stepping motor (in some cases with brake)
gears (if necessary).
The drive package must be suited to the requirements of the
positioning system (moveable mass, positioning time, etc.) as
well as to the electromechanical linear axis used.
A stepping motor controller with a 5 V signal level must be
used for operating the SPC200 (see Technical specifica
tions").
1.3.1 Stepping motor controller
The stepping motor controller forms the link between the
SPC200 as positioning controller and a stepping motor.
The signals from the positioning controller are converted by
the stepping motor controller in accordance with the motor
dependent and drivedependent settings (e.g. phase current).

1.4 Electromechanical linear drive
Linear drives are used for the electric axes. These drives con
vert the rotary movement of the stepping motor into a linear
movement of the slide. If the linear drives do not have an inte
grated guide, an additional guide must be provided.
Two different types of guides are available:
axes with spindle drive, e.g. DGE(L)...SP
axes with toothedbelt drive, e.g. DGE(L)...ZR
Please note
The maximum length of the linear drives is determined by
technical reasons. As from a certain length, spindle drives
may only be operated at limited speed and toothedbelt
drives may only be operated with limited drive torque.
1.5 Accessories
For the positioning systems Festo offers accessories suited to
the drive packages and linear drives (see Festo delivery pro
gram or catalogue).

1.6 EMERGENCY STOP concept
Please note
Check within the framework of your EMERGENCY STOP
concept, to ascertain the measures necessary for putting
your machine/system into a safe state in the event of an
EMERGENCY STOP (e.g. switching off the load supply,
operating voltage for the stepping motor controller,
switching off the compressed air).
The status of the limit switches connected to the sensor plug
is evaluated by the operating system of the SPC200.
Warning
The limit switches connected to the sensor plug are not
suitable for implementing an EMERGENCY STOP function.
Use additional separate safety limit switches if an ap
propriate EMERGENCY STOP circuit is required for your
application.

2.2 Fitting the electric axis and the stepping motor controller
Notes on fitting the electric axis and the stepping motor
controller can be found in the following documentation:
the documentation supplied with the stepping motor
controller,
the pneumatics manual for the positioning system type
P.BEATP...,
the operating instructions for the electric linear axis used,
the instructions for the components used.
Please note
By the arrangement of the limit switches and by additional
appropriate mechanical stops, make sure that the axis
always lies within the positioning range limited by the
hardware limit switches.
Use the correct type of switch for the necessary reference and
limit switches:
Sensor Contact
Reference switch N.O. =normally open
Limit switches N.C. =normally closed
2. Fitting
2.2.1 Arrangement of the sensors
Please note
Please note that:
the axis must be in the positioning range in order to
carry out reference travel.
the complete ranges outside the permitted positioning
range are covered by limit switches (the slide must
never stand between the switching range of the hard
ware limit switch and the mechanical limit stop).
the switching range of the hardware limit switch, e.g. in
the event of programming faults, must permit destruc
tivefree braking (stroke reserve).
The usual arrangement of the sensors on an electric axis with
safety limit switches is shown in the following diagram.

4.1 Procedure for commissioning
For userfriendly commissioning and programming of an
SPC200 with stepping motor indexermodule, you will require
the WinPISA software package as from version 4.3.
However, commissioning can also be carrried out by means of
the control panel.
The following list provides an overview of the steps required
for commissioning:
1. Check the stepping motor controller. Set the necessary
parameters on the stepping motor controller. Check the
function and arrangement of the limit switches.
Provide the necessary system inputs on the SPC200
(seePreparingcommissioning).
General commissioning of the SPC200:
2. First check and save the hardware configuration of the
SPC200 (see WinPISA or SPC200 manual).
Commissioning the stepping motor axes:
3. Set the axis and application parameters for the stepping
motor axes to be used.
4. Check the function of the stepping motor axes:
Inputs (reference and limit switches)
Rotational direction of the stepping motor
Positioning the axis
Reference travel
5. Check that each axis has been correctly commissioned by
means of a simple test program.
4. Commissioning
4.2 Preparations for commissioning
Check the connection to the mains power supply
S Make sure that the stepping motor controller and the
SPC200 are disconnected from the power supply.
Check the voltage for the stepping motor controller and the
24 V power supply.
Check that the stepping motor controller is correctly
installed
S Check the installation of the stepping motor controller in
accordance with the accompanying documentation.
Set the parameters of the stepping motor controller
Caution
The stepping motor and the stepping motor controller may
be damaged when under tension if the presettings are
incorrect.
Leave the main switch switched off until all the parameters
have been set correctly.
S Check the settings on the stepping motor controller
(see manual for the stepping motor controller), e.g.:
the phase current
the step size
the step mode (or Micro/Half step)
the direction of rotation
the current reduction.
4. Commissioning
The settings of the maximum phase current depend on the
stepping motor connected. The maximum permitted phase
current is specified on the type plate of the stepping motor.
Caution
Excessive currents can damage the motor.
Do not set a current higher than that specified for the
motor, as otherwise the motor will be overloaded.
Select the next lower value if the specified current cannot be
set.
Please refer to the documentation on the stepping motor con
troller for the correct presettings and for instructions on opti
mizing the settings.
Switching on the power supply on the SPC200
Please note
Make sure that the axis is always within the positioning
range defined by the limit switches when it is switched on
and before the start of reference travel.
When you have checked the installation and parametrizing of
the stepping motor controller, switch on the power supply for
the SPC200.
4. Commissioning
Electric linear axis
Proceed as described in the operating instructions for the
electric linear axis.
Check especially the position and functioning of the limit
switches.
Carry out the first tests as follows:
with the compressed air switched off (providing pneu
matic axes are connected to the SPC200)
without work load
with disconnected coupling.
If the motor continues to run when the power supply for the
stepping motor controller is switched on, switch off the power
supply immediately and check the signal connections as well
as the earth and power cables.
System inputs for commissioning
With some commissioning steps, e.g. the signals ENABLE,
START and STOP are required for controlling the axes. For
commissioning stepping motor axes e.g. with the steps:
Move to reference point
In some cases emergency movement (diagnosis and fault
treatment)
Test and start program
Instructions on providing the signals can also be found in the
SPC200 or WinPISA manuals, in some cases also in the man
ual for the field bus module.

