Page 3: Warranty / Liability
WARRANTY / LIABILITY WARRANTY / LIABILITY The AxeMotion CNC modules are guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship for one full year from the date of purchase. This warranty cannot apply if electrical connections and prescriptions of use that are described in this guide have been strictly observed. An installation that does not comply with these prescriptions invalidates the warranty for con- sequent damages. - Page 4 For the sake of quality PulseBox NxtG Module consists of a 4-layer PCB and uses only high-end components, it also has several ESD protection circuits for signals leading to the DB25 connector and the USB connector.
- Page 5 Technical data: - Native USB transmission at ultra-fast speed - Connection and power supply from USB port (consumption < 90 mA) - Complete emulation of old CNC drives through parallel port - Control of 4 axes, simultaneously interpolated - Maximum frequency 100 KHz in interpolation - Local memory buffer 6 Kb (400 commands ahead) - Interpolations with constant speed, variable speed, and double-ramps - Management of fast braking along multiple vectors...
- Page 6 WIRING WIRING The AxeMotion PulseBox NxtG module has three connectors: - The USB cable must be plugged on the host computer (USB 2.0 connection, USB 1.1 compatible). Generic driver (no installation). - The DB-25 connector emulates the LPT parallel port and should be plugged on the motor power stage.
- Page 7 50 mA maximum for the whole set of outputs. Consequently, a bad connection or an overload may cause damages in the PulseBox NxtG module, or even in the host computer. So it is very important to make sure that all devices that are driven by the module are carefully isolated and do not require too much current.
- Page 8 PARAMET ERS IN GALAAD Galaad integrated soft- ware for CAD-CAM-CNC is compatible with the Ax- eMotion PulseBox NxtG mo-dule that it can drive in optimal conditions. In Galaad or one of its re- lated modules, call the menu command "Para- meters / Machine / Full data".
- Page 9 Now you must setup the internal data of the PulseBox NxtG module, and also the signals on the pins of the DB-25 connector that links to the power stage. Still in this page "Controller" of Galaad machine parameters, click on the small button "More…"...
- Page 10 Please note that Clock (pulse) and Dir (direction) signals can be output to pins 2-9 only, and the eventual PWM signal cannot be output to these 2-9 pins, so the PulseBox NxtG remains compatible with an LPT parallel port. All other configurations are allowed.
