1: Introduction
This document describes the objects and operational modes of the Elmo DSP-based
motion controller implementation of the CiA DSP 402 protocol. The Elmo Harmonica
digital servo drive (part of the SimplIQ family of digital servo drives ) is used as the main
example in this document.
Generally, the DSP 402 protocol refers only to the load behavior relating to the operation
of speed, position, limits and emergencies. It does not deal with control parameters such
as PI/P, scheduling and feed forward. The motor can be tuned and the plant parameters
set with the Elmo Composer, which may or may not use this protocol for settings. The
protocol offers methods in which a profiled reference can be given to the final load.
The DSP 402 implementation is applicable to Elmo position unit modes; that is
UM=4 or UM=5. This is assumed by the Elmo drive itself and it gives no other
indication.
The Elmo controller provides a number of different options for setting commands and
parameters, such as via the binary interpreter, OS interpreter, RS-232 interpreter and user
programs. When the user works with DSP 402, all relevant motion commands must be
given through this method only. Other command sources may prevent it from operating
properly according to the protocol.
Subsequently modifying controller states, modes and reference parameters using other
methods may lead to undefined states. For example, in a fault state, a FAULT_RESET
from the controlword must be given before enabling the motor again. But sending MO=1
through the OS interpreter may activate the motor and leave the status word of the
DSP 402 with an undefined status.
Other command sources are still useful for purposes not covered by the DSP 402
protocol. Examples include:
Monitoring the states of and inputs to the SimplIQ digital servo drive.
Using the Composer to monitor SimplIQ digital servo drive behavior through the RS232 port while the digital servo drive is under control of the CAN DSP 402 protocol.
Using the user program (or any of the interpreters) to program issues outside the
range of DSP 402 usage. For example, when the DSP 402 digital output command is
not used, the digital outputs can be operated freely by a user program.

1.1

Operating Principles

The CiA DSP 402 CANopen Device Profile for Drives and Motion Control is used to provide
drives in a CAN network with an understandable and consistent behavior. The profile is
built on top of a CAN communication profile, called CANopen, which describes the basic
communication mechanisms common to all devices in the CAN network.

1

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

The purpose of the drive units is to connect axle controllers or other motion control
products to the CAN bus. They usually receive configuration information via service data
objects for I/O configurations, limit parameters for scaling, or application-specific
parameters. At run time, data ban be obtained from the drive unit via the CAN bus either
by polling or in event-driven mode (with properly-mapped TPDOs).
The motion control products use process-data object mapping for real-time operation,
which may be configured using service data objects (SDOs). This communication channel
is used to interchange real-time data-like set-points or actual values such as position
actual values.
The most important part of a device profile is the object dictionary description. The
object dictionary is essentially a grouping of objects accessible via the network in an
ordered pre-defined fashion. The DSP 402 standard objects of single-axis drives, like the
Harmonica, are all in the index range of 0x6000 to 0x67ff.

1.2

Abbreviations and Terms

The following terms are used in this document:
abs/rel

Absolute and relative, which are indications of how to treat
the position reference command in relation to the actual
location.

Elmo Composer

An Elmo software application used for controller setup,
application downloading and monitoring.

Hexadecimal

Numbers marked with either “h” (such as 1000h) or “0x”
(such as 0x1000) refer to a hexadecimal value. Objects and
numbers may appear in either form in different CAN
documents.

hm

Homing mode

ip

Interpolated position mode

Load position

What the position sensor measures, expressed in position
units (in contrast to position sensor increments).

Non-volatile

The object data may be saved to the flash memory of a
device using the SV command, or by setting object 0x1010
(sub1).

Position sensor increments

Units measured by the load position sensor. The speed is
derived from the position sensor.

pp

Profiled position mode

tq

Profiled torque mode

pv

Profiled velocity mode

Reference

Motion parameters can be specified in terms of
meters/second for speed, or encoder counts for position.

rfg

The reference generator, which generates the trajectory for
velocity mode only.

3: Emergencies
Emergency messages are detailed in the SimplIQ CANopen Implementation Guide.

4: Predefinition
Object 0x1000: Device type
The object at index 1000h describes the device type and functionality.
The SimplIQ returns 0x20192 for servo drive supporting DSP 402.

Object 0x1001: Error register
All bits are defined as in the SimplIQ CANopen Implementation Manual and CiA DS-301.
The device-specific bit in the error register is used by the DSP 402 protocol. The error code
can be read from the predefined error field at object 1003h and is compatible with device
profiles for drives available for other field bus systems from object 0x603F as well.
The error register captures the latest emergency messages. SimplIQ servo drives
allow the user to block the transmission of an emergency according to object
0x2F20. Nevertheless, a blocked emergency message is captured in the relevant
entry of the error register.
PDO Mapping
The Elmo drive supports more than one operating mode of DSP 402. It also allows more
than one method to set and query commands. In addition, the use of more than one
standard PDO is predefined. With the Harmonica, four TPDOs and four RPDOs are free
for any mapping according to the Elmo object dictionary. At reset (power up, NMT
communication reset and NMT node reset), a default mapping is introduced according to
DSP 402. These default mapping can be later changed by the user.

