Accelnet Plus 2-Axis Module EtherCATRoHS
AE2
CopleyControls
Seventeen high-speed digital inputs with programmable functions are provided, and two low-speed inputs for motor temperature switches.
An SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) function is supported by another high-speed input and four high-speed digital outputs. If not used for SPI, the input and outputs are programmable for other functions. Three open-drain MOSFET outputs can drive loads powered up to 24 Vdc.
An RS-232 serial port provides a connection to Copley’s CME2 software for commissioning, firmware upgrading, and saving configurations to flash memory.
Drive power is transformer-isolated DC from regulated or unregulated power supplies. An AuxHV input is provided for “keep-alive” operation permitting the drive power stage to be completely powered down without losing position information, or communications with the control system.

Accelnet AE2 is a dual-axis, high-performance, DC powered
servo drive for position, velocity, and torque control of brushless and brush motors via EtherCAT, an Ethernet-based fieldbus. Using advanced FPGA technology, the AE2 provides a significant reduction in the cost per node in multi-axis EtherCAT systems.
Each of the two nodes in the AE2 operates as an EtherCAT slave using the CANopen over EtherCAT (CoE) protocol of DSP-402 for motion control devices. Supported modes include: Cyclic Synchronous Position-Velocity-Torque, Profile Position-Velocity-Torque, Interpolated Position Mode (PVT), and Homing.
Command sources also include ±10V analog velocity/torque, PWM velocity/torque, and stepper command pulses.
Feedback from a number of incremental and absolute encoders is supported.
