4.7 Creating and programming TM41
4.7Creating and programming TM41
4.7.1Overview
The TM41 terminal module can be used to expand the number of digital I/O and of analog inputs within a drive system. TM41 also returns TTL signals which emulate an incremental encoder, for example, for a master control system.
The emulated encoder signal has the signal characteristic of an incremental TTL encoder (A track, B track, R track). The resolution of the encoder signal can be specified in the configuration.
Configuring the TM41 involves the following steps:
●Configuring TM41 at SINAMICS Integrated
●Configuring TM41 using the Axis Wizard.
Note
The digital I/Os can be interconnected similar to those of TM31.
The TM41 encoder interface (incremental encoder representation) can
●Be interconnected with an encoder signal of the control unit using parameterization, e.g. sin/cos incremental encoder. For detailed information, consult the SINAMICS manuals.
●From the SIMOTION viewpoint, can be accessed as axis. This allows you to return the axis position (a master value) as encoder signal to a second controller, for example. Detailed information is contained in the SIMOTION D4x5 Commissioning and Hardware Installation Manual.
The second application case can only be used with SIMOTION D410 with restrictions, because the TM41 is configured as a real axis. Because SIMOTION D410 supports just one real axis, no additional real axis can be configured.
4.7.2Configuring TM41 at SINAMICS Integrated
TM41 can be configured after you completed the configuration of SINAMICS Integrated. Proceed as follows:
1.
2.Select TM41 from the "Control type" field of the "Insert input/output component" dialog box and assign a unique name to the module.
3.Confirm your entry with "OK".
The TM41 is inserted in the Project Navigator by the name you entered.
