10A Series 
DESCRIPTION: 10A Series PWM servo amplifiers are designed to drive brush type DC motors. There are two different models 
to the 10A Series: models 10A8 and model 5A5. Operating efficiency for 5A5 is 90%, and 95% for 10A8. Both models are fully 
protected against over-voltage, over-current, over-heating and short-circuits across motor, ground and power leads. These amplifiers 
interface with digital controllers or can be used as a stand-alone drive. Model 10A8 requires a single unregulated power supply only. 
Model 5A5 also requires an external +12V to +15V supply. A potentiometer is located on the side of both modules for loop gain 
adjustment.

OPERATING MODE SELECTION 
10A Series amplifiers operate in the following modes: 
* Voltage Mode (10A8 only) 
* Velocity Mode 
* Current (Torque) Mode 
Use of mating mounting card is required for the following modes: 
* Analog Position Loop mode 
* Voltage Mode (5A5 only) 
Voltage mode can be selected for model 10A8 by shorting pins P1-15 and P1-5. Use of mating mounting cards is required for 5A5. Current 
(Torque) mode can be selected for model 10A8 by shorting pin P1-10 to P1-13. This mode can be selected for model 5A5 by shorting pin 
P1-10 to P1-11. 
See section "G" for more information. 
CURRENT LIMIT ADJUSTMENTS 
These amplifiers feature a single current limit adjustment. If due to extremely harsh operating conditions over-heating occurs, the internal 
analog temperature sensor automatically reduces the current limit to a safe level without interrupting operation or damaging the amplifier. 
The current limit can be reduced by connecting an external resistor between pins P1- 8 and 9. See chart on the data sheet (page A-35) for 
values. 
See section "G" for more information.

DESCRIPTION: Advanced Motion Controls MC3X Series mounting card product line is designed to host three Model 10A8 or Model 5A5 servo 
amplifiers. On-card DC-to-DC converter generates the +15V from the high voltage supply. Customer is provided +10V at +5mA for customer use at the 
screw terminals. Part NO's beginning with "MC" can host both 5A5's and 10A8's. Part NO's beginning with "MF" can host either 5A5's or 10A8's and 
feature an on board filter in the motor lines. The schematic on the reverse side of this data sheet describes all combinations of 5A5 and/or 10A8 for 1-, 2-, 
and 3-axes cards. The cards measure: 4.98" x 8.00" (3-axes), 4.98" x 6.02" (2-axes), 3.80" x 4.98" (1-axis). The highest point on the cards is 1.10"

Servo Amplifier/Card Configurations: The operating modes are selected by DIP switches according to the table on the block diagram. When SW 1, 
5, 9 are in "test mode", the sensitivity of the offset pots is increased so they can be used as an "on-board reference signal". 
Current Mode Reference-Gain Adjustments: Connect "+C" to "+10V" on screw terminal and adjust Pot 2, 7, 12 (for channels #1, 2, 3) to obtain -5V at 
the test point located between Pot 2, 7, 12 and edge of card (wiper of Pot 2, 7, 12). Adjust the potentiometer located on the side of the amplifier module to 
obtain 7.5V at left contacts of C 3, 43, 63 (which are connected to pin 10 of module). C 3, 43, 63 are not factory installed. 
Amplifier Loop-Compensation: In Voltage and Tachometer Mode rotate potentiometer located on the side of the amplifier module clockwise until 
oscillation occurs, and then turn counter-clockwise until oscillation stops. 
IR Compensation Configuration: Rotate potentiometer located on the side of the amplifier module clockwise until oscillation occurs, and then turn 
counter-clockwise until oscillation stops. Repeat this procedure for Pot 4.

ANALOG POSITION LOOP MODE 
In this mode the feedback device is an analog potentiometer mechanically tied to the positioned object. This potentiometer can be powered by the card 
(+/-10V). The command is an analog signal which can be supplied by the user, or a potentiometer supplied by the card (+/-10V) (see analog position mode 
block diagram page G-15). Tune amplifier in voltage mode (or in IR compensation mode for best results), then connect the analog position feedback and 
turn Pot 2 clockwise until oscillation occurs. Finally, rotate Pot 2 counter-clockwise to stop oscillation. (Oscillation may not occur).

Also see following pin descriptions: P1-13 for 10A8 and P1-11 for 5A5 11 INTEGRATO R For 5A5, shorting this pin to P1-10 eliminates the velocity/voltage loop integrator. This provides direct access to the internal current loop (current mode). The potentiometer on the side of the case can be used to adjust the input-voltage to output-current ratio in current mode.

