1. Product Description The PCI express slot card Tango PCIe, hereafter named "Controller", is a device for driving 2/4 phase stepper motors. In the operation mode "automatic operation" the card can be operated by using the PCIe slot of a PC or optionally with an adapter board via RS232 or USB interface.
Controller. 3. Manufacturer's Declaration Herewith we declare that the positioning controller Tango PCIe is not a ready-for-use or ready-for-connection device as mentioned in the " Directive: General Product Safety”, the “EMI Directive“ or in the "EC-Machine Guideline”, but a component.
The fuses F601 and F602 has only to be replaced by Märzhäuser Wetzlar. In case of a defect the controller has to be sent to the service address (see chapter 9.2). ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 100118 Operating Manual Tango PCIe.doc, 20.01.2010 12:22:00 Page 5 of 22...
Power Stage Enable: When a Jumper is located at Pin 1+2, the power stages can be enabled. When the Jumper is removed, the power stages can be enabled by connecting X403, Pin 12 and 13 together.

The joysticks shown in the illustration above may only be used with the Tango Controller. Please read the chapter Safety Instructions carefully before using the joystick with the Tango PCIe Controller. The joysticks are delivered with relaxed joystick mechanics. Slide both pushers, which are situated underneath and to the right of the joystick, towards the middle (see image above).
Key CENTRE: The resolution becomes coarser. The travelling range per ball turn increases. Key RIGHT: Can be interrogated by the user via interface or can be evaluated by the Controller (special function assignment on request). ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 100118 Operating Manual Tango PCIe.doc, 20.01.2010 12:22:00 Page 16 of 22...
AUX I/O Bracket Image 8: Tango PCIe Cable Set Internal Wiring The cable set Internal Wiring is used to lead out the optional connections for motor voltage (if an external power supply is used), module axis 4 and AUX I/O. Depending on the order, there may be 1 or 2 cables installed on the bracket.
Encoder axis 3 Image 10: Encoder interface PCIe The encoder interface PCIe may be used exclusively with the Tango PCIe Controller. The mechanical design varies depending upon installation situation. The interface will be delivered installed on a Tango controller. For the PC versions of the Tango, a bracket is mounted on the board (refer to image 11).
