3.6. Powering Up
After the Solo Trombone has been mounted, check that the cables are intact.
The Solo Trombone servo drive is then ready to be powered up.
Caution:
Before applying power, ensure that the DC supply is within the range specified for
your specific type of Solo Trombone and that the proper
plus-minus connections are in order.
3.7. Initializing the System
After the Solo Trombone has been connected and mounted, the system must be set up and
initialized. This is accomplished using the Composer, Elmo’s Windows-based software
application. Install the application and then perform setup and initialization according to the
directions in the Composer Software Manual.
3.8. Heat Dissipation
The best way to dissipate heat from the Solo Trombone is to mount it so that its heatsink faces
up. For best results leave approximately 10 mm of space between the Solo Trombone‘s
heatsink and any other assembly.

Solo Trombone Thermal Data
•
Heat dissipation capability (θ): Approximately 5.5 °C/W
•
Thermal time constant: Approximately 600 seconds (thermal time constant means that the
Solo Trombone will reach 2/3 of its final temperature after 10 minutes)
•
Shut-off temperature: 86 °C to 88 °C (measured on the heatsink)
