ring during the CP2 and CP3 run-up stages. 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 Kollmorgen 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.