Different SimplIQ drives support a different number of digital inputs. It is
advised to use only the relevant bits according to the specific drive.
This object is evaluated every 3 milliseconds.
When mapped as asynchronous, this object is transmitted at every change within the
calculation resolution period. Inhibit time can be used to prevent busload or to control

6.1

Objects

6040h: controlword
6041h: statusword
The Device Control function block controls all functions of the device, categorized as:
Device control of the state machine
Operation mode functions
The state of the device is controlled by the controlword, while the status of the device is
indicated by the statusword.
The state machine is controlled externally by the controlword and external signals. Write
access to the controlword is always allowed. The SimplIQ is always in external mode,
thus the “Remote” indication in the statusword is always ‘1’. The state machine is also
controlled by internal signals such as faults and modes of operation.
The following diagram illustrates the Device Control function.
The Elmo drive is always in remote mode; that is, it can be controlled only
externally by using the SDO and PDO.

The state machine describes the device status and the possible control sequence of the
drive. A single state represents a special internal or external behavior. The state of the
drive also determines which commands are accepted; for example, a point-to-point
motion can be started only when the drive is in OPERATION ENABLE state.

Drive States
The following states of the device are possible:
* NOT READY TO SWITCH ON:
Low-level power (24V) has been applied to the drive.
The drive is being initialized and is running the self test.
A brake output, if present, is applied in this state.
The drive function is disabled.
This state is an internal state in which communication is enabled only at the
end. The user can neither retrieve nor monitor this state.
* SWITCH ON DISABLED:
Drive initialization is complete.
The drive parameters have been set up.
Drive parameters may be changed.
High voltage may not be applied to the drive, (such as for safety reasons; refer to
following note).
The drive function is disabled.
Notes:
In this state, if high power is applied anyway, no indication of an error is
given. The application must be responsible for handling the state transition.
SWITCH ON DISABLED is the minimum state to which a user may switch.
* READY TO SWITCH ON:
High voltage may be applied to the drive.
The drive parameters may be changed.
The drive function is disabled.
* SWITCHED ON:
High voltage has been applied to the drive.
The power amplifier is ready.
The drive parameters may be changed.
The drive function is disabled.
No indication is given if the drive high voltage has not been applied.
* OPERATION ENABLE:
No faults have been detected.
The drive function is enabled and power is applied to the motor.
The drive parameters may be changed.
(This corresponds to normal operation of the drive.)
In this state, a brake is automatically released according to the brake parameter
(BP[N]) timing.

22

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

* QUICK STOP ACTIVE:
The drive parameters may be changed.
The quick stop function is being executed.
The drive function is enabled and power is applied to the motor.
According to the quick stop option code, the drive stops the motion and either
stays in quick stop or disables the motor. The term “drive stops” means that the
rfg completed the deceleration trajectory and not that the motor is stationary.

If the quick stop option code (object 0x605A) is 0 (disable drive function), the state
of the drive is SWITCH ON DISABLED.
* FAULT REACTION ACTIVE:
The drive parameters may be changed.
A fault has occurred in the drive.
The fault reaction function is being executed.
The drive function is disabled.
This parameter cannot be retrieved by the user. The drive automatically
switches to FAULT state.
* FAULT:
The drive parameters may be changed.
A fault has occurred in the drive.
High voltage switch-on/-off depends on the application.
The drive function is disabled.

State Transitions of the Drive Supervisor
State transitions are caused by internal events in the drive or by commands from the host
via the controlword.
State Transition 0: START => NOT READY TO SWITCH ON
Event: Reset.
Action: The drive self-tests and/or self-initializes.
State Transition 1: NOT READY TO SWITCH ON => SWITCH ON DISABLED
Event: The drive has self-tested and/or initialized successfully.
Action: Activate communication.
State Transition 2: SWITCH ON DISABLED => READY TO SWITCH ON
Event: Shutdown command received from host.
Action: None
State Transition 3: READY TO SWITCH ON => SWITCHED ON
Event: Switch On command received from host.
Action: The power section is switched on if it is not already on.

