voltage range for PCI-7344

[yogesh_patil79@yahoo.com]

Hello,

I am using PCI-7344 4 axis servo/step motion controller for windows. I want to know about minimum and maximum range of voltage this board can handle or what range i can use with this board. Please help me out with this.

thanx

Yogesh,

here are the specs:

Analog Output range:
-10V to +10V
You can set limits for the DAC output in MAX (Axis Settings -> Miscellaneous)

Analog Input ranges:
-10 V to 10V
0V to 10 V
-5V to 5V
0V to 5V

I hope this answers your question.

Best regards,

The input voltage of all digital inputs, including encoder and limit/home switch inputs, should be limited to +5V with reference to digital ground. The 73x4 have protection circuits against higher voltages but still there is risk that the board will be damaged.

The UMI-7774/72 (778558-01/778556-01) has 24V isolation that you can couple with the PCI-7344 if you need better protection.

Here is a link to the UMI's data sheet:
