IT 116 Mini / IT 116 Flash
Step Controller
General
The IT 116 Flash step controller is a freely programmable compact controller for a linear or circular axis with 2-phase stepper motor. The step controller comprises an intelligent step motor stage, a processor core with Flash memory for downloading/ storing the PAL-PC user program and the clocking/direction signal generation for the final stage of the motor, the necessary power supply units, a safety circuit (Stop category 0 to EN 60204) and a casing with mains input filter and control elements.
The integrated operating system in the Flash memory of the processor core supports both
- DNC controller mode: PC/laptop connected permanently with the step controller via the serial interface
and the - CNC controller mode: the step controller works independently, withoutPC coupling of the stored user program (standalone).
- Final output stage 48 V DC / 4.2 A peak for 2-phase stepper motors
- max. 25,600 microsteps/turn
- Mains voltage:
115V AC/230V AC, 50…60 Hz - Automatic current sink at 50% phase current at motor speed < 1 rpm
- Motor current/microstep resolution variable with DIP switch
- Integrated 32-bit RISC processor (Embedded controller) with Flash memory for firmware and PAL PC user program
- RS-232 interface (front) for coupling with PC/notebook (program download)
- Control signals:
Program start/stop, reset on controller back side - 4 optically isolated signal inputs (Signal voltage: 24 V DC)
- 4 relay outputs (24 V DC, 300 mA)
- Motor brake controller (24 V DC)
- Remote plug on rear of controller for external EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN (2-channel), ext. power on
- Euro cooling rib casing
- Programming with PAL-PC 2.1 for Win2000, XP, Vista, 7
- Dimensions
W 105 × H 111 × D 320 mm
