The PCL601USB step motor controller provides independent programming of acceleration/deceleration,
base speed (start up speed), max speed (running speed), jog speed, and the number of steps to be taken
in both relative and absolute positioning modes. On absolute positioning moves, the PCL601USB
automatically determines the proper direction to go and the number of steps to take. The relative positioning
will move a number of steps in the direction that the user defines.
The PCL601USB also has specific functions such as index-on-the-fly, which during a slew move will
move a predefined number of steps after an input has been triggered. Output-on-the-fly, which will trigger
an output on for 50uS during an indexing move at an absolute position and repeat triggering the output on
after a given number of steps. An analog input can be used to set either the maximum speed or goto an
absolute position based between the upper and lower programmable limits. A seven decade thumbwheel
switch can be read for relative indexing.
The controller also has a high level programming command set that includes: branching, looping, conditional
statements, time delays, text strings, and I/O which the user can use in the programming mode to fully
control all machine functionality. A home input, a set of bidirectional hard and soft limit switch inputs and
bidirectional jog inputs are provided for each axis. These features are generally required in most machine
control designs. Six testable TTL, CMOS and 24V compatible inputs and 8 programmable open-collector
outputs are provided per axis. The I/O may be used for monitoring and controlling machine operation and/
or interaxis coordination. The I/O are accessible independent of the busy state of the axis controls. The
PCL601USB has a built-in programmable reset circuit. Reset is automatic on power-up, or by pressing
the external reset button.
A CD, provided when you purchase the unit, contains this user’s manual, along with the SMC60WIN
software, windows virtual comport driver and PCL601USB program examples. The software allows you
to write and change programs that are to be stored in the PCL601USB for autostart use, and also upload
the program that is stored in the PCL601USB itself for editing and viewing. The software also allows you
to save the programs onto your computer hard drive, and easily retrieve them when needed.