23

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

State Transition 4: SWITCHED ON => OPERATION ENABLE
Event: Enable Operation command received from host.
Action: The drive function is enabled.
State Transition 5: OPERATION ENABLE => SWITCHED ON
Event: Disable Operation command received from host.
Action: The drive operation is disabled.
State Transition 6: SWITCHED ON => READY TO SWITCH ON
Event: Shutdown command received from host.
Action: The power section is switched off.
State Transition 7: READY TO SWITCH ON => SWITCH ON DISABLED
Event: Quick Stop and Disable Voltage commands received from host.
Action: None.
State Transition 8: OPERATION ENABLE => READY TO SWITCH ON
Event: Shutdown command received from host.
Action: The power section is switched off immediately, and the motor is free to rotate
if not braked.
State Transition 9: OPERATION ENABLE => SWITCH ON DISABLED
Event: Disable Voltage command received from host.
Action: The power section is switched off immediately, and the motor is free to rotate
if not braked.
State Transition 10: SWITCHED ON =>SWITCH ON DISABLED
Event: Disable Voltage or Quick Stop command received from host.
Action: The power section is switched off immediately, and the motor is free to rotate
if not braked.
State Transition 11: OPERATION ENABLE =>QUICK STOP ACTIVE
Event: Quick Stop command received from host.
Action: The quick stop function is executed.
State Transition 12: QUICK STOP ACTIVE=>SWITCH ON DISABLED
Event: Quick Stop completed or Disable Voltage command received from host.
This transition is possible if the quick stop option code is higher than 5 (stay in QUICK
STOP ACTIVE state).
Action: The profile generator finished the deceleration and the motor is disabled.
State Transition 13: All => FAULT REACTION ACTIVE
Event: A fault has occurred in the drive.
Action: Execute appropriate fault reaction.
State Transition 14: FAULT REACTION ACTIVE => FAULT
Event: The fault reaction is completed.
Action: The drive function is disabled. The power section may be switched off.
State Transition 15: FAULT=>SWITCH ON DISABLED
Event: Fault Reset command received from host.
Action: The fault condition is reset if no fault currently exists in the drive.

24

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

After leaving FAULT state, the Fault Reset bit of the controlword must be
cleared by the host. The drive does not monitor this bit in other states. If this
bit is not cleared from a previous fault state, when the next fault occurs, the
drive automatically enters SWITCH ON DISABLED state with no indications
or warning.
State Transition 16: QUICK STOP ACTIVE=>OPERATION ENABLE
Event: Enable Operation command received from host. This transition is possible if
the quick stop option code (object 0x605A) is 5, 6.
Action: The drive function is enabled.
Notes:
This transition forces a “motion begin”; for example, if the controlword
forces transition 11 during a home sequence, the motor will stop according
to the quick stop option code. If a new homing speed and homing acceleration are
set to the drive and the controlword sets transition 16, the home sequence
will continue according to the method and with the new home parameters.
If the motor is turned off by an external source (such as the interpreter)
during OPERATION ENABLE, the minimum state SWITCH ON ENABLE
will merge with no further notification.
Important Notes about State Transition:
If a command that causes a change of state is received, it is processed completely
and the new state is attained before the next command is processed.
The drive performs transitions 0 and 1 after initiation, either at power up or at
NMT node reset. From this state, it is up to the host to change the transitions
according to the application needs.
“Drive function is disabled” implies that no energy is being supplied to the
motor. Reference values are not processed.
“Drive function is enabled” implies that energy can be supplied to the motor.
The reference values (torque, velocity and position) are processed.
“Fault occurred” implies that a fault has occurred in the drive during
“Operation Enable”. In this case, there is a transition to state FAULT
REACTION ACTIVE, during which the device executes a motor disable
function. After executing this fault reaction, the device switches to state FAULT.
It is possible to leave this state only through the Fault Reset command, and only
if the fault is not active anymore.
If a fault occurs in OPERATION ENABLE state, an emergency message – if not
masked – is sent with the fault reason. The last 16 fault messages are latched and
can be retrieved later by uploading object 0x1003, defined in DS-301.
In a fault state, setting MO=1 through methods other than the controlword
activates the motor and leads to an ambiguous state of the DSP 402 protocol.

25

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

Illegal Transition
After initiation of a drive by either power on or NMT node reset, the drive automatically
performs transitions 0 and 1 to the SWITCH ON DISABLED state. The controlword can
then be used to cause any of the transitions defined previously. If a transition is illegal
(such as requesting a QUICK STOP in a FAULT state), the controlword is rejected with
abort code 0609 0030, “Value range of parameter exceeded.” If an RPDO is used to
control the drive, an RPDO style emergency is transmitted with the error code. The
emergency structure and meaning is illustrated in the SimplIQ CANopen Implementation
Manual. This emergency can be masked in accordance with object 2F21h. In case of an
illegal transition, bit 7 in the statusword (warning) is set for at least the next
transmission of this statusword. The bit is after a legal transition of the controlword.
The resolution for statusword transmission is approximately 3 milliseconds. Events
that are modified during this time are sensed and responded to, but no notification
of them is made by the statusword.

