2. Product Overview
2.1. Introduction
The IM23x-MA is a family of fully digital intelligent brushless motors, based on the latest DSP
technology and they offer unprecedented intelligent motor performance combined with an
embedded motion controller.
All intelligent motors perform position, speed or torque control and work in either single-, multi-
axis or stand-alone configurations. Thanks to the embedded motion controller, the IM23x-MA
intelligent motors combine controller, intelligent motor and PLC functionality in a single compact
unit and are capable to execute complex motions without requiring intervention of an external
motion controller. Using the high-level Technosoft Motion Language (TML) the following
operations can be executed directly at intelligent motor level:

Setting various motion modes (profiles, PVT, PT, electronic gearing1 or camming 1 , etc.)
Changing the motion modes and/or the motion parameters
Executing homing sequences 2
Controlling the program flow through:
Conditional jumps and calls of TML functions
TML interrupts generated on pre-defined or programmable conditions
(protections triggered, transitions on limit switch or capture inputs, etc.)
Waits for programmed events to occur
Handling of digital I/O and analogue input signals
Executing arithmetic and logic operations
Performing data transfers between axes
Controlling motion of an axis from another one via motion commands sent between
axes
Sending commands to a group of axes (multicast). This includes the possibility to start
simultaneously motion sequences on all the axes from the group
Synchronizing all the axes from a network
Using EasyMotion Studio for TML programming you can really distribute the intelligence
between the master and the intelligent motors in complex multi-axis applications, reducing both
the development time and the overall communication requirements. For example, instead of trying
to command each movement of an axis, you can program the intelligent motors using TML to
execute complex motion tasks and inform the master when these tasks are done. Thus, for each
axis control the master job may be reduced at: calling TML functions stored in the intelligent motor
EEPROM (with possibility to abort their execution if needed) and waiting for a message, which
confirms the TML functions execution.
Apart from a CANopen master, the IM23x-MA intelligent motors can also be controlled from a PC
or PLC using the family of TML_LIB motion libraries.
For all motion programming options, the IM23x-MA commissioning for your application is done
using EasySetUp.

3.2.9.2 Recommendations for Supply Wiring
Use short, thick wires between the IM23x-MA and the motor power supply. If the wires are longer
than 2 meters, use twisted wires for the supply and ground return. For wires longer than 20
meters, add a capacitor of at least 1000 μF (rated at an appropriate voltage) right on the terminals
of the IM23x-MA.
3.2.9.3 Recommendations to limit over-voltage during braking
During abrupt motion brakes or reversals the regenerative energy is injected into the motor power
supply. This may cause an increase of the motor supply voltage (depending on the power supply
characteristics). If the voltage bypasses the UMAX value, the intelligent motor over-voltage
protection is triggered and the intelligent motor power stage is disabled.
In order to avoid this situation add a capacitor on the motor supply big enough to absorb the
overall energy flowing back to the supply. The capacitor must be rated to a voltage equal or
bigger than the maximum expected over-voltage and can be sized with the formula:

2 × EM
C≥ − CDrive
2 2
UMAX − UNOM
where:
UMAX - is the over-voltage protection limit expressed in [V]. You can read this value in the
“Drive Info” dialogue, which can be opened from the “Drive Setup”.
CDrive - is the intelligent motor internal capacitance ( 220 μF)
UNOM - is nominal motor supply voltage expressed in [V]. You can read this value in the
“Drive Info” dialogue, which can be opened from the “Drive Setup”.
EM - the overall energy flowing back to the supply in Joules. In case of a rotary motor
and load,
EM can be computed with the formula:
1 2 R t − t dϖ M
(JM + JL )ϖM + (mM + mL )g(hinitial - h final ) − 3IM
EM = Ph d TF
2 2
Kinetic energy Potential energy Copper losses Friction losses
where:
JM – total rotor inertia = 119 ·10-7 kgm2 (IM232-MA) / 173 ·10-7kgm2 (IM233-MA)
JL – total load inertia as seen at motor shaft after transmission [kgm2]
ϖM – motor angular speed before deceleration [rad/s]
mM – motor mass [kg] – when motor is moving in a non-horizontal plane
mL – load mass [kg] – when load is moving in a non-horizontal plane
g – gravitational acceleration i.e. 9.8 [m/s2]
hinitial – initial system altitude [m]
hfinal – final system altitude [m]
IM – motor current during deceleration [ARMS/phase]
RPh – motor phase resistance [Ω]
td – time to decelerate [s]
TF – total friction torque as seen at motor shaft [Nm] – includes load and transmission
In case of a linear motor and load, the motor inertia JM and the load inertia JL will be replaced by
the motor mass and the load mass measured in [kg], the angular speed ϖM will become linear
speed measured in [m/s] and the friction torque TF will become friction force measured in [N].

