General product description
The FAULHABER Motion Controllers are based on a high-performance digital signal proces-
sor (DSP) that enables high control accuracy, exact positioning and very low speeds.
The Motion Controllers are designed for various drive applications, which can be config-
ured using the respective communication interface.
Depending on the version, the following tasks can be performed:
Position control with analogue or digital setpoint specification
Speed control with analogue or digital setpoint specification
Detection of reference marks and limit switches
Advanced operating modes such as stepper motor operation, electronic gearheads,
voltage controller mode or current control with analogue current setting
Execution of sequence programs stored in the controller (only with version RS)
Various inputs and outputs are available for implementing these tasks:
The set configuration can be stored permanently.
Input/output
Possible applications
Analogue input
Setpoint specification via analogue or PWM signal
Digital input for reference marks and limit switches
Pulse input
Incremental encoder connection
Fault output
Digital output
Pulse output
Digital input for reference marks and limit switches
Rotation direction input
1 additional digital input
Digital input for reference marks and limit switches
Communications interface
Depending on the version, as serial RS232 or CAN interface for coupling to PC
or control
Motion Controllers with RS232 interface can also be operated independently of the
communication interface if a pre-programmed function or sequence program has been
programmed without digital command control.
As an option, the motor and control electronics can be supplied with power separately
(important for safety-relevant applications). In this case, the 3rd input is no longer
available.
Special preconfiguration of the modes and parameters is possible on request.
