Pin-Out Description for DMC-1700/1800

Outputs

 

Analog Motor Command

+/- 10 Volt range signal for driving amplifier. In servo mode, motor

 

command output is updated at the controller sample rate. In the motor

 

off mode, this output is held at the OF command level.

Amp Enable

Signal to disable and enable an amplifier. Amp Enable goes low on

 

Abort and OE1.

PWM/STEP OUT

PWM/STEP OUT is used for directly driving power bridges for DC

 

servo motors or for driving step motor amplifiers. For servo motors: If

 

you are using a conventional amplifier that accepts a +/-10 Volt analog

 

signal, this pin is not used and should be left open. The PWM output is

 

available in two formats: Inverter and Sign Magnitude. In the Inverter

 

mode, the PWM (25kHz) signal is .2% duty cycle for full negative

 

voltage, 50% for 0 Voltage and 99.8% for full positive voltage (25kHz

 

Switching Frequency). In the Sign Magnitude Mode (Jumper SM), the

 

PWM (50 kHz) signal is 0% for 0 Voltage, 99.6% for full voltage and

 

the sign of the Motor Command is available at the sign output (50kHz

 

Switching Frequency).
