INTRODUCTION Overview The PMAC2A-PC/104 motion controller is a compact, cost-effective version of the Delta Tau’s PMAC2 family of controllers. The PMAC2A-PC/104 can be composed of three boards in a stack configuration. The base board 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.
PMAC2A-PC/104 Option 6: Extended Firmware Algorithm Option 6 provides an Extended (Pole-Placement) Servo Algorithm firmware instead of the regular servo algorithm firmware. This is only required in difficult-to-control systems (resonances, backlash, friction, disturbances, changing dynamics). Option 6L: Multi-block lookahead firmware Option 6L provides a special lookahead firmware for sophisticated acceleration and cornering profiles execution.
PMAC2A-PC/104 ACC-2P: Communications Board Without any options the PMAC2A-PC/104 communicates through the RS-232 serial interface using the optional ACC- 3L flat cable. Only one method of communication is allowed at a time. ACC-2P Option 1A: USB Interface Option 1A it provides a 12 Mbit/sec USB interface allowing USB communications with the PMAC2A-PC/104 motion controller.
PMAC2A-PC/104 ACC-2P Option 3: I/O ports Option 3 provides the following ports on the ACC-2P communications board for digital I/O connections. • Multiplexer Port: this connector provides eight input lines and eight output lines at TTL levels. When using the PMAC ACC-34x type boards these lines allow multiplexing large numbers of inputs and outputs on the port.
PMAC2A-PC/104 BASE BOARD HARDWARE SETUP On the PMAC2-PC/104 base board, you will see many jumpers (pairs of metal prongs), called E-points or W-points. Some have been shorted together; others have been left open. These jumpers customize the hardware features of the base board for a given application and must be setup appropriately. The following is an overview of the several jumpers grouped in appropriate categories.
PMAC2A-PC/104 CPU Jumper Configuration E15A-E15C: Flash Memory Bank Select Jumpers – The flash-memory IC in location U10 on the PMAC2A-PC/104 base board has the capacity for eight separate banks of firmware, only one of which can be used at any given time. The eight combinations of settings for jumpers E15A, E15B, and E15C select which bank of the flash memory is used.

PMAC2A-PC/104 The ‘-‘ inputs of each differential pair each have a hard-wired 2.2 kΩ resistor to +5V; each also has another 2.2 kΩ resistor as part of a socketed resistor pack that can be configured as a pull-up resistor to +5V, or a pull-down resistor to GND.

PMAC2A-PC/104 ACC-1P HARDWARE SETUP On the ACC-1P, you will see many jumpers (pairs of metal prongs), called E-points. Some have been shorted together; others have been left open. These jumpers customize the hardware features of the ACC- 1P for a given application and must be setup appropriately. The following is an overview of the several jumpers grouped in appropriate categories.

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. •...
PMAC2A-PC/104 DAC Outputs Power Supply 0.3A @ +12 to +15V (4.5W) 0.25A @ -12 to -15V (3.8W) (Eight-channel configuration) • The host computer provides the ±12 Volts power supply in the case PMAC is installed in the PC/104 bus. With the board stack into the bus, it will automatically pull ±12V power from the bus and it cannot be disconnected.
PMAC2A-PC/104 setup, through the I-variables I9n2. However, for the following reasons, the same type of switches used for over-travel limits are recommended: • Normally closed switches are proven to have greater electrical noise rejection than normally open types. • Using the same type of switches for every input flag simplifies maintenance stock and replacements.
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 Accessory 21F is a six-foot cable for this purpose. Characteristics of the JOPTO port on the PMAC: •...
The output 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.
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.
For serial communications, use a serial cable to connect your PC's COM port to the J8 serial port connector present on the PMAC2A-PC/104 base board. Delta Tau provides the Accessory 3L cable for this purpose that connects the PMAC to a DB-9 connector. Standard DB-9-to-DB-25 or DB-25-to-DB-9 adapters may be needed for your particular setup.
Flex CPU design. Communications Delta Tau provides software tools that allow communicating with of the PMAC2A-PC/104 board either by 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.