Remark: If the above computation of EM can’t be done due to missing data, a good starting value
for the capacitor can be 10 000 μF / 100V.

a) If you build the serial cable, you can use a 3-wire shield cable with shield connected to
BOTH ends. Do not use the shield as GND. The ground wire (pin 14 of J1) must be
included inside the shield, like the RxD and TxD signals
b) Do not rely on an earthed PC to provide the IM23x-MA GND connection! The intelligent
motor must be earthed through a separate circuit. Most communication problems are
caused by the lack of such connection
c) Always power-off all the IM23x-MA supplies before inserting/removing the RS-232 serial
connector.

Figure 3.13. CAN connection
Remarks:
1. The CAN network requires a 120-Ohm terminator. This is not included on the board.
See Figure 3.22.
2. CAN signals are insulated from other IM23x-MA circuits. Thus, it requires an external
supply to operate the CAN transceiver.

a) Build CAN network using cables with 2-pairs of twisted wires (2 wires/pair) as follows:
one pair for CAN_H with CAN_L and the other pair for CAN_V+ with CAN_GND. The
cable impedance must be 105 ... 135 ohms (120 ohms typical) and a capacitance below
30pF/meter.
b) Whenever possible, use daisy-chain links between the CAN nodes. Avoid using stubs. A
stub is a "T" connection, where a derivation is taken from the main bus. When stubs can’t
be avoided keep them as short as possible. For 1 Mbit/s (worst case), the maximum stub
length must be below 0.3 meters.
c) The 120Ω termination resistors must be rated at 0.2W minimum. Do not use winded
resistors, which are inductive.

4. Step 2. Drive Setup
4.1. Installing EasySetUp
EasySetUp is a PC software platform for the setup of the Technosoft intelligent motors. It can be
downloaded free of charge from Technosoft web page. EasySetUp comes with an Update via
Internet tool through which you can check if your software version is up-to-date, and when
necessary download and install the latest updates. EasySetUp includes a firmware programmer
through which you can update your intelligent motor firmware to the latest revision.
EasySetUp can be installed independently or together with EasyMotion Studio platform for
motion programming using TML. You will need EasyMotion Studio only if you plan to use the
advance features presented in Section 5.3 Combining CANopen /or other host with TML. A demo
version of EasyMotion Studio including the fully functional version of EasySetUp can be
downloaded free of charge from Technosoft web page.
On request, EasySetUp can be provided on a CD too. In this case, after installation, use the
update via internet tool to check for the latest updates. Once you have started the installation
package, follow its indications.
4.2. Getting Started with EasySetUp

Using EasySetUp you can quickly setup a intelligent motor for your application. The intelligent
motor can be:
directly connected with your PC via a serial RS 232 link
any intelligent motor from a CANbus network where the PC is serially linked with one of
the other intelligent motors.
The output of EasySetUp is a set of setup data, which can be downloaded into the intelligent
motor EEPROM or saved on your PC for later use.
EasySetUp includes a set of evaluation tools like the Data Logger, the Control Panel and the
Command Interpreter which help you to quickly measure, check and analyze your intelligent
motor commissioning.
EasySetUp works with setup data. A setup contains all the information needed to configure and
parameterize a Technosoft intelligent motor. This information is preserved in the intelligent motor
EEPROM in the setup table. The setup table is copied at power-on into the RAM memory of the
intelligent motor and is used during runtime. With EasySetUp it is also possible to retrieve the
complete setup information from a intelligent motor previously programmed.
Note that with EasySetUp you do only your intelligent motor/motor commissioning. For motion
programming you have the following options:
Use a CANopen master (for IM23x-MA CANopen executions)
Use EasyMotion Studio to create and download a TML program into the intelligent
motor/motor memory

Use one of the TML_LIB motion libraries to control the intelligent motors/motors from
your host/master. If your host is a PC, TML_LIB offers a collection of high level motion
functions which can be called from applications written in C/C++, Visual Basic, Delphi
Pascal or LabVIEW. If your host is a PLC, TML_LIB offers a collection of function blocks
for motion programming, which are IEC61131-3 compatible and can be integrated in
your PLC program.
Implement on your master the TML commands you need to send to the intelligent
motors/motors using one of the supported communication channels. The implementation
must be done according with Technosoft communication protocols.
Combine TML programming at intelligent motor level with one of the other options (see
Section 5.3)
4.2.1. Establish communication

EasySetUp starts with an empty window from where you can create a New setup, Open a
previously created setup which was saved on your PC, or Upload the setup from the intelligent
motor/motor.

Before selecting one of the above options, you need to establish the communication with the
intelligent motor you want to commission. Use menu command Communication | Setup to
check/change your PC communication settings. Press the Help button of the dialogue opened.
Here you can find detailed information about how to setup your intelligent motor and do the
connections. Power on the intelligent motor, then close the Communication | Setup dialogue with
OK. If the communication is established, EasySetUp displays in the status bar (the bottom line)
the text “Online” plus the axis ID of your intelligent motor/motor and its firmware version.
Otherwise the text displayed is “Offline” and a communication error message tells you the error
type. In this case, return to the Communication | Setup dialogue, press the Help button and check
troubleshoots
Remark: When first started, EasySetUp tries to communicate via RS-232 and COM1 with a
intelligent motor having axis ID=255 (default communication settings). If your intelligent motor is
powered with all the DIP switches OFF and it is connected to your PC port COM1 via an RS-232
cable, the communication shall establish automatically. If the intelligent motor has a different axis
ID and you don’t know it, select in the Communication | Setup dialogue at “Axis ID of intelligent
motor/motor connected to PC” the option Autodetected.
4.2.2. Setup intelligent motor/motor
Press New button and select your intelligent motor type.

