TMCM-142 TMCL

Firmware Manual (V1.06 / 2014-JUN-24)

Putting the TMCM-142 into operation

Here you can find basic information for putting your module into operation. Further text contains a simple
example for a TMCL

program and a short description of operating the module in direct mode.

The things you need:



TMCM-142-IF, consisting of TMCM-142 base and standard TMCM-IF adapter/interface add-on board.



Interface (RS232, RS485, USB or CAN) suitable to your TMCM-142-IF with cables



Nominal supply v24V DC (+18…+78.5V DC) for your module



A stepper motor which fit to your module, for example QSH-5718 or QSH-6018.



TMCL-IDE program and PC



Encoder optional

Precautions:



Do not connect or disconnect the TMCM-142 and the TMCM-IF while powered!



Do not connect or disconnect the motor while powered!



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.



Do not exceed the maximum power supply of 78.5V DC.



Start with power supply OFF!
