Chapter 8 Hardware & Software Protection
Introduction
The DMC-42x0 provides several hardware and software features to check for error conditions and to inhibit the
motor on error. These features help protect the various system components from damage.
WARNING
: Machinery in motion can be dangerous! It is the responsibility of the user to design effective error
handling and safety protection as part of the machine. Since the DMC-42x0 is an integral part of the machine, the
engineer should design his overall system with protection against a possible component failure on the DMC-42x0.
Galil shall not be liable or responsible for any incidental or consequential damages.
Hardware Protection
The DMC-42x0 includes hardware input and output protection lines for various error and mechanical limit
conditions. These include:
Output Protection Lines
Amp Enable
This signal goes low when the motor off command is given, when the position error exceeds the value specified by
the Error Limit (ER) command, or when off-on-error condition is enabled (OE1) and the abort command is given.
Each axis amplifier has separate amplifier enable lines. This signal also goes low when the watch-dog timer is
activated, or upon reset.
Note:
The standard configuration of the AEN signal is high amplifier enable (HAEN). Both the polarity and the
amplitude can be changed. To make these changes, see section entitled
364H
Amplifier Circuit in Chapter 3.
Error Output
The error output is a TTL signal which indicates an error condition in the controller. This signal is available on the
interconnect module as ERR. When the error signal is low, this indicates an error condition and the Error Light on
the controller will be illuminated. For details on the reasons why the error output would be active see Error Light
(Red LED) in Chapter 9.
