Application Guide

The Glentek Nema 34 and Nema 42 servo motors are supplied with 5000 line encoders. This high resolution (20,0000 counts per revolution) provides a smoother higher bandwidth velocity loop for fine machining finishes.

To take full advantage of this high step resolution capability, the pulse data required from the Artsoft software would have to be as shown in the following example:

A milling machine with a 5 pitch ball screw traveling at 400 inches per minute would require the follow- ing calculated data rate:

400 in

1 rev

20,000 pulses

1 min

———– X ———— X ————————

X ————— = 666.7 KHz

min

0.2 in

1 rev

60 sec

In this example, 1 pulse would equal 0.00001 inches of axis travel.

If you decide to have one pulse equal to 0.0001 inches of travel in the above example, the maximum data pulse rate would be 66.7 KHz.

It is our understanding that the Sound Logic Breakout board is currently being updated to operate with the USB port of a standard computer and this will allow higher data transfer rates.

Glentek servo motors and servo amplifiers provide the highest quality and reliability as well as being reasonably priced.

Note:

When operating in the pulse and direction stepper mode, make sure to disable (inhibit) the am- plifier before powering down and powering up your command control logic. We have noticed that when removing power from some break out boards, false pulses are output to the amplifier as the power fades, and causes unwanted motion. This unwanted motion will continue until the BUS voltage of the amplifier is completely faded to zero.

It should be noted that whenever you remove the inhibit, the input pulse accumulating buffer is always reset to zero.

Amplifier specifications

SMC Networks Amplifier is a versatile device designed to enhance and extend wireless network coverage in both home and office environments. With the increasing reliance on Wi-Fi for accessing the internet, having a robust amplifier can significantly improve the quality and reach of your network signal. The SMC Networks Amplifier stands out for its user-friendly design, performance features, and advanced technologies.

One of the standout features of the SMC Networks Amplifier is its dual-band functionality. It operates on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies, providing users with the flexibility to choose the best frequency for their needs. The 2.4GHz band offers wider coverage and is ideal for basic tasks such as web browsing and email, while the 5GHz band provides faster speeds and is perfect for bandwidth-intensive activities like gaming and streaming.

The amplifier's smart signal indicator helps users find the optimal placement for their devices, ensuring that the amplifier can effectively boost the signal from the router. This feature eliminates the guesswork often associated with setting up network extenders, allowing for a seamless installation process.

In terms of technology, the SMC Networks Amplifier employs advanced MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) technology. MIMO allows the device to send and receive multiple signals simultaneously, increasing throughput and improving the overall performance of the network. This is particularly beneficial in environments with many connected devices, where traditional amplifiers may struggle to maintain a stable connection.

Security is another priority for the SMC Networks Amplifier. It supports various encryption standards such as WPA2, ensuring that your network remains secure from unauthorized access. Additionally, the amplifier is compatible with a wide array of devices, from smartphones and tablets to smart home devices, making it an excellent addition to any modern network setup.

Another notable characteristic of the SMC Networks Amplifier is its sleek, compact design. It blends seamlessly with home or office decor and does not require extensive setup. The intuitive interface allows easy configuration, even for those with limited technical knowledge.

Overall, the SMC Networks Amplifier is an excellent choice for users looking to boost their wireless coverage. With its dual-band capability, advanced MIMO technology, robust security features, and easy installation process, it provides a comprehensive solution for enhancing Wi-Fi connectivity. Whether you are a casual user or a heavy internet user, the SMC Networks Amplifier is designed to meet your networking needs effectively.
