Actuators
Includes:
- 830X Picomotor Actuators
- 8401 rotary stage
- 8351 Tiny Picomotor Actuator
- 8310 closed loop driver
Driver
There seem to be at least two different driver systems: “intelligent” / network system and stand alone drivers.
Network
Basically a controller receives input from either a joystick, pendant, ethernet, or RS-232 which then relays a signal to RS-485 daisy chained (Distributed Control Network (DCN)) open and/or closed loop drivers. Free Windows DLL available (advertised in manual, haven't looked into it). Runs off of 24VDC using standard Phoenix Contact Combicon compatible quick disconnects.
Major family components:
- 8750 Intelligent Picomotor Network Controller
- Input: RS-232 or joystick
- Output: DCN
- Does not support 8751-C driver
- Does not support 8757 hand terminal
- 8751 iPico closed loop driver
- Used with 8310 actuator
- Output: 1 4-pin single channel picomotor driver
- 8752 Intelligent Picomotor Ethernet Controller
- Input: RS-232, joystick, or ethernet
- Output: DCN
- Supports 8751-C driver
- NOTE: requires firmware 1.5.0+
- Supports 8757 hand terminal
- 8753 iPico open loop driver
- Output: 3 4-pin single channel picomotor driver
- XXX: why 4 pins if its just a peizo?
- Multi axis devices require 8725 multi-axis adapter
- 8754 iPoco joystick
- Use directly with 8750 (or 8752 I presume)
- Standard DCN device…should be able to put in daisy-chain
- 8757 iPico Handpad / Hand Terminal
- LS-784 Open Emitter I/O module
Additionally:
- 8721 10' comm cable
- 8722 Comm adapter
- 8724 5“ comm cable
- 8725 multi-axis adapter
- 8726 6” power cable
- 8755 power supply
- 8763-KIT: 8752 ethernet controller + 8753 driver + power supply + cables
