Structural Characteristics: Compact form factor with dimensions of approximately 54.8mm wide × 175mm tall × 131.6mm deep. Front-panel accessible connectors and LED status indicators. The SynqNet option card is factory-installed.

Working Principle: The drive uses space vector modulation to generate sinusoidal three-phase currents. The SynqNet protocol provides deterministic real-time communication between the host controller and multiple drives, enabling synchronized multi-axis motion with sub-microsecond jitter. The nested control loop architecture (current → velocity → position) ensures precise torque, speed, and position regulation.

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount in a ventilated enclosure with ambient temperature not exceeding 40°C
  • Connect SynqNet cables using shielded Cat5e or better Ethernet cabling
  • Maintain minimum clearance for convection cooling
  • Use shielded motor and feedback cables with proper grounding
  • Ensure proper DC bus voltage within the 85–265 VAC range

Usage Notes:

  • The “V” suffix indicates AC input; verify correct AC voltage range before powering
  • The “T” suffix indicates SynqNet option; ensure the host controller supports SynqNet protocol
  • SynqNet ring topology provides redundancy; a single cable break will not interrupt communication
  • Use the Windows GUI for initial configuration and SynqNet network setup
  • Verify motor-drive compatibility using the Kollmorgen sizing tables
