Intelligent Motion Control and Machine Vision Features AMAX-3285 8-axis pulse output (max. 5 MHz) Encoder input is 10 MHz for 4xAB mode and 2.5 MHz for CW/CCW mode Switchable board ID Highly visible LED indicators on board for easy diagnosis Direct wire to servo drive saves terminal board space during installation Supports horizontal installation for servo or stepping motor driver Suitable for DIN rail mounting Introduction AMAX-3285 provides the ability to connect step motor drives and servo motor drives with CW/CCW and Pulse/Direction interfaces to EtherCAT networks controlled by Advantech EtherCAT master PCI-1203. Both model types have open frame designs for horizontal placement and an interface connector mounted on the board. With a to-servo-drive transfer cable, both models can be conveniently connected to Mitsubishi J3/J4, Yaskwa Sigma V/7, and Panasonic A4/A5 servos. AMAX-3285 is 8-axis EtherCAT motion slave module that supports motion interpolation, axes synchronization, and continuous contouring. Advantech also provides a common motion API library, graphical utility, and user-friendly examples to reduce the programming load and facilitate easy configuration and diagnosis.