The selection continues with the type of the intelligent motor (for example: the IM232-MA
CANopen).
The selection opens 2 setup dialogues: for Motor Setup and for Drive setup through which you
can configure and parameterize a Technosoft intelligent motor, plus several predefined control
panels customized for the product selected.

In the Motor setup dialogue you can see the data of the brushless motor and the associate
sensor (incremental encoder).
In the Drive setup dialogue you can configure and parameterize the intelligent motor for your
application. In each dialogue you will find a Guideline Assistant, which will guide you through the
whole process of introducing and/or checking your data. Close the Drive setup dialogue with OK
to keep all the changes regarding the motor and the intelligent motor setup.
4.2.3. Download setup data to intelligent motor/motor
Press the Download to Drive/Motor button to download your setup data in the
intelligent motor/motor EEPROM memory in the setup table. From now on, at each power-on, the
setup data is copied into the intelligent motor/motor RAM memory which is used during runtime.
It is also possible to Save the setup data on your PC and use it in other
applications.

To summarize, you can define or change the setup data in the following ways:
create a new setup data by going through the motor and intelligent motor dialogues
use setup data previously saved in the PC
upload setup data from a intelligent motor/motor EEPROM memory
4.2.4. Evaluate intelligent motor/motor behaviour (optional)

You can use the Data Logger or the Control Panel evaluation tools to quickly measure and
analyze your application behavior. In case of errors like protections triggered, use the Drive
Status control panel to find the cause.
4.3. Changing the intelligent motor Axis ID
The axis ID of an IM23x-MA intelligent motor can be set software – any value between 1 and 255,
stored in the setup table.
The axis ID is initialized at power on, using the following algorithm:
a) If a valid setup table exists, with the value read from it. This value can be an axis number 1
to 255

b) If the setup table is invalid, with the last value set with a valid setup table. This value can
be an axis number 1 to 255
Remark: If a intelligent motor axis ID was previously set by software and its value is not anymore
known, you can find it by selecting in the Communication | Setup dialogue at “Axis ID of intelligent
motor/motor connected to PC” the option Autodetected. Apply this solution only if this intelligent
motor is connected directly with your PC via an RS-232 link. If this intelligent motor is part of a
CANbus network and the PC is serially connected with another intelligent motor, use the menu
command Communication | Scan Network
4.4. Setting CANbus rate
The IM23x-MA intelligent motors can work with the following rates on the CAN: 125kHz, 250kHz,
500KHz, 1MHz. In the Drive Setup dialogue you can choose the initial CAN rate after power on.
This information is stored in the setup table. The CAN rate is initialized using the following
algorithm:
If a valid setup table exists, with the CAN rate value read from it. This can be any of the supported
rates or can indicate to use the firmware default (F/W default) value, which is 500kHz
If the setup table is invalid, with the last CAN rate value set with a valid setup table. This can be
any of the supported rates or can indicate to use the firmware default (F/W default) value.

If there is no CAN rate value set by a valid setup table, with the firmware default value i.e. 500kHz
4.5. Creating an Image File with the Setup Data

Once you have validated your setup, you can create with the menu command Setup | Create
EEPROM Programmer File a software file (with extension .sw) which contains all the setup data
to write in the EEPROM of your intelligent motor.
A software file is a text file that can be read with any text editor. It contains blocks of data
separated by an empty raw. Each block of data starts with the block start address, followed by
data values to place in ascending order at consecutive addresses: first data – to write at start
address, second data – to write at start address + 1, etc. All the data are hexadecimal 16- bit
values (maximum 4 hexadecimal digits). Each raw contains a single data value. When less then 4
hexadecimal digits are shown, the value must be right justified. For example 92 represent 0x0092.
The .sw file can be programmed into a intelligent motor:
from a CANopen master, using the communication objects for writing data into the
intelligent motor EEPROM
from a host PC or PLC, using the TML_LIB functions for writing data into the intelligent
motor EEPROM
using the EEPROM Programmer tool, which comes with EasySetUp but may also be
installed separately. The EEPROM Programmer was specifically designed for repetitive
fast and easy programming of .sw files into the Technosoft intelligent motors during
production.