  • 7. OPERATING MODE SELECTION 10A Series amplifiers operate in the following modes: * Voltage Mode (10A8 only) * Velocity Mode * Current (Torque) Mode Use of mating mounting card is required for the following modes: * Analog Position Loop mode * Voltage Mode (5A5 only) Voltage mode can be selected for model 10A8 by shorting pins P1-15 and P1-5. Use of mating mounting cards is required for 5A5. Current (Torque) mode can be selected for model 10A8 by shorting pin P1-10 to P1-13. This mode can be selected for model 5A5 by shorting pin P1-10 to P1-11. See section "G" for more information. CURRENT LIMIT ADJUSTMENTS These amplifiers feature a single current limit adjustment. If due to extremely harsh operating conditions over-heating occurs, the internal analog temperature sensor automatically reduces the current limit to a safe level without interrupting operation or damaging the amplifier. The current limit can be reduced by connecting an external resistor between pins P1- 8 and 9. See chart on the data sheet (page A-35) for values. See section "G" for more information.

A-11 MC/MF Series SERIES MC3X MOUNTING CARDS Models: MF3X510, MF2X510, MF1X510A, MC1X510, MC2X510, MC3X510 FEATURES: * Differential or single-ended inputs * Potentiometer adjustments for offset/test, input gain, tach, IR compensation, current limit * Current, voltage, tachometer, and IR compensation modes DESCRIPTION: Advanced Motion Controls MC3X Series mounting card product line is designed to host three Model 10A8 or Model 5A5 servo amplifiers. On-card DC-to-DC converter generates the +15V from the high voltage supply. Customer is provided +10V at +5mA for customer use at the screw terminals. Part NO's beginning with "MC" can host both 5A5's and 10A8's. Part NO's beginning with "MF" can host either 5A5's or 10A8's and feature an on board filter in the motor lines. The schematic on the reverse side of this data sheet describes all combinations of 5A5 and/or 10A8 for 1-, 2-, and 3-axes cards. The cards measure: 4.98" x 8.00" (3-axes), 4.98" x 6.02" (2-axes), 3.80" x 4.98" (1-axis). The highest point on the cards is 1.10" POTENTIOMETER FUNCTIONS: POTENTIOMETER DESCRIPTION TURNING CW Pot 5, 10, 15 Tachometer gain adjustment (normally not necessary and not factory installed) Increase Pot 4, 9, 14 Adjustment of IR compensation feed back amount Increase Pot 3, 8, 13 Current limit adjustment Increase Pot 2, 7, 12 Input gain adjustment Increase Pot 1, 6, 11 Adjustment of any offset or imbalance in the amplifier/card assembly or in the input signal N/A Sold & Serviced By: ELECTROMATE Toll Free Phone (877) SERVO98 Toll Free Fax (877) SERV099 www.electromate.com sales@electromate.com
  • 11. Servo Amplifier/Card Configurations: The operating modes are selected by DIP switches according to the table on the block diagram. When SW 1, 5, 9 are in "test mode", the sensitivity of the offset pots is increased so they can be used as an "on-board reference signal". Current Mode Reference-Gain Adjustments: Connect "+C" to "+10V" on screw terminal and adjust Pot 2, 7, 12 (for channels #1, 2, 3) to obtain -5V at the test point located between Pot 2, 7, 12 and edge of card (wiper of Pot 2, 7, 12). Adjust the potentiometer located on the side of the amplifier module to obtain 7.5V at left contacts of C 3, 43, 63 (which are connected to pin 10 of module). C 3, 43, 63 are not factory installed. Amplifier Loop-Compensation: In Voltage and Tachometer Mode rotate potentiometer located on the side of the amplifier module clockwise until oscillation occurs, and then turn counter-clockwise until oscillation stops. IR Compensation Configuration: Rotate potentiometer located on the side of the amplifier module clockwise until oscillation occurs, and then turn counter-clockwise until oscillation stops. Repeat this procedure for Pot 4. See section "G".

This potentiometer can be powered by the card (+/-10V). The command is an analog signal which can be supplied by the user, or a potentiometer supplied by the card (+/-10V) (see analog position mode block diagram page G-15). Tune amplifier in voltage mode (or in IR compensation mode for best results), then connect the analog position feedback and turn Pot 2 clockwise until oscillation occurs. Finally, rotate Pot 2 counter-clockwise to stop oscillation. (Oscillation may not occur).
