RMC100 Quadrature

Quadrature Encoder Interface for RMC100 Motion Controllers

The RMC100 controller provides synchronized moves, gearing, splines, teach mode, and position/pressure control for rotary and linear axes.

The RMC100 quadrature feedback modules allow the RMC100 to control motors and linear actuators with quadrature encoder feedback, and are available with either analog (servo) or stepper output.

RMC100 controllers are available with up to eight quadrature axes in increments of two axes per module. Various transducer interfaces (quadrature, MDT, analog, SSI) can be combined within the same controller for maximum flexibility.

Features

Two axes of quadrature feedback per module
4,000,000 counts/second
Index, home, and limit inputs
Drive enable output
Drive fault input
With Analog Output:
- Two isolated, ±10V, 14-bit drive outputs per module
- Current output up to ±200mA is available with the VC2100 or VC2124 converter option (see Motion Control Accessories).
With Stepper Output:
- 1 MHz max step output frequency

Cables

Cables for the QUAD module are available for purchase from Delta. The cables have a DB25 connector on one end and three individual pig-tailed cables for drive, encoder, and limits on the other end. Custom lengths are also available. A wiring diagram can be found in the RMCWin and RMCTools Help.