Bit 4: Voltage Enabled:
High voltage is applied to the drive when this bit is set to 1.
Bit 5: Quick Stop:
When reset, this bit indicates that the drive is reacting to a Quick Stop request. Bits 0,
1 and 2 of the statusword must be set to 1 to indicate that the drive is capable of
regenerating. The setting of the other bits indicates the status of the drive (for
example, the drive is performing a quick stop in reaction to a non-fatal fault. The
fault bit is set in addition to bits 0, 1 and 2).
Bit 7: Warning:
A drive warning is present if bit 7 is set. While no error has occurred, this state must
still be indicated; for example, job refused. The status of the drive does not change.
The cause of this warning may be found by reading the fault code parameter. This
bit is set when an illegal controlword is received and reset after at least one statusword
of this transition has been transmitted.
Bit 8:
This bit is reserved for the manufacturer. It is not used and is set to 0.
Bit 9: Remote:
If bit 9 is set, parameters may be modified via the CAN network, and the drive
executes the contents of a command message. If the bit remote is reset, the drive is in
local mode and does not execute the command message. The drive may transmit
messages containing actual valid values such as a position actual value, depending on
the actual drive configuration. The drive accepts accesses via SDO in local mode.
The Remote bit is always set by the Elmo servo drive.
Bit 10: Target Reached:
Bit 10 is set by the drive to indicate that a set-point has been reached. The set-point is
dependent on the operating mode. The relevant description is found in the chapter
about the special mode. The change of a target value by software alters this bit.
If the quick stop option code is 5 or 6, this bit is set when the quick stop operation is
finished and the drive is halted.
If a Halt occurs and the drive has halted, this bit is also set.
Bit 11: Internal Limit Active:
The drive can set this bit to indicate that an internal limitation is active (such as
software position limit).
Bits 12 and 13:
These bits are operation-mode specific. Their description is found in the chapter

7.1

Functional Description

The drive behavior depends on the activated modes of operation. Different modes can be
implemented, although not in parallel. Therefore, the user must activate the required
function by selecting a mode of operation. The modes-of-operation variables are
initialized at reset to “no mode” (value -1). Modes can be set in any state, including
OPERATION ENABLE. At OPERATION ENABLE, the motor stands still until an explicit
motion command is received via a control word. Bit 10 in the statusword (Target reached) is
set.
When switching modes in OPERATION ENABLE, the transition proceeds as if bit 8
(Halt) in the controlword has been set. The motion first stops according to object 605Dh.
The mode actually changes only after a complete stop, according to the definition of
target reached. The actual mode is reflected via object 6061h.
The statusword contains bits whose meaning depends on the mode of operation. When
switching modes, the “mode dependent” bits in the controlword and statusword must be
monitored.

Physical dimensions and sizes need to be converted into the device internal units,
requiring a number of different factors. This chapter describes how these factors
influence the system, how they are calculated and which data is needed to build them.

8.1

Relationship between Physical and Internal Units

The factors defined in the factor group determine a relationship between the Elmo drive
internal units and the application physical units. The factors are a result of the calculation
of two parameters – called dimension index and notation index – which are defined
Appendix A and Appendix B. One parameter indicates the physical dimensions, and the
other indicates the decimal exponent for the values. These factors are directly used to
normalize the physical values.
The application-specific parameters are used in the corresponding mode of operation to
build the described factors. Parameters that are commonly used are integrated in the
object dictionary without defining their junctions. This guarantees a common parameter
number for further use without the need for predefinition.

8.2

Functions and Limits

Factors cannot be set while the drive is in OPERATION ENABLE state.
Divisors cannot be set to 0. An abort message with abort code 0609 0030 will be
transmitted.
Values are truncated to the nearest integer.

General Information

This chapter describes the method by which a drive seeks the home position (also called
the datum, reference point or zero point). Homing can be performed using limit switches
at the ends of travel or a home switch (zero point switch) in mid-travel; most of the
methods also use the index (zero) pulse train from an incremental encoder.
Input Data
The user can specify the speeds, acceleration and method of homing. An additional
object, home offset, is used to displace zero in the user’s coordinate system from the home
position. There are two homing speeds: in a typical cycle the faster speed is used to find the
home switch and the slower speed is used to find the index pulse.
Output Data
There is no output data except for those bits in the statusword that return the status or
result of the homing process and the demand to the position control loops.
Internal States
The homing mode is controlled by the bits of the controlword and statusword.

Notes:
If homing is interrupted by setting bit 4 from “1” to “0”, the movement of the
motor is not interrupted; that is, the motor remains in its present state, either
moving or not. The home sequence is interrupted and the home target is not
attained. By setting the bit back to “1”, the homing mode begins again.
If a Halt occurs, the drive stops the homing method and halts the motor
according to object 609Ah. When this bit is set to “0” and bit 4 remains “1”, the
home method begins again.

Objects

Object 0x607C: Home offset
This object is the difference between the zero position for the application and the
machine home position (found during homing), measured in position units. During
homing, the machine home position is found. Once homing is completed, the zero
position is offset from the home position by adding the home offset to the home position.
All subsequent absolute moves are taken relative to this new zero position, as illustrated
in the following diagram.

Functional Description

Choosing a method of homing by writing a value to homing method clearly establishes the:
Homing signal (positive limit switch, negative limit switch, home switch)
Direction of actuation
Position of the index pulse, where appropriate
Homing is performed on either the main position sensor (PX) or the auxiliary position
sensor (PY), depending on the unit mode — for position loop (UM=5) or dual loop
(UM=4) — respectively. The relevant source is selected when homing is activated by the
controlword.
The home position and zero position are offset by the home offset (see the home offset
definition for how this offset is used).

