Hello guys,
I am having some trouble understanding this and getting it to work.
I have this servo motor:
Which comes with this drive (The drive we have is for the AASD-50A and the manual lunked below is for the AASD-30A, but they are basically the same):
I am a just graduated mechanical engineer, so my understanding of these kind of diagrams and communications is basically zero, I wanted to know if you guys could help, me figure out how should I connect the drive to my arduino, or if I'll need to use higher voltages to see how can i set some arduino-drived relays to control it. I dont need to control the position of my servomotor, I just need it to run in one direction for a certain amount of time and then invert the direction (Which I planned on doing with code and using two buttons).
Until now, after reading a bit of the techical manual, I can see the following and assume this:
On page 25 of the techical manual I see it says speed-torque control wiring diagram, which I guess is what I want to use just to control speed and torque as Im not interested in position. It says analog value goes into pin 25 (Do I send an analog value out from my arduino to set speed and torque? How should the signal be sent?) and +-10V to pin 13 (What does this voltage control? Can I send it directly through a relay and command my arduino to control the relay?)
I would really really appreciate some help understanding this,
Regards,
Adriano
p.s. English is not my first language so exuse me if I have something badly written
edit: All the powering done in CN1 and connections on CN3 are done, Im having trouble with the communication between the arduino and CN2 which is the I/O (I think thats what its called)
