5.1.2

 

Enable 

If a voltage is given at “Enable”, the servoamplifier switches the motor voltage to 
the winding connections. If the “Enable” input is not switched on or is connected 
to the Gnd, the power stage will be highly resistant and will be disabled. 
The “Enable” input is short-circuit protected.

DC Tacho 

 

Minimum input voltage 

2.0 V 

 

Maximum input voltage 

50 V 

 

Input resistance 

14 k

 

 
Speed control range: 
The speed range is set using Potentiometer 

P3

 

n

max

 (max. speed at maximum 

set value). 
For full speed control with ± 10 V, the tacho input voltage range must be at least 
±2 V. 
 
Example for DC-Tacho with 0.52 V / 1000 rpm: 
2.0 V tacho voltage is equivalent to a speed of approx. 3850 rpm. If the full set 
value range has been used, the lowest adjustable speed with the n

max

 potenti-

ometer is 3850 rpm. 
Lower speed ranges can be reached through a reduced set value range or by 
using a DC tacho with a higher output voltage, such as 5 V / 1000 rpm.
