PM COM EMULATOR application allows users to “test drive” serial servo commands and replies. Requires PM USB adapter and Windows PC.
ELECTRO MECHANICAL HIGHLIGHTS
MAGNETIC ENCODER CHIPS replace vulnerable potentiometer systems used in most servos. The digital solution gives ultimate precision and ensures reliability in the harshest applications.
ADVANCED 32 BIT PROCESSORS manage a 10kHz internal control loop. This computing headroom facilitates the following enhanced characteristics.
PROGRAMMABLE NEUTRAL at any position in the 360° arc.
MULTI-TURN capabilities. Simply command total number of degrees required.
CURRENT CONTROLLED OPERATION: servo motor is only permitted to draw current that will perform useful work. Each PM servo type has been carefully mapped to determine optimal torque/current curves. Controlled current results in significant extension of motor life.
HIGH FREQUENCY MOTOR SWITCHING places servo motor operation above the audible range.
USB SERIAL COM EMULATOR assists users with development of their applications.
SELF-PROTECTION features in the firmware prevent PM SERIAL servos from overheating when commanded movement is blocked. User may choose servo response (hold, continue, release).
ELECTRICAL
Operating voltage 4.8-12V Position sensor 0.1° magnetic encoder Travel & Multiple turn Unlimited multiple turns. Neutral position Set neutral at any point in the 360° rotation. Does not limit resulting range of motion. Users may install servos in application and then set neutral position. Neutral point is durable. Number of turns durable within power cycle. Motor Coreless Motor PWM freq. 40kHz - Inaudible + results in increased motor power. Input freq. 56 kb/s
