Hardware Reference Manual INTRODUCTION The PMAC2A PC/104 motion controller is a compact, cost-effective version of Delta Tau’s PMAC2 family of controllers. The PMAC2A PC/104 can be composed of three boards in a stack configuration. The baseboard provides four channels of either DAC ±10V or pulse and direction command outputs. The optional axis expansion board provides a set of four additional servo channels and I/O ports.
Hardware Reference Manual HARDWARE SETUP On the Acc-1P, there are a number of jumpers called E-points or W-points that customize the hardware features of the CPU for a given application and must be setup appropriately. The following is an overview grouped in appropriate categories. For an itemized description of the jumper setup configuration, refer to the E-Point Descriptions section.
Hardware Reference Manual Differential Encoders Differential encoder signals (pin 2 to 3) can enhance noise immunity by providing common-mode noise rejection. Modern design standards virtually mandate their use for industrial systems, especially in the presence of PWM power amplifiers, which generate a great deal of electromagnetic interference. Connect pin 1 to 2 to tie differential line to +2.5V •...
Hardware Reference Manual Encoder 4 RP37 6-pin Handwheel Encoder RP55 6-pin Handwheel Encoder Termination Resistors The PMAC provides a socket for termination resistors on the handwheel encoder differential input pairs coming into the board. As shipped, there is no resistor pack in the RP56 socket. If these signals are brought long distances into the PMAC board and ringing at signal transitions is a problem, a SIP resistor pack may be mounted on the RP56 socket to reduce or eliminate the ringing.
Typically, the user connections are actually made to terminal blocks that are attached to the JMACH connectors by a flat cable. The following are the terminal blocks recommended for connections: • 34-Pin IDC header to terminal block breakouts (Phoenix part number 2281063) Delta Tau part number 100-FLKM34-000 •...
Hardware Reference Manual Flags Power Supply Each channel of PMAC has five dedicated digital inputs on the machine connector: PLIMn, MLIMn (overtravel limits), HOMEn (home flag), FAULTn (amplifier fault), and USERn. A power supply from 5 to 24V must be used to power the circuits related to these inputs. This power supply can be the same used to power PMAC and can be connected from the TB1 terminal block or the JMACH1 connector.
Hardware Reference Manual DAC Output Signals If PMAC is not performing the commutation for the motor, only one analog output channel is required to command the motor. This output channel can be either single-ended or differential, depending on what the amplifier is expecting. For a single-ended command using PMAC channel 1, connect DAC1+ (pin 29) to the command input on the amplifier.
Each input and each output has its own corresponding ground pin in the opposite row. The 34- pin connector was designed for easy interface to OPTO-22 or equivalent optically isolated I/O modules. Delta Tau’s Acc-21F is a six-foot cable for this purpose. Characteristics of the JOPTO port on the PMAC: •...
The Thumbwheel Multiplexer Port, or Multiplexer Port, on the JTHW connector has sixteen lines. These lines can be used to multiplex large numbers of inputs and outputs on the port, and Delta Tau provides accessory boards and software structures (special M-variable definitions) to capitalize on this feature. Up to 32 of the multiplexed I/O boards may be daisy-chained on the port, in any combination.
Hardware Reference Manual When used as non-multiplexed I/O, jumpers E7 and E8 select the I/O lines direction of the JTHW connector. This allows configuring this port as all inputs, all outputs or half inputs and half outputs. If E7 is removed or E8 is installed then the multiplexing feature if the JTHW port cannot be used. Handwheel Port (JHW / PD Port) This port provides an extra encoder input or a set of pulse and direction outputs.
Flex CPU design. Communications Delta Tau provides software tools that allow communicating with of the PMAC2A PC/104 board by either its standard RS-232 port or the optional USB or Ethernet ports. PEWIN is the most important in the series of software accessories, and it allows configuring and programming the PMAC for any particular application.
Hardware Reference Manual General-Purpose Digital Inputs and Outputs If one Acc-1P is present on the PMAC2A PC/104 stack configuration then its jumpers E5 and E6 should be set at the default position 1-2. In this case, the lines on its J7 general-purpose I/O connector will be mapped into PMAC’s address space in register Y:$C080.

Hardware Reference Manual Thumbwheel Port Digital Inputs and Outputs The inputs and outputs on the thumbwheel multiplexer port of either the Acc-1P or the Acc-2P boards may be used as discrete, non-multiplexed I/O. In this case, these I/O lines can be accessed through M- variables that are defined according to the setup of the address selection jumpers.
Hardware Reference Manual Analog Inputs Setup The optional analog-to-digital converter inputs are ordered either through Option-12 on the baseboard or Option-2 on the axes expansion board. Each option provides two 12-bit analog inputs with a ±10Vdc range. The M-variables associated with these inputs provided a range of values between +2048 and – 2048 for the respective ±10Vdc input range.
Hardware Reference Manual SOFTWARE SETUP (Turbo PMAC2A-PC104 and Clipper) Filtered DAC Outputs Configuration Although the Clipper Board uses standard Turbo PMAC2 firmware certain I-variables must be set properly to use the digital-to-analog (filtered DAC) outputs. For the first ACC-1P board, the E5 jumper should be set 1-2 to enable the four channels as motors 5-8 at base address $78100.