58

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

Various homing positions are illustrated in the diagrams that follow (section 9.4). A
circled number indicates the code for selecting the homing position. The direction of
movement is also indicated.
Additional homing methods are available with other modes of the Elmo drives,
such as the binary interpreter or the user program.
Four sources of homing signal are available: the negative and positive limit switches,
the home switch and, and the index pulse, which are handled by fast inputs. The
captured value is independent of drive sampling time. Limit switches must be
previously defined during the drive setup (using the IL[N] command).
In the homing sequence diagrams, the encoder count increases as the axle position moves
to the right. In other words, the left is the minimum position and the right is the
maximum position. In the SimplIQ drive, the user may select the configuration;
otherwise, it is determined according to the setup process.
Error Cases
Error cases are events in which the drive cannot reach the home method or operate the
home demand parameters, such as high speed. In cases where the limit is known in
advance — such as home speed higher than the speed limit — an abort message is
executed. In cases where a fault is hit during the operation of the home procedure —
such as an abort switch — the drive goes into a fault state. The homing error bit in the
statusword is set and an emergency message for motor fault, if not masked, is transmitted.
The error register can be monitored for the fault indication. In cases where a limit
prevents the home sequence from being finished, such as reaching a mechanical limit, no
special indication is given. It is up to the application to monitor or set a timeout sequence
for the home procedure.

9.4

DSP 402 Homing Methods

The following sub-sections describe the details of how each homing mode functions. The
Elmo drives support each of these methods.

9.4.1

Method 1: Homing on the negative limit switch and
index pulse

Using this method, the initial direction of movement is leftward if the negative limit
switch is inactive (here shown as low). The home position is at the first index pulse to the
right of the position where the negative limit switch becomes inactive.

Figure 9-1: Homing on the negative limit switch and index pulse

9.4.2

Method 2: Homing on the positive limit switch and
index pulse

Using this method, the initial direction of movement is rightward if the positive limit
switch is inactive (here shown as low). The position of home is at the first index pulse to
the left of the position where the positive limit switch becomes inactive.

Figure 9-2: Homing on the positive limit switch and index pulse

60

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

9.4.3

Methods 3 and 4: Homing on the positive home
switch and index pulse

Using methods 3 or 4, the initial direction of movement is dependent on the state of the
home switch. The home position is at the index pulse to either the left or right of the pint
where the home switch changes state. If the initial position is sited so that the direction of
movement must reverse during homing, the point at which the reversal takes place is
anywhere after a change of state of the home switch.

Figure 9-3: Homing on the positive home switch and index pulse

9.4.4

Methods 5 and 6: Homing on the negative home
switch and index pulse

Using methods 5 or 6, the initial direction of movement is dependent on the state of the
home switch. The home position is at the index pulse to either the left or the right of the
point where the home switch changes state. If the initial position is sited so that the
direction of movement must reverse during homing, the point at which the reversal takes
place is anywhere after a change of state of the home switch.

Figure 9-4: Homing on the negative home switch and index pulse

61

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

9.4.5

Methods 7 to 14: Homing on the home switch and
index pulse

These methods use a home switch that is active over only a portion of the travel; in effect,
the switch has a “momentary” action as the axle position sweeps past the switch.
Using methods 7 to 10, the initial direction of movement is to the right, and using
methods 11 to 14, the initial direction of movement is to the left, except if the home
switch is active at the start of motion. In this case, the initial direction of motion is
dependent on the edge being sought. The home position is at the index pulse on either
side of the rising or falling edges of the home switch, as shown in the following two
diagrams. If the initial direction of movement leads away from the home switch, the
drive must reverse on encountering the relevant limit switch.

9.4.6

Methods 15 and 16: Reserved

These methods are reserved for future expansion of the homing mode.

9.4.7

Methods 17 to 30: Homing without an index pulse

These methods are similar to methods 1 to 14, except that the home position is not
dependent on the index pulse; it is dependent only on the relevant home or limit switch
transitions. For example, methods 19 and 20 are similar to methods 3 and 4, as shown in
the following diagram:

Figure 9-7: Homing on the positive home switch

9.4.8

Methods 31 and 32: Reserved

These methods are reserved for future expansion of the homing mode.

9.4.9

Methods 33 and 34: Homing on the index pulse

Using methods 33 or 34, the direction of homing is negative or positive, respectively. The
home position is at the index pulse found in the selected direction.

Figure 9-8: Homing on the positive home switch

9.4.10

Method 35: Homing on the current position

In this method, the current position is taken to be the home position.

