ECONO
DMC-41x3 motion
controller. Available
as card-level or box-level
in 1- through 8-axis
versions.
The DMC-41x3 motion controller is Galil’s latest generation Econo motor controller. Compared with the
DMC-21x3 Econo controller, the DMC-41x3 offers the
following enhancements: 100BASE-T Ethernet, aux
RS232 port, USB port, uncommitted analog inputs,
accepts 15 MHz encoder frequencies, more program
memory, and faster sample frequencies. The DMC-41x3
also accommodates the same stepper and servo motor
drives used in the DMC-40x0 Accelera series and allows
two 4-axis 500 W drives to be installed in the 8-axis
controller package.
The DMC-41x3 is available as a box-level or
card-level motion
controller. The unit
operates stand-alone
or interfaces to a
PC with Ethernet
10/100BASE-T,
or USB. It includes
optically isolated
I/O in addition
to analog inputs
and outputs. The DMC-41x3 controller and drive unit
accepts power from a single 20–80 VDC source.
The DMC-41x3 is available in one through eight
axis formats, and each axis is user-configurable for
stepper or servo motor operation. Standard programming features include PID compensation with velocity
and acceleration feedforward, multitasking for simultaneously running up to eight programs, and I/O processing for synchronizing motion with external events.
Modes of motion include point-to-point positioning,
position tracking, jogging, linear and circular interpolation, contouring, electronic gearing and ECAM. Like all
Galil controllers, the DMC-41x3 controllers use Galil’s
popular, intuitive command language, making them
very easy to program. GalilTools servo design software
further simplifies system set-up with “one-button”
servo tuning and real-time display of position and
velocity information.
Features
■ Accepts up to 15 MHz encoder frequencies for servos.
Outputs pulses up to 3 MHz for steppers
■ PID compensation with velocity and acceleration feedforward, integration limits, notch filter and low-pass filter

Multitasking for concurrent execution of up to eight
programs
■ Optically isolated home input and forward and reverse
end-of-travel limits for every axis
■ Uncommitted, isolated inputs and isolated outputs
1- through 4-axis models: 8 inputs and 8 outputs
5- through 8-axis models: 16 inputs and 16 outputs
