GPD515/G5 Software Option (VSG114724)
Part Number: CIMR-G5MXXXXXF-020
1.0 Overview:
The purpose of this software is to give the GPD515/G5 inverter motion control capabilities. This software is
designed to cover basic linear motion, rotary motion, and cut to length indexing applications. This software has the
following features:
Three choices of move lengths:
Binary selected 31 distances.
32 bit serial command.
Analog distance command
Multiple position feedback options:
Motor mounted incremental encoder.
Motor mounted incremental encoder and machine mounted incremental encoder.
Motor mounted incremental encoder and machine mounted absolute encoder.
Note: use of an absolute encoder eliminates the need for homing after a power loss.
Multiple homing options:
Home to limit switch.
Home to limit switch and marker pulse.
Home to value of absolute encoder.
Other features:
Jogging commands for machine set up and manual control.
Over-travel limit inputs for machine protection.
1.1 Typical applications:
Linear Absolute Applications with incremental or absolute encoder feedback
Pick and place robots.
Linear slides.
Ball screws.
Linear Relative Applications with incremental encoder feedback
Cut to length
Extruders pump feed.
Rotary Applications with incremental or absolute encoder feedback
Index Turntables.
Turret winders
Dial tables