Reference travel modes (see also Fig.4/6):
Mode Description
0 Accepting the current axis position as reference point
1 Reference travel in negative direction to reference switch
(REF) with acceptance as reference point
2 Reference travel in negative direction to negative limit
switch (LIM) with acceptance as reference point
3 Reference travel in positive direction to reference switch
(REF) with acceptance as reference point
4 Reference travel in positive direction to positive limit
switch (LIM+) with acceptance as reference point
Note that reference travel with modes 1 and 3 will result in
different reference points.
During reference travel the axis moves according to Fig.4/6.
The mechanical arrangement of the reference or limit
switches clearly determines the reference point of an axis. In
each case, the position accepted as reference point is that at
which the slide leaves the switching range of the sensor.
Caution
If an incorrect reference travel mode is set, this can lead to
collisions, as all positions of the axis refer to the reference
point.
When carrying out reference travel, make sure that the
correct mode is used.

After a limit switch fault, the axis loses the reference point.
When the fault has been eliminated, new reference travel
must be carried out with the axis.
If reference travel is started after a limit switch fault (without
Power off/on), the axis will try to leave or find the last actu
ated switch with the startstop frequency (SS). If the switch is
neither left nor found, the axis will move to the opposite limit
switch.

4.6 Instructions on operation
Take the following instructions and recommendations into
account when programming positioning systems with electric
axes:
Please note
Make sure that all stepping motor axes:
always lie within the positioning range defined by the
limit switches when they are switched on and before the
start of reference travel.
carry out reference travel when the SPC200 or the step
ping motor controller is switched on or, if applicable,
after faults.
Stepping motor axes are operated in an open control loop.
Modifications to the position of the axis when the holding
torque is switched off (e.g. stepping motor controller
switched off by EMERGENCY STOP), or lost steps" (e.g.
collision, overload) cannot therefore be taken into account.
Please note
Take into account any functions implemented within the
framework of the EMERGENCY STOP concept in the NC
programs.
Note that not all programming commands of the SPC200 are
valid for electric axes, and that individual programming com
mands for electric and pneumatic axes differ from each other
in their function (see SPC200 manual or WinPISA manual).

5.5 Emergency travel
If a limit switch is actuated, the axis can be pushed manually
into the positioning range again when the stepping motor
controller is switched off.
Alternatively, an axis can be moved into the positioning range
again with the function Emergency travel."
Caution
Movement outside the limit switches may result in a
collision.
When the device is switched on, the axis must lie within
the limit switches.
The function Emergency travel" may only be used if a limit
switch has been actuated as a result of manual positioning
or due to a program fault during the commissioning phase.
Emergency travel procedure
When the function Emergency travel" is started, the axis
moves out of the range of the actuated limit switch in the
direction of the positioning range of the axis. The axis moves
until the switching range of the limit switch is left, however for
max. 2 s (e.g. in the event of cable fracture in the limit switch
cable).
Please note
Before starting emergency travel, make sure you under
stand the function of the limit switches.
Note that the limit switch opposite cannot be recognized
during emergency travel.
Carry out emergency travel with WinPISA as follows:
1. Select the command [Stepping motor] in the menu
[Online] [Commission].
2. Select the axis identifier of the stepping motor axis in the
dialogue window Commission stepping motor."
If necessary, check the displayed status of the relevant
inputs.

Esc key or with the Enter key.
5.6 Notes on judging the positioning behaviour
Resonance effects can lead with stepping motor axes to step
losses and/or uncontrolled positioning behaviour. Deter
mined by their principle 2phase stepping motors are more
susceptible to resonance effects than 3 or 5phase stepping
motors.
The following table contains notes on judging the positioning
behaviour as well as on the possible remedy.
Effect Possible cause Possible remedy
Actual position moves" with
positioning in both directions
Loss of steps by resonance ef
fects
S Increase acceleration
S Increase startstop frequency
S Speed FX.. (FY.., FZ.., FU..) on
positioning with G01 is set too
low, increase
S Reduce motor current
S Increase maximumspeed or ref
Motor runs "roughly" and/or
produces untypical noises
Drive operates in the range of
the resonance
S Increase maximumspeed or ref
erence speed factor
S With 2phase stepping motors:
increase resolution, that means
operate the motor with step
mode 1/2 or 1/4 instead of 1/1
(note that torque will be re
duced)