5. Step 3. Motion Programming
5.1. Using a CANopen Master (for IM23x-MA CANopen executions)
The IM23x-MA intelligent motor supports the CiA draft standard DS-301 v4.02 CANopen
Application Layer and Communication Profile. It also conforms with the CiA draft standard
proposal DSP-402 v2.0 CANopen Device Profile for Drives and Motion Control. For details see
CANopen Programming manual (part no. P091.063.UM.xxxx)
5.1.1. DS-301 Communication Profile Overview

The IM23x-MA intelligent motor accepts the following basic services and types of communication
objects of the CANopen communication profile DS 301 v4.02:
Service Data Object (SDO)
Service Data Objects (SDOs) are used by CANopen master to access any object from the
intelligent motor’s Object Dictionary. Both expedited and segmented SDO transfers are supported
(see DS301 v4.02 for details). SDO transfers are confirmed services. The SDOs are typically
used for intelligent motor configuration after power-on, for PDOs mapping and for infrequent low
priority communication between the CANopen master with the intelligent motors.
Process Data Object (PDO)
Process Data Objects (PDO) are used for high priority, real-time data transfers between
CANopen master and the intelligent motors. The PDOs are unconfirmed services which are
performed with no protocol overhead. Transmit PDOs are used to send data from the intelligent
motor, and receive PDOs are used to receive on to the intelligent motor. The IM23x-MA accepts 4
transmit PDOs and 4 receive PDOs. The contents of the PDOs can be set according with the
application needs using the dynamic PDO-mapping. This operation can be done during the
intelligent motor configuration phase using SDOs.
Synchronization Object (SYNC)
The SYNC message provides the basic network clock, as the SYNC producer broadcasts the
synchronization object periodically. The service is unconfirmed. The IM23x-MA supports both
SYNC consumer and producer.
Time Stamp Object (TIME)
The Time Stamp Object is not supported by the IM23x-MA device.
Emergency Object (EMCY)
Emergency objects are triggered by the occurrence of a intelligent motor internal error situation.
An emergency object is transmitted only once per ‘error event’. As long as no new errors occur,
the intelligent motor will not transmit further emergency objects.
Network Management Objects (NMT)
The Network Management is node oriented and follows a master-slave structure. NMT objects
are used for executing NMT services. Through NMT services the intelligent motor can be
initialized, started, monitored, reset or stopped. The IM23x-MA is a NMT slave in a CANopen
network.

Module Control Services – through these unconfirmed services, the NMT master
controls the state of the intelligent motor. The following services are implemented: Start
Remote Node, Stop Remote Node, Enter Pre-Operational, Reset Node, Reset
Communication
Error Control Services – through these services the NMT master detects failures in a
CAN-based network. Both error control services defined by DS301 v4.02 are supported
by the IM23x-MA: Node Guarding (including Life Guarding) and Heartbeat
Bootup Service - through this service, the intelligent motor indicates that it has been
properly initialized and is ready to receive commands from a master
5.1.2. TechnoCAN Extension (for IM23x-MA CAN execution)

In order to take full advantage of the powerful Technosoft Motion Language (TML) built into the
IM23x-MA, Technosoft has developed an extension to CANopen, called TechnoCAN through
which TML commands can be exchanged with the intelligent motors. Thanks to TechnoCAN you
can inspect or reprogram any of the Technosoft intelligent motors from a CANopen network using
EastSetUp or EasyMotion Studio and an RS-232 link between your PC and anyone of the
intelligent motors.
TechnoCAN uses only identifiers outside of the range used by the default by the CANopen
predefined connection set (as defined by CiA DS301 v4.02). Thus, TechnoCAN protocol and
CANopen protocol can co-exist and communicate simultaneously on the same physical CAN bus,
without disturbing each other.
5.1.3. DSP-402 and Manufacturer Specific Device Profile Overview

The IM23x-MA supports the following CiA DSP402 v2.0 modes of operation:
Profile position mode
Profile velocity mode
Homing mode
Interpolated position mode
Additional to these modes, there are also several manufacturer specific modes defined:
External reference modes (position, speed or torque)
Electronic gearing position mode
5.1.4. Checking Setup Data Consistency

During the configuration phase, a CANopen master can quickly verify using the checksum objects
and a reference .sw file (see 4.5 and 5.2.4 for details) whether the non-volatile EEPROM memory
of an IM23x-MA intelligent motor contains the right information. If the checksum reported by the
intelligent motor doesn’t match with that computed from the .sw file, the CANopen master can
download the entire .sw file into the intelligent motor EEPROM using the communication objects
for writing data into the intelligent motor EEPROM.

5.2. Using the built-in Motion Controller and TML
One of the key advantages of the Technosoft intelligent motors is their capability to execute
complex motions without requiring an external motion controller. This is possible because
Technosoft intelligent motors offer in a single compact package both a state of art digital
intelligent motor and a powerful motion controller.
5.2.1. Technosoft Motion Language Overview

Programming motion directly on a Technosoft intelligent motor requires creating and downloading
a TML (Technosoft Motion Language) program into the intelligent motor memory. The TML
allows you to:
Set various motion modes (profiles, PVT, PT, electronic gearing or camming 13 , etc.)
Change the motion modes and/or the motion parameters
Execute homing sequences 14
Control the program flow through:
• Conditional jumps and calls of TML functions
• TML interrupts generated on pre-defined or programmable conditions (protections
triggered, transitions on limit switch or capture inputs, etc.)
• Waits for programmed events to occur
Handle digital I/O and analogue input signals
Execute arithmetic and logic operations
Perform data transfers between axes
Control motion of an axis from another one via motion commands sent between axes
Send commands to a group of axes (multicast). This includes the possibility to start
simultaneously motion sequences on all the axes from the group
Synchronize all the axes from a network
In order to program a motion using TML you need EasyMotion Studio software platform.
5.2.2. Installing EasyMotion Studio

