ODE SUMMARY
Connect a digital variable frequency waveform from your PLC or other
device, and ClearPath will run at a velocity proportional to the frequency
of the waveform.

Assert the Enable Input to energize the motor. Then, control velocity by
applying a variable frequency pulse train to Input B. Pulse frequency is
proportional to commanded velocity. Direction of travel (CW/CCW) is
controlled by the state of Input A. See Inputs and Timing table below.

Notes:
•
Input frequency range: 20 Hz to 500 kHz.
•
If the frequency signal is off for 50mS or more the input is
considered off. This is interpreted by ClearPath as a zero-
velocity command.
•
Disable time = 10 mS
