    Do you mean that you require in total two 24 V DC supplies, one of which is permanent and the other temporal?
    Often with "negative" in DC equipment is meant the common 0 V line.
    I suggest you investigate the possibility that the + 24 V DC is connected to the motor by an On-Off switch, with a press-button switch from the On-Off switch to the energiser.
    In that case the - 24V DC supply is considered the common 0 V line.