General Information

This chapter describes all parameters required for closed-loop position control. The
control loop is fed with the position demand value as one of the outputs of the trajectory
generator and with the output of the position detection unit (position actual value) as input
parameters. The behavior of the control is influenced by the control parameters. Position
control parameters (PI/P) may be set using the Composer Wizard during setup.
To ensure that the physical limits of a drive are not exceeded, an absolute limit function
is implemented for the position control effort. The Elmo drive implements a cascaded
control loop in which the position control effort is a velocity demand value for the velocity
control loop. For further information about tuning the position loop and using the
Composer Wizard, refer to the SimplIQ Composer User Manual and the SimplIQ Software
Manual.
The following terms are used in this chapter:
Following error:
A position actual value outside the allowed range of the following error window around a
position demand value for longer than the following error timeout results in setting bit 13,
following error, in the statusword.
The position following error calculates each cycle of the position control. The
position demand value must be set lower than the setup value of the drive
following error ER[3]. When the position following error exceeds ER[3], the
motion aborts.
Position reached:
This function provides the option of defining a position range around a position
demand value to be regarded as valid. If a drive position is within this area for a
specified time — the position window time — the related control bit 10 target reached
in the statusword is set. Bit 10 is reset to 0 when the motor is off.
The position range in the Elmo servo drive is limited to ±1 * 109 regardless of the
DSP 402 maximum range.

Object 0x6067: Position window
This object defines a symmetrical range of accepted positions relative to the target
position. If the actual value of the position encoder is within the position window, this target
position is regarded as reached. Because the position window is usually specified in userdefined units, the position factor must be used to transform this value into increments.
Before it can be used with this function, the target position must be handled in the same
manner as in the trajectory generator for limiting functions and transformation into
internal machine units.
The Elmo drive always checks the target position window in its own setup
parameters TR[1] and TR[2] at the real-time level. Therefore, the following points
must be taken into account:
The position error mechanism cannot be switched off.
The limits of the position window and the position window time (in internal units)
are 32,000 increments and 100 milliseconds, respectively.

General Information

This chapter describes how to set a point-to-point (PTP) movement under a profiled
position where a target position is applied to the trajectory generator. It generates a
position demand value to the control loop. The trajectory generator input includes profiled
velocity, acceleration, deceleration, and selection of motion type, motion polarity and
stopping option. The inputs to the trajectory are given in user units and are limited
before being normalized to internal increments.
Notes:
Limits supported by the DSP 402 protocol may be submitted to internal limits
that protect the drive or support any previous behavior for compatibility
reasons.
The velocity, acceleration, deceleration is submitted to the limits according to
the relevant limit range.

Object 0x607D: Software position limit
This object contains the sub-parameters min position limit and max position limit, which
define the absolute position limits for the position demand value and the position actual
value. Every new target position must be checked against these limits. The position limits
are specified in position units (same as target position) and are always relative to the
machine home position.
Before being compared with the target position, the position limit must be corrected
internally by the home offset, as follows:
Internal correct minimum position limit = min position limit - home offset
Internal corrected maximum position limit = max position limit - home offset
This calculation is performed when home offset or software position limit is changed.

Functional Description

Two different means of applying target positions to a drive are supported by this device
profile:
Set of set-points:
After reaching the target position, the drive unit immediately processes the next target
position that results in a move in which the velocity of the drive is not normally
reduced to zero after achieving a set-point.
Single set-point:
After reaching the target position, the drive unit signals this status to a host computer
and then receives a new set-point. After reaching a target position, the velocity is
normally reduced to zero before starting a move to the next set-point.
The two modes are controlled by the timing of the bits “new set-point” and “change set
immediately” in the controlword, and “set-point acknowledge” in the statusword. These bits
allow a request-response mechanism to be set up in order to prepare a set of set-points
while another set is still being processed in the drive unit. This minimizes reaction times
within a control program on a host computer.
The Elmo drive introduces a buffered mode (bit 13 in the controlword), in which up to 16
subsequent profiled motions can be programmed. The programmed profiles are executed
when the previous motion is target reached. In buffered motion, set-point acknowledge
behaves in a manner similar to non-buffered mode, whereby the bit is reset when new
data can be buffered. Using change set immediately interrupts the buffered motion. In this
case, the buffer is reset and the last programmed motion is executed immediately.
The sequence of a set new point is:
1.

The host sends the trajectory data and validates it by setting the new set point.

2.

The Elmo drive acknowledges reception and buffering of the new data by setting
set-point acknowledge.

3.

The host sends a command to start the first motion by resetting the new set point.

4.

The motion begins. If the drive can accept more set points, the set-point acknowledge
resets.

79

CANopen DSP 402 Implementation Guide
MAN-CAN402IG (Ver. 1.2)

5.

Unless it was interrupted by a change set immediately, the next trajectory is executed
as soon as a target reached is set.
Notes:
A target position can be programmed at any status but can be executed only in
ENABLE OPERATION state. Otherwise, an emergency message is transmitted.
The amount of buffered data can be received by object 0x2F15.