EasyMotion Studio is an integrated development environment for the setup and motion
programming of Technosoft intelligent intelligent motors. It comes with an Update via Internet
tool through which you can check if your software version is up-to-date, and when necessary
download and install the latest updates.
A demo version of EasyMotion Studio including the fully functional version of EasySetUp
can be downloaded free of charge from Technosoft web page.
13
Optional for the IM23x-MA CANopen executions
14
The customization of the homing routines is available only for IM23x-MA CAN executions

EasyMotion Studio is delivered on a CD. Once you have started the installation package, follow
its indications. After installation, use the update via internet tool to check for the latest updates.
Alternately, you can first install the demo version and then purchase a license. By introducing the
license serial number in the menu command Help | Enter registration info…, you can transform
the demo version into a fully functional version.
5.2.3. Getting Started with EasyMotion Studio

Using EasyMotion Studio you can quickly do the setup and the motion programming of a
Technosoft a intelligent motor according with your application needs. The intelligent motor can be:
• directly connected with your PC via a serial RS 232 link
• any intelligent motor from a CANbus network where the PC is serially linked with one of
the other intelligent motors.
The output of the EasyMotion Studio is a set of setup data and a motion program, which can be
downloaded to the intelligent motor/motor EEPROM or saved on your PC for later use.
EasyMotion Studio includes a set of evaluation tools like the Data Logger, the Control Panel and
the Command Interpreter which help you to quickly develop, test, measure and analyze your
motion application.
EasyMotion Studio works with projects. A project contains one or several Applications.
Each application describes a motion system for one axis. It has 2 components: the Setup data
and the Motion program and an associated axis number: an integer value between 1 and 255. An
application may be used either to describe:
1. One axis in a multiple-axis system
2. An alternate configuration (set of parameters) for the same axis.
In the first case, each application has a different axis number corresponding to the axis ID of the
intelligent motors/motors from the network. All data exchanges are done with the intelligent
motor/motor having the same address as the selected application. In the second case, all the
applications have the same axis number.
The setup component contains all the information needed to configure and parameterize a
Technosoft intelligent motor. This information is preserved in the intelligent motor/motor EEPROM
in the setup table. The setup table is copied at power-on into the RAM memory of the intelligent
motor/motor and is used during runtime.
The motion component contains the motion sequences to do. These are described via a TML
(Technosoft Motion Language) program, which is executed by the intelligent motors/motors built-
in motion controller.
5.2.3.1 Create a new project
EasyMotion Studio starts with an empty window from where you can create a new project or open
a previously created one.

When you start a new project, EasyMotion Studio automatically creates a first application.
Additional applications can be added later. You can duplicate an application or insert one defined
in another project.
Press New button to open the “New Project” dialogue. Set the axis
number for your first application equal with your intelligent motor/motor axis ID. The initial value
proposed is 255 which is the default axis ID of the intelligent motors.

Press New button and select your intelligent motor type (for example the IM232-MA CAN
product).
Click on your selection. EasyMotion Studio opens the Project window where on the left side you
can see the structure of a project. At beginning both the new project and its first application are
named “Untitled”. The application has 2 components: S Setup and M Motion (program).

5.2.3.2 Step 2 Establish communication
If you have a intelligent motor/motor connected with your PC, now its time to check the
communication. Use menu command Communication | Setup to check/change your PC
communication settings. Press the Help button of the dialogue opened. Here you can find
detailed information about how to setup your intelligent motor/motor and the connections. Power
on the intelligent motor, then close the Communication | Setup dialogue with OK. If the
communication is established, EasyMotion Studio displays in the status bar (the bottom line) the
text “Online” plus the axis ID of your intelligent motor/motor and its firmware version. Otherwise
the text displayed is “Offline” and a communication error message tells you the error type. In this
case, return to the Communication | Setup dialogue, press the Help button and check
troubleshoots.
Remark: When first started, EasyMotion Studio tries to communicate via RS-232 and COM1 with
a intelligent motor having axis ID=255 (default communication settings). If your intelligent motor
is powered with all the DIP switches OFF and it is connected to your PC port COM1 via an RS-
232 cable, the communication shall establish automatically.

5.2.3.3 Setup intelligent motor/motor
In the project window left side, select “S Setup”, to access the setup data for your application.
Press View/Modify button . This opens 2 setup dialogues: for Motor

Setup and for Drive Setup (same like on EasySetUp) through which you can configure and
parameterize a Technosoft intelligent motor. In the Motor setup dialogue you can introduce the
data of your motor and the associated sensors. Data introduction is accompanied by a series of
tests having as goal to check the connections to the intelligent motor and/or to determine or
validate a part of the motor and sensors parameters. In the Drive setup dialogue you can
configure and parameterize the intelligent motor for your application. In each dialogue you will find
a Guideline Assistant, which will guide you through the whole process of introducing and/or
checking your data.

