3.1 Analog Control Command Signal
3.1.1 Single-ended Type Signal: AOUT+
PCI-8254/PCI-8258 provides 4/8 analog control command
channels respectively. Each analog command supports 16-bit
resolution and provides ±10V output range at accuracy smaller
than ± 1mV. Each analog control command can be set to single
ended or differential output mode by adjusting switch S1 to be
used by market available Japanese/Taiwanese and American/EU
servo motor drives. In general, a servo drive can be set to P/S/T
(position/speed/torque) mode. When control mode is set to S/T the
positioning function can be exercised by controlling motor speed
or torque with analog commands. When servo drive is set to P
mode, then pulse command of PCI-8254/PCI-8258 will be used for
open-loop control (see Section 3.2). This analog channel is then
defined as general purpose output one.
See below for corresponding pins of analog command output to
DIN-825-GP4:
3.1.2 Single-ended Type Signal: AOUT+, AOUT-
4/8 analog control commands of PCI-8254/PCI-8258 can be set to
single ended or differential output mode by adjusting switch S1 to
be used by market available Japanese/Taiwanese and
American/EU servo motor drives. See below for corresponding
pins of analog command output pins against differential analog
signals to DIN-825-GP4:
