PMAC-Pack
PMACPack Options and Accessories 101
Option 8
Provides interpolation for an analog quadrature encoder, yielding 128 or 256 states per cycle. With sub-
option a, interpolation for a second encoder is provided.
Option 9
Interfaces up to four Yaskawa absolute encoders, providing absolute power-on position serially through
the thumb wheel Multiplexer port, and ongoing quadrature position information through the normal
encoder ports.
PMAC-Pack Compatible ACC8D
Options are specified as follows:
•
ACC8D-OPT-6: Encoder Optical isolation (4)
•
ACC8D-OPT-7: Resolver-to-digital converter (2)
•
OPT A: Two additional R/D converter channels
•
ACC8D-OPT-8: Analog encoder interpolator (1)
• OPT A: One additional analog encoder interpolator
•
ACC8D-OPT-9: Yaskawa absolute encoder interface (4)
Accessory 9: IBM PC Executive Software Disks
The Accessory 9 family of software products for IBM-PC and compatible computers provide
development and diagnostic tools for building a PMAC application.
The ACC-9D PMAC Executive Program is a host program for the PMAC controller that is intended as a
development tool in starting a PMAC application. It provides a terminal emulator, PMAC program editor
with disk file functions, and special screens for viewing PMAC variables and status. The program was
written in the "C" programming language.
All ACC-9 programs are sold on a site license basis. The library and function block products may be
included in re-sold application software without royalties. If the Executive program is to be re-sold as part
of a PMAC system, one copy must be purchased for each customer to whom it is resold.
Accessory 12: Liquid Crystal/Vacuum Fluorescent Display
Accessory 12 provides display capability for the PMAC independent of the host interface. It connects to
the JDISP connector on PMAC-Pack. The user can program (through the DISPLAY command) what he
wishes to show on the display. The vacuum fluorescent (VF) display is larger and brighter than the liquid
crystal (LCD) display.
Note:
A custom interface cable (no charge) is required for PMAC-Pack. Consult Delta
Tau before ordering.