Press the Download to Drive/Motor button to download your setup
data in the intelligent motor/motor EEPROM memory in the setup table. From now on, at each
power-on, the setup data is copied into the intelligent motor/motor RAM memory which is used
during runtime. It is also possible to save the setup data on your PC and use it in other
applications. Note that you can upload the complete setup data from a intelligent motor/motor.
To summarize, you can define or change the setup data of an application in the following ways:
create a new setup data by going through the motor and intelligent motor dialogues
use setup data previously saved in the PC
upload setup data from a intelligent motor/motor EEPROM memory
5.2.3.4 Program motion
In the project window left side, select “M Motion”, for motion programming. This automatically
activates the Motion Wizard.
The Motion Wizard offers you the possibility to program all the motion sequences using high level
graphical dialogues which automatically generate the corresponding TML instructions. Therefore
with Motion Wizard you can develop motion programs using almost all the TML instructions

without needing to learn them. A TML program includes a main section, followed by the
subroutines used: functions, interrupt service routines and homing procedures 15 . The TML
program may also include cam tables used for electronic camming applications 16 .
When activated, Motion Wizard adds a set of toolbar buttons in the project window just below the
title. Each button opens a programming dialogue. When a programming dialogue is closed, the
associated TML instructions are automatically generated. Note that, the TML instructions
generated are not a simple text included in a file, but a motion object. Therefore with Motion
Wizard you define your motion program as a collection of motion objects.
The major advantage of encapsulating programming instructions in motion objects is that you can
very easily manipulate them. For example, you can:
Save and reuse a complete motion program or parts of it in other applications
Add, delete, move, copy, insert, enable or disable one or more motion objects
Group several motion objects and work with bigger objects that perform more complex
functions
As a starting point, push for example the leftmost Motion Wizard button – Trapezoidal profiles,
and set a position or speed profile. Then press the Run button. At this point the following
operations are done automatically:
A TML program is created by inserting your motion objects into a predefined template
The TML program is compiled and downloaded to the intelligent motor/motor
The TML program execution is started
For learning how to send TML commands from your host/master, using one of the communication
channels and protocols supported by the intelligent motors use menu command Application |
Binary Code Viewer… Using this tool, you can get the exact contents of the messages to send
and of those expected to be received as answers.
5.2.3.5 Evaluate motion application performances
EasyMotion Studio includes a set of evaluation tools like the Data Logger, the Control Panel and
the Command Interpreter which help you to quickly measure and analyze your motion
application.
5.2.4. Creating an Image File with the Setup Data and the TML Program
Once you have validated your application, you can create with the menu command Application |
Create EEPROM Programmer File a software file (with extension .sw) which contains all the
data to write in the EEPROM of your intelligent motor. This includes both the setup data and the
motion program. For details regarding the .sw file format and how it can be programmed into a
intelligent motor, see paragraph 4.5
15
The customization of the interrupt service routines and homing routines is available only for IM23x-MA CAN executions
16
Optional for the IM23x-MA CANopem executions

5.3. Combining CANopen /or other host with TML
Due to its embedded motion controller, a IM23x-MA offers many programming solutions that may
simplify a lot the task of a CANopen master. This paragraph overviews a set of advanced
programming features which arise when combining TML programming at intelligent motor level
with CANopen master control. A detailed description of these advanced programming features is
included in the CANopen Programming (part no. P091.063.UM.xxxx) manual. All features
presented below require usage of EasyMotion Studio as TML programming tool
Remark: If you don’t use the advanced features presented below you don’t need EasyMotion
Studio. In this case the IM23x-MA is treated like a standard CANopen intelligent motor, whose
setup is done using EasySetUp.
5.3.1. Using TML Functions to Split Motion between Master and Drives
With Technosoft intelligent intelligent motors you can really distribute the intelligence between a
CANopen master and the intelligent motors in complex multi-axis applications. Instead of trying to
command each step of an axis movement, you can program the intelligent motors using TML to
execute complex tasks and inform the master when these are done. Thus for each axis, the
master task may be reduced at: calling TML functions (with possibility to abort their execution)
stored in the intelligent motors EEPROM and waiting for a message, which confirms the
finalization of the TML functions execution.
5.3.2. Executing TML programs

The distributed control concept can go one step further. You may prepare and download into a
intelligent motor a complete TML program including functions, homing procedures 17 , etc. The
TML program execution can be started by simply writing a value in a dedicated object,
5.3.3. Loading Automatically Cam Tables Defined in EasyMotion Studio

The IM23x-MA offers others motion modes like 18 : electronic gearing, electronic camming, external
modes with analogue or digital reference etc. When electronic camming is used, the cam tables
can be loaded in the following ways:
a) The master downloads the cam points into the intelligent motor active RAM memory after
each power on;
b) The cam points are stored in the intelligent motor EEPROM and the master commands
their copy into the active RAM memory
c) The cam points are stored in the intelligent motor EEPROM and during the intelligent
motor initialization (transition to Ready to Switch ON status) are automatically copied from
EEPROM to the active RAM
For the last 2 options the cam table(s) are defined in EasyMotion Studio and are included in the
information stored in the EEPROM together with the setup data and the TML programs/functions.
17
The customization of the interrupt service routines and homing routines is available only for IM23x-MA CAN executions
18

