Advantech's New PCI-bus Motion Card-A PCI-1240 Overview

Advantech Industrial Automation is happy to announce the latest development in PCI-bus 4-Axis Stepping/Pulse-type Servo Motor Control Cards. Advantech's PCI-1240 is a high-speed four axis motion control card for PCI bus that simplifies stepping and pulse-type servo motor control, giving you added performance from your motors. The card's intelligent NOVA® MCX314-motion ASIC builds in a variety of motion control functions, such as 2/3-axis linear interpolation, 2-axis circular interpolation, T/S-curve acceleration/deceleration rate and more. In addition, the PCI-1240 performs these motion control functions without draining the processor during driving. For advanced applications, we supply Windows DLL drivers and user-friendly examples to reduce your programming load. Moreover, through a free bundled PCI-1240 motion utility, you can complete configuration and diagnosis easily.

Continuous Interpolation:
Continuous uninterrupted motion can be maintained between circular, linear, and simple command move profiles. The maximum interpolation speed is 2 MHz.

Constant Vector Speed Control:
The PCI-1240 can set a 1.414-times pulse cycle for 2-axis simultaneous pulse output, and a 1.732-times pulse cycle for 3-axis simultaneous pulse output.