General Information

Interpolated Position mode is used to control multiple coordinated axles or a single axle
with the need for time-interpolation of set-point data. The mode normally uses time
synchronization mechanisms like the sync object for a time coordination of the related
drive units.
The interpolation data record contains the interpolation data; the data type and the data
size of the sub-indices of this structure are according to the sub-mode, as described in
object 0x60C0. For all cases of motion, the interpolation cycle time is defined by the object
interpolation time period. Time synchronization can be performed by the Sync message
defined in DS301 (refer to the Elmo CANopen Implementation Guide).
Interpolated Position mode allows a host controller to transmit a stream of interpolation
data with an explicit time reference to the drive. The Elmo drive supports an input buffer
that allows the interpolation data to be sent in bursts rather than continuously in real
time. The actually available and the maximum size of the input buffer can be requested
by the host using the interpolation data configuration. The buffer size is the number of
interpolation data records that may be sent to a drive to fill the input buffer; it is not the size
in bytes.
The interpolation algorithm is defined in the interpolation sub mode select. Linear
interpolation is the default interpolation method. For each interpolation cycle, the drive
calculates a position demand value by interpolating interpolation data over a period of
time.
Limit functions of speed acceleration deceleration and position are applied to the
interpolation data.
Internal states
The interpolated position mode is controlled by the bits of the controlword and statusword.

Interpolation inactive
The state entered when the device is in OPERATION ENABLED state and
Interpolated Position mode is selected and displayed (object 0x6061). The drive unit
accepts input data and buffers it for interpolation calculations, but does not move the
axles.
Interpolation active
The state entered when the device is in OPERATION ENABLED state, the
interpolated position mode is selected and it is enabled. The drive unit accepts input
data and moves the axles.
Buffer reset
Buffer points start from the first entry. The interpolation buffer is reset in the
following cases:
Entering Interpolated Position mode
Modifying Interpolation sub-mode.
Entering INTERPOLATION INACTIVE state
Setting buffer clear state in object 0x60C4
Motion is halted

Notes:
If the interpolation is interrupted by setting bit 4 from 1 to 0, the drive stops at
quick stop deceleration (object 0x6085) and is treated similarly to axis halted. In this
case, the buffer is cleared; that is, the actual buffer size is the maximum buffer
size.
Setting bit 4 to 1 always starts the interpolation from the first data record. It is up
to the user to ensure consistency of the trajectory.
In case of a Halt, the drive stops the interpolation and stops the motor according
to object 0x605D. This case is treated similarly to interpolation interrupted
described previously.
In case the motor is stopped due to an internal fault or controlword command, the
interpolation is disabled, even if bit 4 is 1. Interpolation can be enabled again
only after the device enters the OPERATION_ENABLE state and bit 4 is set to 1.

Notes:
The maximum and actual buffer size are the number of interpolated data records
that may be sent to the drive to fill the input buffer. They are not the size in
bytes. The actual buffer size may be between max buffer size to.
The buffer position has an effect when the ring buffer is selected.
The buffer organization may change only when interpolated mode is not active.
Reorganization of the buffer clears the input buffer.
Buffer can be clear by sub-index 6 only if interpolation is not active.
Buffer strategies
The contents of the buffer items can only be accessed via the interpolation data record. The
maximum buffer size is given in object 0x60C4 is used by the host to determine the actual
buffer size.
Commonly, first-in-first-out (FIFO) structures or ring buffers are used as input buffers.
FIFO:
If the buffer is organized as FIFO, every new received interpolation data record is
placed at the end of the queue, and the drive takes the next data record from the top
of the queue. When the last item of a data record is stored, the buffer pointer is
incremented in order to point to the next buffer position. With this buffer principle,
the object buffer position has no affect. The FIFO buffer is organized as a cyclic buffer
so that after the last buffer entry is updated (entry of max buffer size), the first entry
may be available again depending on actual buffer size. When the buffer is full, an
emergency is transmitted and the last message is discarded.
If buffer is empty interpolation is disabled and emergency may be transmitted if
defined so by object 0x2F21 (refer to the Elmo CANopen Implementation Guide).
Ring buffer:
If the buffer is structured as a ring, the host can place an interpolation data record into
any valid position in the ring by changing the pointer defined in buffer position.
Without changing the buffer position, all data records are written at the same location.
The drive reads the next entry out of the buffer by an internal ring pointer. It is set to
the first data record with buffer clear, after the reorganization of the input buffer. The
user cannot exceed the max buffer

intervals from then on (as in the following figure).

Figure 9: Interpolated Motion
In the figure, the time interval ∆T is set by the object 0x60c2, in milliseconds. The data
records P0,P1,P2,… (object 0x60C1) to define the motion path data relating to the times

Tstart , Tstart + ∆, Tstart + 2∆,...

