The device electronics are fully compatible with those of the APCI-8001 / APCI-8008 motherboard. In addition, the OPMF can also process up to 8 analog input signals with a 12-bit (APCI-8001) or 16-bit (APCI-8008) resolution. This section describes the technical software and hardware characteristics of the OPMF.
APCI-8001: One value (one channel) is refreshed per scan cycle, i.e. with eight channels, each channel is refreshed every 8 ms, with a pre-defined cycle of 1 ms.
Digi axis qualifier for axis channels 4, 5 and 6 The digi register is used to check the status of the digital inputs in the APCI-8001. If the respective inputs are active, this is displayed with the value 1 at the respective bit position.
Digi axis qualifier for axis channels 7 and 8 The digi register is used to check the status of the digital inputs in the APCI-8001. If the respective inputs are active, this is displayed with the value 1 at the respective bit position.
PTIONS MANUAL 1.2.2.5 rddigob, read digital output bit See wrdigob in section [1.2.2.7] 1.2.2.6 wrdigo, write digital outputs This register can be used to set the digital outputs of the OPMF. You must ensure ESCRIPTION that the digital outputs are grouped axis-specifically on the OPMF. If you wish to set an output, set the respective bit.
1 and 2. This means that up to 8 analog inputs can be processed. The input information is returned as integer type. OPMF of the APCI-8001: The value range is specified as values from -2048 to +2047, based on the AD converter 12-bit word width, including signs. The voltage level for this measurement value depends on the input voltage range of the respective A/D channel.

The colour fields highlighted in green indicate the pin assignment on the 9-pin SUB-D connector (see also section [1.3.1.8]). An FB-8001 connection cable is required for this. The assignment of the OPMF of the APCI-8001 and the OPMF of the APCI-8008 is identical. With the analog inputs, the different resolutions should be noted.

PTIONS MANUAL 1.3.1.3.2 Setpoint value channel for stepper motor axes There are four output signals to control a stepper motor power module. These comprise a pulse signal, a directional signal, and their inverted signals according to EIA standard RS422. All outputs deliver a typical output current of –60 mA (max.

Note: Depending on the configuration level of the OPMF, 1 to 5 relay outputs are available. In order to be able to use all relay outputs, these connections are made with the relay outputs of the APCI-8001 motherboard on a 25-pin SUB-D connector (see chapter 3.2).
PTIONS MANUAL 1.3.1.9 Pulse acquisition channels The OPMF is fitted with up to five pulse acquisition channels, to which various encoder types, such as linear scales or incremental or absolute encoders can be connected. Two 90° phase-shifted quadrature signals are processed as input signals, with a maximum pulse frequency of 2.0 MHz (optionally 5 MHz) and TTL sensors.
OPMF board. The jumper identifiers in the table column „Solder jumper” are as follows: (8001) for the OPMF of the APCI-8001 and (8008) for the OPMF of the APCI-8008. 1.3.1.9.3 Optical decoupling of the pulse acquisition channels All pulse acquisition channels of the OPMF are optically decoupled. This is advantageous particularly in an environment that is subject to severe electromagnetic interference.
1.3.1.10 Pin assignment X2 for the analog input channels The OPMF of the APCI-8001 is available with up to 8 analog inputs. The resolution of the measurement value channels is 12-bit including sign, and the measurement value range of 0…5 V, 0…10 V, -5 .. +5 V or -10 ..

At present, the rwmos.elf operating system software supports up to 512 Interbus subscribers and a maximum of 4096 I/O points. This means that the APCI-8001 can easily be fitted with new E/A functions. A large number of different field bus devices are available on the market, sometimes even with intelligent pre- processing functions.
2.2.3 fwsetup.exe help programme Using the fwsetup.exe TOOLSET programme, the bus structure that is connected to the APCI-8001 can be determined automatically, provided the connected bus is in a proper state. The additional planning options for the OPIBS can be set in the [Interbus] menu. At present, there are three different pages providing important information on the current bus structure and state.
