PMC-1HS High Speed Programmable Motion Controller

Product Information

The Transparent Guide is a motion controller that comes in two variants – 1 axis and 2 axis. It is available in two series – PMC-1HS and PMC-2HS. The product is certified by KCC for commercial use. It is designed to be used with machinery that may cause serious injury or substantial economic loss such as medical equipment, nuclear power control, ships, vehicles, railways, aircraft, combustion apparatus, safety equipment, crime / disaster prevention devices, etc.

Safety Considerations

The following safety instructions must be followed to avoid personal injury, economic loss, or product damage:

  • A fail-safe device must be installed when using the unit with machinery that may cause serious injury or substantial economic loss.
  • Do not use the unit in the place where flammable / explosive / corrosive gas, high humidity, direct sunlight, radiant heat, vibration, impact or salinity may be present.
  • Install on a device panel or DIN rail to use.
  • Do not connect, repair, or inspect the unit while connected to a power source.
  • Check ‘Connections’ before wiring.
  • Do not disassemble or modify the unit.
  • Do not cut off power or disconnect connectors while operating the unit.
  • Install the safety device at the out of the controller for stable system operation against external power error, controller malfunction, etc.

Cautions

The following cautionary instructions must be followed to avoid personal injury or product damage:

  • When connecting the power input, use AWG 28 – 16 (0.081 to 1.31mm2) cable or over.
  • Must use the insulated trans at the power input.
  • Use the unit within the rated specifications.
  • Use a dry cloth to clean the unit, and do not use water or organic solvent.
  • Keep the product away from metal chip, dust, and wire residue which flow into the unit.
  • If a ribbon cable is used as the I/O line, connect the cable correctly and prevent from poor contact.

Ordering Information

The product is available in two variants – 1HS: 1 axis high speed stand alone and 2HS: 2 axis high speed stand alone. It supports two communication types – RS232C and USB / RS232C.

Product Usage Instructions

  1. Install the Transparent Guide on a device panel or DIN rail.
  2. Connect the power input using AWG 28 – 16 (0.081 to 1.31mm2) cable or over. Ensure that the insulated trans is used at the power input.
  3. Check ‘Connections’ before wiring.
  4. Use the unit within the rated specifications.
  5. Clean the unit with a dry cloth, and avoid using water or organic solvent.
  6. Keep the product away from metal chip, dust, and wire residue which flow into the unit.
  7. If a ribbon cable is used as the I/O line, connect the cable correctly and prevent from poor contact.
  8. Download the installation file and manuals for the software program ‘atMotion’ from the Autonics website.
  9. Use the program to manage the motor driver’s parameter setting and monitoring data.
  10. Follow the Autonics website to select the specified model for ordering.
