RMC100 Analog Interface Modules

This set of RMC100 modules allow the RMC to interface with analog transducers. Three different analog modules are available:

Analog
Module
12-bit
±10V Outputs
12-bit Inputs 16-bit Inputs Input Ranges
-H 2 - 4 10V, ±10V, 5V, ±5V, 4-20mA
-G 2 - 2 10V, ±10V
-A - 4 - 10V, ±10V, 5V, ±5V, 4-20mA

The -H module includes drive outputs and is capable of controlling high-precision pressure, force, and position applications. The -G module also includes drive outputs and provides cost-effective analog position and pressure control. The -A module is capable of accepting pressure, force, and analog reference (e.g. joystick) inputs.

Pressure and force control require the RMC101 or RMC151 CPU. With this CPU an axis can maintain a specified force or follow a force profile. This option also supports smooth transitions between position and pressure while in motion. In many applications, position/pressure control with just one valve simplifies hydraulics and improves performance.

Notice that the -G module does not support current (4-20mA) feedback.

Four-Input 16-bit Module Features

Two-Input 16-bit Module Features

Current output up to ±200mA is available on both the two- and four-input 16-bit modules with the VC2100 or VC2124 converter option (see Motion Control Accessories).
