Galil Motion Control DMC-42 0 Series, User Manual

Page: 30 / 218

All motion programs that are currently running are terminated when a transition in the Abort input is detected.
This can be configured with the
CN
command. For information see the Command Reference,
OE
and
CN
.
ELO (Electronic Lock-Out) Input
Used in conjunction with Galil amplifiers, this input allows the user the shutdown the amplifier at a hardware level.
For more detailed information on how specific Galil amplifiers behave when the ELO is triggered, see in the
Appendices. If using a 5-8 axis controller with two integrated amplifiers, the ELO input on the A-D connector should
be used. If an ELO is sensed both amplifiers will act on it, and shut down at a hardware level.
Reset Input/Reset Button
When the Reset line is triggered the controller will be reset. The reset line and reset button will not master reset
the controller unless the MRST jumper is installed during a controller reset.
Uncommitted Digital Inputs
The DMC-42x0 has 8 optoisolated inputs. These inputs can be read individually using the function
@IN[x]
where x
specifies the input number (1 thru 8). These inputs are uncommitted and can allow the user to create conditional
statements related to events external to the controller. For example, the user may wish to have the x-axis motor
move 1000 counts in the positive direction when the logic state of DI1 goes high.
The Digital inputs can be used as high speed position latch inputs, see High Speed Position Capture (The Latch
Function) for more information.
This can be accomplished by connecting a voltage in the range of +5V to +28V into INCOM of the input circuitry
from a separate power supply.
4280
Controllers with more than 4 axes have an additional 8 general optoisolated inputs (inputs 9-16). The
INCOM for these inputs is found on the I/O (E-H) D-Sub connector.
An additional 64 I/O are provided at 5V through the extended I/O. These are not optoisolated.
