NextMove PCI

NextMove PCI is a compact (7") PCI based controller for the control of up to 12 axes of motion. A single card can control up to 4 axes of servo and 4 axes of stepper. Expansion cards are available to take this to 12 axes of servo and 12 axes of stepper. 

On board I/O can be used to control many parts of the machine. This can be further expanded with either Baldor's range of CAN I/O modules operating over the NextMove PCI CAN bus, or alternatively, CANopen devices conforming to the standard DS401 I/O profile.

Versatile programming is provided by means of MintMT - multitasking Basic, embedded 'C' or the supplied ActiveX components.

NextMove PCI's large Dual Ported RAM (DPR) allows for fast data transfer between the PC application and NextMove PCI. NextMove PCI is ideally suited in applications where fast data transfer is required, for example high speed contouring applications.

Features:

• PCI short card (7 inches)
• 100-pin high density EMC compliant connector interfacing to optional breakout board
• 32-bit 50MHz Digital Signal Processor (DSP)
• 2MByte SRAM for storage of firmware, user programs and data
• 12kByte NVRAM for non-volatile parameter storage
• Up to 8 axes of control on one card - 4 servo and 4 stepper
  Expandable to 12 axes with PCI002-501 or PCI002-502 expansion cards
• 20 uncommitted PNP/NPN isolated digital inputs
  Programmable for hardware limits, home input, stop input and error input. 4 of the inputs can be programmed for high speed capture of position with 1 microsecond
• 12 uncommitted opto-isolated digital outputs. PNP or NPN options available
  Programmable for drive enable and high speed position compare output
• 24V/150mA relay output to signal system error conditions
• 4 x 12-bit uncommitted analog inputs
• Master encoder input for synchronization
• 32kByte Dual Port RAM (DPR) interface with host interrupt capability
• Two CAN interfaces for I/O expansion and HMI interfaces. Can be used to provide full peer-to-peer networking capabilities with other Mint based controllers
• Multi-tasking programming capability with MintMT. Number of tasks limited only by available memory
• Comprehensive move types including: linear, circular and helical interpolation; software cams; flying shears; splines; synchronization with positional offsets and virtual axes
• Embedded 'C' programming capability (Note: requires purchase of appropriate Texas Instruments compiler)
• ActiveX libraries supplied free of charge
• Compatible with Windows 9x/ME/NT4.0/2000/XP
