Motion Coordinator MC202
Overview
The MC202 is a miniature step-
per/servo positioner with the
built-in ability to control one
servo/stepper axis with addi-
tional synchronisation encoder, or
two stepper axes.
The MC202 is designed to provide
a compact, low cost, easy to use
unit for OEM machine builders.
It is designed to be configured
and programmed for the applica-
tion with a PC running the Motion
Perfect application, and then
may be set to run “standalone” if
an external computer is not
required for the final system.
Programming
The Multi-tasking ability of the MC202 allows parts of a complex application to be
developed, tested and run independently, although the tasks can share data and
motion control hardware. On the MC202 up to 3 Trio BASIC programs can be run
simultaneously.
I/O Capability
The MC202 has 4 built in 24v inputs and 4 built-in bi-directional input/output
channels. These may be used for system interaction or may be defined to be used
by the controller for end of travel limits, datuming and feedhold functions if
required. The MC202 can have up 256 external Input/Output channels and up to
32 analog input channels connected using DIN rail mounted I/O modules. These
units connect to the built-in CAN channel of the MC202
Communications
The MC202 has a built-in RS-232 port. A further serial channel is available at TTL
levels. External adapters are available to allow this serial port to be linked to a
full-duplex RS485 channel or a Trio membrane keypad on a fibre-optic link.
If the built-in CAN connection is not being use to for I/O modules it may be used
for CAN communications.
