This card is an
easy-to-use, plug-and-play
and
cost
effective
solution for single and multi-axis
motion control applications.
It may be used as a stand-alone unit or may be commanded by an external
device.
This
series supports up to 4 axes of motion, 16 TTL / CMOS compatible inputs,
16 TTL / CMOS compatible outputs, 3 analog inputs, and up to five
optical encoder inputs. The command port is provided for stand-alone
operation.
The powerful programming instructions
with more than 120 commands include motion control, system
configuration, data flow, program flow commands, 32-bit logical and
mathematical operations, and other miscellaneous instructions.
These cards can also be operated using an analog joystick or a trackball
with quadrature outputs.
The speed of the motor is
proportional to the tilt angle of the joystick or the rotational
speed of the trackball.The
joystick has three
speed selection keys; fast, medium and slow speed.
The
module may be controlled in different ways;
1)
Stand-alone
In this mode, the controller does not need
an external device such as a PC to operate.
The controller is programmed in a simple
programming language. The code is developed,
downloaded to the controller, run and saved
in the controller's non-volatile memory
using the supplied Integrated Development
Environment (IDE) software.
2) Externally Controlled
In this mode, the external host such as a
PC, micro-controller or PLC sends a series
of commands to the controller via the RS-232
serial port. The controller processes and
performs the incoming commands and responds
with proper messages.
3)
Control Panel
The supplied user friendly Control
Panel software allows the user to set-up the
module quickly. The operator is able
to move the mechanism to different positions
by pressing the corresponding buttons of the
Control Panel or by using the joystick
and/or trackball.
