4-axis Pulse Train Motion Control Modules
General Introduction
4-axis Pulse Train Control Modules
ADLINK HSL-4XMO-CG-N and HSL-4XMO-CD-N are 4-axis pulse train motion control modules based on
the HSL bus. The HSL bus provides a cost-effective distribution solution which reduces wiring and saves space
compared to traditional PCI boards. One HSL bus can support up to 60 axes pulse train motion controllers. The
HSL-4XMO series also offers point table management which can reduce move points in the module and provide
movement without consuming CPU resources.
Velocity and Position Override
The HSL-4XMO provides powerful position and speed changing function while axis is moving. After motion begins,
target of speed or position can be changed on-the-fly at the user's discretion.
Linear & Circular Interpolation
In multi-axis operation, the HSL-4XMO provides linear interpolation by any 2, any 3, or even all 4 axes. Any 2 axes
can also perform circular interpolation.
Continuous Contouring
The pre-register architecture of HSL-4XMO offers the feature to build the continuous interpolation function, where
the second motion may follow previous motion instantly without latency. Thus perfect velocity continuity can be
established.
Hardware Position Compare and Trigger Output
The HSL-4XMO provides position compare and trigger functions. The CMP channel will output a trigger pulse when
encoder counter reaches the compared value preset by the user. Comparison is done by hardware and virtually no CPU
the resource is needed.
Automatic Backlash Compensation
Whenever direction change occurs, the HSL-4XMO outputs backlash corrective pulses before sending commands. During
interpolation mode, this function will be ineffective.
13 Home Return Modes
To fit into various mechanical design and operating restrictions, the HSL-4XMO provides 13 home moving modes for
users to choose from.
