Geo MACRO Drive
 
1- or 2-Axis Direct PWM Amplifier with MACRO interface
 
Part Number: GMXXXXXX
Enlarge

The Geo MACRO Drive interfaces to the controller through the fiber-optic MACRO 125 Mbit/sec ring or RJ45 (default), accepting numerical command values and returning numerical feedback values over the ring. Normal ring operation allows a choice of sending PWM commands, torque commands, velocity commands or position commands. The Geo MACRO Drive accepts many types of motor position feedback for loop control and feedback to the master controller. I/O can be transmitted on the ring for high level integration such as limits, home flag and general-purpose I/O points. Typically, the Geo MACRO Drives are commanded by either a Turbo PMAC2 Ultralite board, UMAC or QMAC System, providing a convenient solution for distributed or centralized control using a fiber optics connection or RJ45.
