GE FANUC IC693DSM314 , Digital Servo Module , 90-30 Series CPU
Product Description
The Motion Mate Digital Servo Module IC693DSM314 by GE Fanuc
operates as a motion control module for the 90-30 series. This
module functions in two modes: digital mode and analog mode.
Digital mode is designed for compatibility with digital servos
while analog mode must be used to control servos that feature
analog command input.
IC693DSM314 is compatible with Series 90-30 CPUs that are equipped
with firmware release 10.0 or later. The IC693DSM314 is not
compatible with certain CPU’s. These CPU’s will have part numbers
that end in CPU311 through 341 and 351. This module has
non-volatile storage for 10 programs and 40 subroutines. The user
can create programs and subroutines for the system via the VersaPro
software using Version 1.1 or later. Its design features include:
block processing time that is under 5 milliseconds; automatic data
transfer between PLC tables and DSM314 without user programming;
home and overtravel switch inputs for each Servo axis; user scaling
of programming units (User Units) in both Standard and Follower
modes; velocity feed forward and position error integrator to
enhance tracking accuracy and quadrature encoder input for follower
master axis.
Additionally, this module features recipe programming using command
parameters. This kind of programming is available for velocity,
move, acceleration, and dwell commands. It also has an incremental
quadrature encoder input on each axis which is used in
encoder/analog mode. The IC693DSM314 features 5V, 24V and analog
I/O for use by PLC; high-speed digital output (four each 24V and
four each 5V) via on board Local Logic Control, and 13-bit Analog
Output can be controlled by PLC or used as Digital Servo Tuning
monitor.
It is designed with high resolution of programming units (position:
-536,870,912 … +536,870,911 user units; velocity 1 … 8,388,607 user
units/sec; acceleration: 1 … 1,073,741,823 user units/sec/sec);
single point of connection for all programming and configurations
tasks, including motion program creation (Motion Programs 1 – 10)
and Local Logic programming. When programming and configuring this
module, the user must utilize the programming communications port.
In turn, the CPU loads all configuration, motion programs, and
Local Logic programs to the DSM314 across the PLC backplane.
The DSM firmware is stored in the Flash memory. The user must
update the firmware via the IC693DSM314 module’s front panel COMM
port. The module controls GE Fanuc α Series and β Series Digital
services, SL-series servos, or third-party servos with analog
velocity command or analog torque command interface. The two
Position Capture Strobe Inputs for each axis can capture axis
and/or master position with an accuracy of ±2 counts plus 10
microseconds of variance.
