NextMove PCI-2

NextMove PCI-2 is the latest generation PCI based motion controller from Baldor. Based around the popular NextMove PCI controller, NextMove PCI-2 offers a pin compatible motion controller with over twice the performance.

NextMove PCI-2 is a compact (7") PCI based controller for the control of up to 12 axes of motion. A single card can control up to 4 axes of servo and 4 axes of stepper. Expansion cards are available to take this to 12 axes of servo and 12 axes of stepper.

On board I/O can be used to control many parts of the machine. This can be further expanded with CANopen devices conforming to the standard DS401 I/O profile.

Versatile programming is provided by means of Mint - multitasking BASIC, embedded 'C' or the supplied ActiveX components.

NextMove PCI-2's large Dual Ported RAM (DPR) allows for fast data transfer between the PC application and NextMove PCI. NextMove PCI-2 is ideally suited in applications where fast data transfer is required, for example high speed contouring applications.

Features:

PCI short card (7 inches) . Compiant to PCI Local Bus specification v2.2. Not compatible with PCI Local Bus specification v3.0, PCI-Express, PCI-X, Mint PCI, CompactPCI or PCI-104.
100-pin high density EMC compliant connector interfacing to optional breakout board
32-bit 120MHz Digital Signal Processor (DSP) offering over twice the performance of the NextMove PCI motion controller
2MByte SRAM for storage of firmware, user programs and data
12kByte NVRAM for non-volatile parameter storage
Up to 8 axes of control on one card - 4 servo and 4 stepper
Expandable to 12 axes with PCI202-504 or PCI202-514 expansion cards
20 uncommitted PNP/NPN isolated digital inputs
Programmable for hardware limits, home input, stop input and error input. 4 of the inputs can be programmed for high speed capture of position with 1 microsecond
12 uncommitted opto-isolated digital outputs. PNP or NPN options available
Programmable for drive enable and high speed position compare output
24V/150mA relay output to signal system error conditions
4 x 12-bit uncommitted analog inputs
Master encoder input for synchronization
32kByte Dual Port RAM (DPR) interface with host interrupt capability
CAN interface for I/O expansion and HMI interfaces conforming to CANopen DS301. Can be used to provide full peer-to-peer networking capabilities with other Mint based controllers
Multitasking programming capability with MintMT. Number of tasks limited only by available memory
Comprehensive move types including: linear, circular and helical interpolation; software cams; flying shears; splines; synchronization with positional offsets and virtual axes
Embedded 'C' programming capability (Note: requires purchase of appropriate Texas Instruments compiler)
ActiveX libraries supplied free of charge
Compatible with Windows 9x/ME/NT4.0/2000/XP
Compatible with MintNC and HPGL
