SB1391 Hardware and Setup Guide - Document revision no. 1.14

1. INTRODUCTION

The SB1391 is a powerful and cost effective combination of an advanced programmable

controller, an all-digital drive, and a power supply (with a separate, backup input for the control

section).

The universal drive is software configurable for the any of the following types of rotary or linear

motor: DC Brushless (AC servo/AC synchronous) (with sinusoidal s/w commutation), AC

induction, and DC Brush. Three power levels are available: 5A (10A peak), 10A (20A), and 15A

(30A). The bus voltage range is 120Vdc up to 370Vdc (= AC input x 1.41).

The SB1391 supports encoder (+ Hall) or resolver (12-bit resolution) as primary feedback and

encoder as secondary feedback or master. In addition to dedicated safety inputs, it has eight

isolated inputs, eight isolated outputs, an analog input, and an analog output.

1.1. About ACS-Tech80 Motion Control Modules

ACS-Tech80 control modules are based on state of the art, proprietary technology that is used in

thousands of demanding systems, such as, semiconductor assembly and testing, electronic

assembly and inspection, digital printing, medical imaging, and packaging. Built-in capabilities

simplify programming common applications, such as advanced pick & place, master/slave, and

electronic gearing and cam.

The modules can be programmed to handle motion, time, and I/O events. They can operate stand-

alone, without a PLC or a PC. RS-232/422/485 serial communications is standard and CAN with

CANOPEN protocol is optional. Every module meets stringent safety and EMC standards and is

CE compliant.

Windows tools are provided for setting up and tuning the modules and for developing application

programs. C/C++ (Microsoft

and Borland) and Visual Basic

libraries are available for DOS,

Windows

3.11/95/98/2000/NT, and Linux. The libraries support multithreading in Windows

95/98/2000/NT.

ACS-Tech80 is certified compliant with the ISO 9001 quality management standard.
