ZMC432H is one EtherCAT motion control edge controller made in Chinese Zmotion. And ZMC432H was introduced briefly before. Now, Zmotion would like to share more information about ZMC432H EtherCAT edge programmable industrial controller with you, therefore, one series article on ZMC432H will be shown.
Here, the first part, hardware interfaces introduction of ZMC432H EtherCAT edge programmable industrial controller.
EtherCAT motion control edge controller ZMC432H supports self-researched and self-controlled software and hardware. And this EtherCAT edge controller is an independent motion controller that is compatible with EtherCAT bus and pulse.
In addition, it not only supports motion control, but also supports HMI.
A. motion control
ZMC432H EtherCAT motion controller supports 32 axes motion control at most.
ZMC432H has rich hardware interfaces and control functional modules.
-Achieve High Effective & Stable Motion Control and Real Time Data Acquisition-
-For Industrial Control with Industrial Internet Together-
B. HMI
ZMC432H EtherCAT motion controller supports Zmotion remote display function.
-Provide Network Configuration Display-
- Real Time Watch & Adjust Parameters-
What's more, Linux system is built in ZMC432H. That is, it can be connected through local LOCAL interface, then, instruction interaction speed can be faster. The one interaction time of one single instruction and multiple instructions is about 40us.
(1) Basic Parameters
(2) More Parameters
Here only shows some generally used parameters.
For more information, it can be checked by ourselves, that is, through RTSys.
RTSys is updated from ZDevelop.
As we all know, ZDevelop is the programming software developed by Zmotion.
It supports ZBasic, ZPLC and ZHMI programming. Easy to program, debug and diagnose. Then, on the basis of ZDevelop, Zmotion developed more, RTSys is launched.
RTSys (ZDevelop) supports RTBasic (ZBasic), RTPLC (ZPLC), RTHMI (ZHMI) and machine vision RTVision (ZVision) second-development, including hybrid programming. There are many functions, real-time simulation, online tracking, diagnose and debug, etc., then rapidly help you realize vision positioning, vision measurement, vision recognition, vision detection of intelligent equipment, and achieve complex motion control system development.
In short, RTSys supports more function and it is with more tools.
How to check more?
-- connect RTSys programming software to controller (ZMC432H)
-- enterthe command in RTSys "online & output"
-- send the command out
Then, all related parameters are appeared in the "output" window.
Different commands correspond to different parameters.
?*max - controller specification parameters
?*set - command parameter values
?*port - port information
Connect to controller and PC through serial port or ethernet, then, send commands to controller.
Specifically, communicate with external devices through RS232, RS485 and ethernet.
In addition, when resources are not enough, expansion modules can be used. It supports EtherCAT or CAN expansion modules, the corresponding interfaces are EtherCAT bus interface and CAN bus interface.
--Interfaces Introduction By A Video--
EtherCAT edge programmable industrial controller is one of key elements for industrial internet. Therefore, Zmotion developed ZMC432H EtherCAT edge programmable industrial controller to provide one-stop-shop solutions for industrial internet users in intellectual manufacture.
In this way:
Achieve connection between manufacture devices.
Share & Interact internal data fully.
Optimize production process.
Apply for markets.
ZMC432H features in industrial scheme:
32 axes EtherCAT bus control , with 1ms refresh cycle
6 10MHz high-speed differential pulse outputs, hybrid interpolation of bus axes and pulse axes is valid
come with inputs and outputs, analog inputs and analog outputs
RS232/RS485 can be connected to instrument, sensor , etc.
EtherNET can be connected to MES, cloud platform .
Linux system can be configured to realize differentiation in process development.
hardware core element in ZMC432H is made in China, including motion control kernel "runtime" software "MotionRT", it is researched and developed.
There is one solution example, please refer to the below graphic.
It covers general motion control engine and real-time kernel MotionRT, and we can program through PC side IDE RTSys (original environment: ZDevelop). That is, in one single hardware platform, it can achieve integrated control to reduce costs and promote system stability and safety.
ZMC432H EtherCAT edge programmable industrial controller is made for market's requirements.
Robot, electronic semi-conductor equipment, dispensing equipment, non-standard equipment, printing and package, lithium new energy, medical devices, assemble line, etc.
