Description
Compatible with GE Parks Systems RX3I and RX7I controllers. These modules are hard to find with special features including resolvers, SSI and LDS interfaces and PLS controllers.AMCI’s PLC modules plug directly into the System RX3I or RX7I controllers. These specialised I/O modules are programmed using the PLC’s native software (most commonly the Profiki Machine Edition). Combining stand-alone parsing technology and PLC communications in a plug-in module. These fully programmable modules have one to four resolver inputs and provide absolute position, tachometer and fault diagnostic data for single and multi-turn applications. Providing absolute position and speed data for programmable controllers, AMCI’s Linear Displacement Sensor Interface Modules are direct connections between BALUff and MTS Linear Displacement Sensors (LDS) with start/stop or piezo M outputs.
Supplied exclusively through MECO, it enables the marking system to connect and communicate directly with the plant floor programmable logic controller. This new technology results in an Ethernet/IP solution that greatly reduces custom programming and eliminates the need for a fragile PC on the shop floor. Ethernet/IP simply uses a command to mark a job file, allowing the marking device to be controlled by the PLC via Ethernet/IP. As a result, what would normally take 30 or more hours of programming and integration work with other marking systems may now be reduced to eight minutes with the ESE Marker, which includes additional configuration files.” Most factory equipment is controlled by PLCS to automate processes in the assembly line. Devices such as conveyors, robotic devices and vision systems often use Ethernet/IP to communicate directly with the PLC.
These modules provide a direct connection to most sensors that output SSI data. Programmable features include: clock frequency, data type, position preset, counting direction and data scaling.AMCI’s programmable limit switch modules each accept a resolver input for axis position feedback and control outputs based on resolver position, programmed up/down SETT points, and programmable speed compensation values with no processor intervention. The need for additional PLC hardware and vendor-supplied middleware is greatly reduced.” The DAS server for connecting to GE is compliant with the OPC 2.05 protocol, making any OPC client application interoperable. In addition, OPC clients can browse the DAD server ‘configured with a database of tags, which makes it easy to obtain device tags for use in client applications. This time-saving feature provides a convenient way to retrieve and build tag databases in client applications.
