1.1 - INTRODUCTION
Xtrapuls
Easy™
all-digital drives with sinusoidal PWM control are servo drives that provide the control of
brushless AC motors.
The standard control interface can be:
- CANopen®
1
,
- Analog.
Series Xtrapuls
Easy™
drives are dedicated to basic applications that do not have a high level of requirements in
terms of functionalities and where cost effectiveness is very important.
The Xtrapuls
Easy™
drive can be used in following typical applications:

Axes controlled by CANopen
®
fieldbus according to the DS402 protocol,

Stand-alone operation as a sequencer with control by means of logic I/Os,

Traditional analog speed drive with +/- 10V command and A, B, Z encoder output for the position feedback.
The configuration and parameterization software tool
Gem Drive Studio allows a quick configuration of the
Xtrapuls
Easy™
drives according to the target application.
Thanks to its pluggable module layout, the XtrapulsEasy
™ DB drive - allows the user optimizing the global
solution in terms of size, weight, and functionalities integration.
1.2 - DESCRIPTION / COMPLIANCE WITH THE STANDARDS
1.2.1 - General description
The Xtrapuls
Easy™
drive can be configured in 4 feedback modes:
- Resolver
- TTL encoder with or without Hall effect sensors
- Hall effect sensors only
- Sensorless
The appropriate position sensor configuration is software selectable and saved in the drive.
When using a high resolution position sensor, this sensor ensures a high dynamic motor torque/force control and
full torque/force is available at low speed and at standstill.

With a resolver sensor feedback, the motor absolute position value over one revolution is available and the
servo motor can immediately be enabled after the drive power up.

With an incremental encoder only , a motor phasing procedure (Phasing) must be executed at each drive
power up before the motor enabling.

With an incremental e Hall Effect Sensors (HES) feedback, the motor phasing procedure is no more
necessary and the servo motor can immediately be enabled after the drive power up.

With only a Hall effect Sensor (HES) feedback, the position resolution is low, involving reduced dynamic
performances.

In sensorless mode, a motor phasing procedure is automatically executed at the drive enabling.
