Product Features
The position controller of the P40 series is used for simple positioning applications, e. g. with wood or sheet
metal processing machines. The main advantage of this controller is the simple, easy and fast entry of required
positions and quantities. The actual value, target value and quantity are displayed by a well legible LCD display
in the control panel. After entering a target position value and a quantity, the positioning process can be started.
The P40 has an internal program memory for a maximum of 1,000 blocks. For the positioning procedure, three
different versions of output signals are available:
1.
Switch-off positioning with up to 3 speeds via digital outputs.
The assignment and logic (active HIGH/LOW) can be parametrized.
2.
Optionally (
18) via unregulated 12 bit analog output (±10 V).
3.
Optionally (
18) via regulated 12 bit PID analog output (±10 V).
The P40 controller is with 24 VDC (+10 / −20 %).
For an alternative supply with AC-voltage, an external power pack is available (
