Pre configured differential/open set with 3 pulse output jumpers, matched with on-site switch types for limit dialing

2. Installation steps for Class III boards

PCI-8164: Turn off the power and insert it into the 32-bit PCI slot for fixation. Connect the 24V power supply → CN2 servo cable → handwheel/synchronization terminal in sequence

2. MPC-8164: PC104 stacked installation, set non conflicting addresses and interrupts through SW1/JP1, and then connect external IO

3. PXI-8164: Insert the PXI chassis slot, lock the buckle, and use the chassis backplane to synchronize the clock uniformly

Working principle of motion control core

2. CW/CCW dual pulse: Two pulses move positively and negatively respectively

3. AB orthogonal phase pulse: analog encoder output, compatible with special drivers

2. Two major types of speed curves

1. Trapezoidal Curve: Constant Acceleration and Deceleration, Simple Point Location Scene

2. S-curve: Smooth transition at the beginning and end of acceleration and deceleration, divided into linear segments and S-buffer segments. Linear pure S-mode can be turned off to reduce mechanical vibration

3. All sports modes
