3 Putting the TMCM-1640 into Operation
Here you can find basic information for putting your module into operation. The text contains a simple
example for a TMCL program and a short description of operating the module in direct mode.
THINGS YOU NEED:
- TMCM-1640
- USB interface and appropriate cable or RS485 interface / adapter and appropriate cable
- Nominal supply voltage +24V DC (+12… +28.5V DC) for your module with sufficient output filtering
(to be sure add e.g. 2200µF capacitor close to power supply input of module)
- BLDC motor, e.g. one of TRINAMICs QBL4208 motors
- Encoder optional
- TMCL-IDE program and PC
PRECAUTIONS
- Do not mix up connections or short-circuit pins.
- Avoid bounding I/O wires with motor power wires as this may cause noise picked up from the motor supply.
- The power supply has to be buffered by a capacitor. Otherwise the module will be damaged!
- Do not exceed the maximum power supply of 28.5V DC.
- Do not connect or disconnect the motor while powered!
- Start with power supply OFF!
