QuickSilver has added a CANopen option to its smallest (2”/52mm x 2.5”/63mm) most cost effective closed loop stepper motor controller.  CANopen can be configured for peer-to-peer, master or slave which allows the controllers to share I/O and registers with other CANopen enabled SilverDust controllers or 3rd party CANopen devices (i.e. I/O blocks, encoders, PLCs…).  For a multi-axis system, connect several MG-Cs, make one the master and let the others receive motion commands over CANopen. 

 

This single axis, programmable controller/driver is specially designed to servo 3rd party stepper motors creating a closed loop stepper system, or, in other words, a servo system using a stepper motor.  It also includes serial communications (RS-232, RS-485), and 7 I/O.  The RS-232/RS-485 serial network runs independently in parallel to CAN for supervisory control from a host (i.e. PC, PLC, HMI..).   

 

The 7 bi-directional I/O, 12V-48V input power, and communications signals are accessed through the DB15HD port and can be separated using one of our popular breakouts (QCI-BO-B, QCI-BO-B1, QCI-BO-B1A). 

 

Other MG-C Features:


  • 12-48V DC Input Power (UL CE)
  • 7 TTL, Bi-Directional I/O
    For 24V use QCI-BO-B52
  • 4 Analog Inputs

    • ~3000 program lines
  • R2-232/485(ASCII, Modbus® RTU)
  • 3.5A Continuous/4.5A Peak
  • CANopen
  • 100:1 Inertial Miss-Match
  • PVIA™ Servo Loop
  • Point To Point Moves