Remark: The cam tables are included in the .sw file generated with EasyMotion Studio.
Therefore, the intelligent motors can check the cam presence in the intelligent motor EEPROM
using the same procedure as for testing of the setup data.
5.3.4. Customizing the Homing Procedures (for IM23x-MA CAN executions)

The IM23x-MA supports all homing modes defined in DSP-402 device profile. If needed, any of
these homing modes can be customized. In order to do this you need to select the Homing
Modes from your EasyMotion Studio application and in the right side to set as “User defined” one
of the Homing procedures. Following this operation the selected procedure will occur under
Homing Modes in a subtree, with the name HomeX where X is the number of the selected
homing.
If you click on the HomeX procedure, on the right side you’ll see the TML function implementing it.
The homing routine can be customized according to your application needs. It’s calling name and
method remain unchanged.
5.3.5. Customizing the Drive Reaction to Fault Conditions (for IM23x-MA CAN
executions)
Similarly to the homing modes, the default service routines for the TML interrupts can be
customized according to your application needs. However, as most of these routines handle the
intelligent motor reaction to fault conditions, it is mandatory to keep the existent functionality while
adding your application needs, in order to preserve the correct protection level of the intelligent
motor. The procedure for modifying the TML interrupts is similar with that for the homing modes.

5.4. Using Motion Libraries for PC-based Systems
A TML Library for PC is a collection of high-level functions allowing you to control from a PC a
network of Technosoft intelligent intelligent motors. It is an ideal tool for quick implementation on
PCs of motion control applications with Technosoft products.
With the TML Motion Library functions you can: communicate with a intelligent motor / motor via
any of its supported channels (RS-232, CAN-bus, etc.), send motion commands, get
automatically or on request information about intelligent motor / motor status, check and modify its
setup parameters, read inputs and set outputs, etc.
The TML Motion Library can work under a Windows or Linux operating system. Implemented as
a .dll/.so, it can be included in an application developed in C/C++/C#, Visual Basic, Delphi
Pascal or Labview.
Using a TML Motion Library for PC, you can focus on the main aspects of your application, while
the motion programming part can be reduced to calling the appropriate functions and getting the
confirmation when the task was done.
All Technosoft's TML Motion Libraries for PCs are provided with EasySetUp.
5.5. Using Motion Libraries for PLC-based Systems

A TML Motion Library for PLC is a collection of high-level functions and function blocks allowing
you to control from a PLC the Technosoft intelligent intelligent motors. The motion control function
blocks are developed in accordance with the PLC IEC61131-3 standard and represent an ideal
tool for quick implementation on PLCs of motion control applications with Technosoft products.
With the TML Motion Library functions you can: communicate with a intelligent motor/motor via
any of its supported channels, send motion commands, get automatically or on request
information about intelligent motor/motor status, check and modify its setup parameters, read
inputs and set outputs, etc. Depending on the PLC type, the communication is done either directly
with the CPU unit, or via a CANbus or RS-232 communication module.
Using a TML Motion Library for PLC, you can focus on the main aspects of your PLC application,
while the motion programming part can be reduced to calling the appropriate functions and
monitoring the confirmations that the task was done.
As Technosoft intelligent motors can execute a greater number of motion modes than those
introduced by the PLC IEC61131-3 standard, the TML Motion Libraries for PLCs include
additional function blocks to support them. All these blocks have been designed using the
guidelines described in the PLC IEC61131-3 standards, so they can be used on any
developmemnt platform that is IEC 61136 compliant.
All Technosoft's TML Motion Libraries for PLC are provided with EasySetUp.

6. Scaling factors
Technosoft intelligent motors work with parameters and variables represented in the intelligent
motor internal units (IU). These correspond to various signal types: position, speed, current,
voltage, etc. Each type of signal has its own internal representation in IU and a specific scaling
factor. This chapter presents the intelligent motor internal units and their relation with the
international standard units (SI).
In order to easily identify them, each internal unit has been named after its associated signal. For
example the position units are the internal units for position, the speed units are the internal
units for speed, etc.
6.1. Position units

The internal position units are encoder counts. The correspondence with the load position in SI
units 19 is:
2× π
Load _ Position[SI] = × Motor _ Position[IU]
4 × No _ encoder _ lines × Tr
where:
No_encoder_lines – is the rotary encoder number of lines per revolution
Encoder_accuracy – is the linear encoder accuracy i.e. distance in [m] between 2 pulses
Tr – transmission ratio between the motor displacement in SI units and load displacement in SI
units
6.2. Speed units

The internal speed units are encoder counts / (slow loop sampling period). The correspondence
with the load speed in SI units is:
2× π

6.5. Current units

The internal current units refer to the motor phase currents. The correspondence with the motor
currents in [A] is:

