1.0 Features
Features
- 2 axes of pulse/direction/enable output for external drives, 5 MHz maximum†
- Commander motion controller (PCL6046 pulse-control LSI) on board
- Linear and circular interpolation, trapezoidal and S-curve profiles, 13 homing modes
- Standalone A-SCRIPT programs from on-board serial flash
- Differential A/B/Z encoder input per axis, with three individually fused 5 V supplies on J5
- 16 optically isolated field inputs: 8 general-purpose (DI1–DI8) and 8 limit/home, on independently fused field supplies
- 8 optically isolated open-collector outputs (DO1–DO8)
- 2 analog inputs, 0–5 V, 12-bit
- USB 2.0 full speed (HID) and half-duplex RS-485, 9600–115200 baud
- 12–24 Vdc supply, reverse-polarity protected, PTC fused and transient clamped
- Direct replacement or upgrade path for the PMX-2EX-SA
Typical Applications
XY stages, gantries and positioning systems; pick-and-place and dispensing machines; inspection and test systems; laboratory and bench automation; and as a PMX-2EX-SA replacement or upgrade.
Block Diagram
System block diagram. The field I/O is galvanically isolated from the logic domain; the pulse, direction, enable and sync outputs are referenced to logic ground and are not isolated.