The motion path is synchronized to the CAN microsecond timer, as set and corrected by
the SYNC-Time stamp mechanism.
The user must specify the data records P0,P1,P2,…fast enough – at an average rate of at
least one record per ∆T . The drive can store up to 64 records, so that the path may be
programmed in bursts in order to relax the feeding real-time requirements.
In order to enter IP mode, use the controlword (0x6040) to start the motor, and then use
the modes of operation(0x6060) object to select IP mode.
You can monitor the mode using the statusword (0x6041) and modes of operation display
(0x6061).
The interpolation sub-mode in object 0x60C0 determines the type of interpolation
performed.
The Elmo drive supports two types of interpolation:
Linear interpolation (default)
Cubic spline interpolation
The structure of the 0x60C1 object depends on the interpolation sub-modes. Refer to the
definition of 0x60C1 to learn more about sub-mode switching.

Linear Interpolation

Linear interpolation requires only the position specified in data record object 0x60C1. The
structure of the position data is according to data type 0x41 (refer to the Elmo CANopen
Implementation Guide). The velocity at each time point is calculated by finding the
difference between the corresponding position and the position of the previous point, as
in the following figure.

Spline Interpolation

In cubic spline interpolation, the user specifies both the position and the speed at each
time point. The record data type is 0x44 (refer to the Elmo CANopen Implementation
Guide). The drive constructs the motion path to be at the given time, at the given position,
with the given speed, as in the following figure. Spline interpolation can yield a more
accurate path specification with fewer time points, but it requires the care in constructing
the speed data.

Motion Synchronization

The IP mode enables the synchronized motion of multiple axes. The motions of several
slave axes are synchronized if they all run IP, and they all being the IP at the same time.
Synchronization can proceed continuously using the SYNC-Time stamp mechanism.
In order to start several axes synchronously, map the controlword to a synchronous RPDO,
and then use the mapped controlword to enable interpolation for all axes. Nothing will
happen until the next SYNC. Then, all drives will enable interpolated motion at once,
setting the SYNC arrival time as the “zero” time of the path specification.
If the axes have been previously synchronized by SYNCs and Time stamps, the moving
axes will be relatively synchronized to the precision of microseconds.

Profile Velocity mode includes the following sub-functions:
Demand value input via trajectory generator
Velocity capture using the position sensor or velocity sensor
Velocity control function with the appropriate input and output signals
Monitoring of the profile velocity using a window function
Monitoring of the velocity actual value using a threshold
The input parameters of the reference value generator are:
Profile velocity
Profile acceleration
Profile deceleration
Emergency stop
Motion profile type
These parameters and the operation of the reference value generator are described in
section 11:.
The velocity controller calculates a torque variable. When a different target position
arrives, it is executed immediately.
Notes:
A target velocity can be executed only in OPERATION ENABLED state.
Otherwise, the process aborts with an emergency message.
The velocity, acceleration and deceleration are submitted to the limits according
to the relevant limit range.

General Information

This chapter describes the profile torque mode. The profile torque mode allows a host
(external) control system (i.e. closed-loop speed controller, open-loop transmission force
controller) to transmit the target torque value, which is processed via the trajectory
generator. In profile torque mode, torque slope and torque profile type parameters are
required.
Should the host control system switch the controlword bit 8 (halt) from 0 to 1, then the
trajectory generator ramps its control output down to zero. Should the host control
system switch the controlword bit 8 (halt) from 1 to 0, then the trajectory generator ramps
its control output up to the target torque. In both cases the trajectory generator takes the
torque slope and torque profile type into consideration.
All definitions within this document refer to rotating motors. Linear motors require that
all "torque" objects refer to a "force" instead. For the sake of simplicity, the objects are not
duplicated and their names should not be modified. As an example, the linear motor
target force must be transmitted using the target torque object. Refer to the object
descriptions for additional information.

The SimplIQ drive deals only with the profile structure and not the control structure. For
more information about the Torque\Current control loop please refer to the SimplIQ
Software Manual.
The torque control parameters, power stage parameters and motor parameters are
defined as objects so that they can be handled (i.e. downloaded) in a standard way. Their
detailed data content is manufacturer-specific.

The torque demand, torque actual value, current actual value may be available to the
user as parameters, if they are monitored.
Elmo’s SimplIQ drives support Profile Torque mode when selected. When Profile Torque
objects are set, some internal commands are affected. These internal commands remain
even after another operating mode is chosen. The following list shows the objects that are
affected, more information about these commands is available in the SimplIQ Command
Reference manual:
Max Torque [0x6072] : Set PL[1]
Max Current [0x6073] : Set PL[1]
Torque Demand Value [0x6074] : Reflect DV[1]
Motor Rated Current [0x6075] : Set CL[1]
Torque Actual Value [0x6077] : Reflect IQ
Current Actual Value [0x6078] : Reflect IQ
Notes:
Because DSP402 defines all relevant torque and current as relative to rate values,
motor current and motor torque are, herein, considered to be the same.
The following objects imitate each other and the last value entered is valid:
0x6072, 0x6073 for reference.
0x6077, 0x6078 for feedback.

Example:
If a torque that is relative to current of 2 amps is needed,
and object 0x6075 (Motor Rate Current) is 3200 mA,
then
[0x6071] = 2000 mA x 1000 / 3200 mA = 625
This number means 62.5 % of Motor Rate Current.
