5 Functional Description
The PANdrive PD-140-42-SE is a mechatronic solution including a 42 mm flange motor, a controller board
and a sensOstep™ encoder. It offers four motor torque options and can be controlled via CAN, RS232, RS485
or USB interface. Power supply, interface and general purpose I/Os can be connected with high density JST
connectors. The chopSync™ feature allows high speed movement avoiding resonances. The PD-140-42-SE
comes with the PC based software development environment TMCL-IDE for the Trinamic Motion Control
Language (TMCL™). Using predefined TMCL™ high level commands like „move to position“ or „constant
rotation“ a rapid and fast development of motion control applications is guaranteed. Communication traffic
is kept very low since all time critical operations, e.g. ramp calculation are performed on board. The TMCL™
program can be stored in the onboard EEPROM for stand-alone operation. In addition to TMCL™ CANopen is
available as firmware option, also.
