Differential Analogue Input
The ViX stepper drive can accept a differential analogue input for use with the FRATE
command. The input circuit, shown in Figure 3-12, can interface to an external +/-10V
differential signal. Analogue to digital conversion (12-bit resolution) converts the analogue
input to a digital value for use within the drive. Read the value of the analogue input as a
count via system variable AI.
