The PMC-S4 Series Motion
Controller performs coordinates control for up to 4 servo motor axes using
quadrature encoder signals for position feedback. The PMC-S4
interfaces directly to an IBM compatible PC using a single ISA (industry
Standard Architecture) slot. All motor related signals (Command, Encoder
Power, and Amp Enable Out, Limits, Home and Amp Fault In) are accessed on
the back of the PC through a 60 pin connector. 24 Lines of optically
isolated digital I/O are also included, accessed through a 50 pin connector
on the board. Optical isolation is also provided between the
PMC-S4 and externally connected amplifiers. An optional software
package includes a tuning program with capture and graphing capabilities, a
user configurable runtime display program, and a library of C language
functions. Also available is a software package that turns the PMC-S4 into
a 4 axis CNC controller. Look to the PMC-S1
for a non-enclosed single-axis motion controller, or the
XMC-S1 for an enclosed single-axis motion
controller.