SI units for jerk are [rad/s ] for a rotary movement, [m/s ] for a linear movement

where Ipeak – is the intelligent motor peak current expressed in [A]. You can read this value in
the “Drive Info” dialogue, which can be opened from the “Drive Setup”.
6.6. Voltage command units

The internal voltage command units refer to the voltages applied on the motor. The significance of
the voltage commands as well as the scaling factors, depend on the motor type and control
method used.
In case of brushless motors intelligent motorn in sinusoidal mode, a field oriented vector
control is performed. The voltage command is the amplitude of the sinusoidal phase voltages. In
this case, the correspondence with the motor phase voltages in SI units i.e. [V] is:
1.1 × Vdc
Voltage command[ V ] = × Voltage command[IU]
65534
where Vdc – is the intelligent motor power supply voltage expressed in [V].
In case of brushless motors intelligent motorn in trapezoidal mode, the voltage command is the
voltage to apply between 2 of the motor phases, according with Hall signals values. In this case,
the correspondence with the voltage applied in SI units i.e. [V] is:
Vdc
Voltage command [ V ] = × Voltage command [IU]
32767
This correspondence is akso available for DC brushed motors which have the voltage command
internal units as the brushless motors intelligent motorn in trapezoidal mode.
6.7. Voltage measurement units

The internal voltage measurement units refer to the intelligent motor VMOT supply voltage. The
correspondence with the supply voltage in [V] is:
VdcMaxMeas urable

65520
where VdcMaxMeasurable – is the maximum measurable DC voltage expressed in [V]. You can
read this value in the “Drive Info” dialogue, which can be opened from the “Drive Setup”.
Remark: the voltage measurement units occur in the scaling of the over voltage and under
voltage protections and the supply voltage measurement
6.8. Time units

The internal time units are expressed in slow loop sampling periods. The correspondence with the
time in [s] is:
Time[s] = T × Time[IU]
where T – is the slow loop sampling period expressed in [s]. You can read this value in the
“Advanced” dialogue, which can be opened from the “Drive Setup”. For example, if T = 1ms, one
second = 1000 IU.

6.9. Drive temperature units
The intelligent motor includes a temperature sensor. The correspondence with the temperature in
[°C] is:
3.3[V ] × DriveTemperature[ IU ] Sensor _ output _ 0°C[V ]
Drive temperature [°C] = −
65520 × Sensor _ gain[V / °C ] Sensor _ gain[V / °C ]
where:
Sensor_gain – is the temperature sensor gain
Sensor_output_0°C – is the temperature sensor output at 0°C. You can read these values in the
“Drive Info” dialogue, which can be opened from the “Drive Setup”
6.10. Master position units

When the master position is sent via a communication channel or via pulse & direction signals,
the master position units depend on the type of position sensor present on the master axis.
When the master position is an encoder the correspondence with the international standard (SI)
units is:
2× π
Master _ position[rad] = × Master _ position[IU]
4 × No _ encoder _ lines
where:
No_encoder_lines – is the master number of encoder lines per revolution
6.11. Master speed units

The master speed is computed in internal units (IU) as master position units / slow loop sampling
period i.e. the master position variation over one position/speed loop sampling period.
When the master position is an encoder, the correspondence with the international standard (SI)
units is:
2× π
Master _ speed[rad / s] = × Master _ speed[IU]
4 × No _ encoder _ lines × T
where:
No_encoder_lines – is the master number of encoder lines per revolution
T – is the slave slow loop sampling period, expressed in [s]. You can read this value in the
“Advanced” dialogue, which can be opened from the “Drive Setup”.

6.12. Motor position units
The internal motor position units are encoder counts. The correspondence with the motor
position in SI units 21 is:
2× π
Motor _ Position[SI] = × Motor _ Position[IU]
4 × No _ encoder _ lines
where:
6.13. Motor speed units

The internal motor speed units are encoder counts / (slow loop sampling period). The
correspondence with the motor speed in SI units is:
2× π
Motor _ Speed[SI] = × Motor _ Speed[IU]
4 × No _ encoder _ lines × T
where:
21
SI units for motor position are: [rad] for a rotary motor, [m] for a linear motor

7. Memory Map
The intelligent motor has 2 types of memory: a 1.5K×16 SRAM (internal) memory and an 8K×16
serial E2ROM (external) memory.
The SRAM memory is mapped both in the program space (from 8270h to 87FFh) and in the data
space (from 0A70h to 0FFFh). The data memory can be used for real-time data acquisition and to
temporarily save variables during a TML program execution. The program space can be used to
download and execute TML programs. It is the user’s choice to decide how to split the 1.5-K
SRAM into data and program memory.
The E2ROM is seen as 8K×16 program memory mapped in the address range 4000h to 5FBEh. It
offers the possibility to keep TML programs in a Non-volatile memory. Read and write accesses
to the E2ROM locations, as well as TML programs downloading and execution, are done from the
user’s point of view similarly to those in the SRAM program memory. The E2ROM SPI serial
access is completely transparent to the user.
