Quad Amp Hardware Reference Manual

Non-Standard Quad Amplifier Setup

This example shows the Quad Amplifier setup with PMAC axes 1, 2, 7, and 8 are connected to first Quad Amplifier #1 and PMAC Axes 3, 4, 5 and 6 are connected to first Quad Amplifier #2. Since first Quad Amplifier channels 1-2 and 3-4 share ADC clock signals, the PMAC channels connected to these amplifier channels must be generated at the same Gate Array.

Accessory Terminal Board (Acc-8F, Acc-24E2)

Each Quad Amplifier requires one or two Acc-8F accessory terminal boards to interface to the PMAC2. The Acc-8F boards provide easy and straightforward connections between the Quad Amplifier and the PMAC2, as well as to the encoders. The cables required to connect the Acc-8F to the PMAC2 PC are provided with each Acc-8F. Refer to the PMAC2 Acc-8F User Manual.

PWM Input Cables

36-inch PWM input cables (Acc-8F, Opt 5) are available from Delta Tau Data Systems, Inc. One cable is required for each PWM axis.

Connectors

All Quad Amplifier connectors are identified in Figures 5 and 6 . The signal connections between PMAC2 and Acc-8F are marked as Axis 1 through Axis 4 on the first Quad Amplifier bottom panel. The detailed pin-outs and signals between the Acc-8F and the first Quad Amplifier are shown in the table following Figure 6.
