PG Board Specifications

Item Description
Board Name H756
Compatible Controller RC700-A / RC700-D / RC700-E / RC90 / RC800-A
Expansion Capability RC700-A, RC700-D: 4 boards maximum / RC700-E, RC800-A: 3 boards maximum / RC90: 2 boards maximum
Control Axes 4 axes per board
Target Motor Either servo motors or stepper motors can be used.
Output Pulse Rate 0.1 pps to 6.5 Mpps
Speed Setting

100 steps in the program with the flexible maximum speed setting.

The calibration speed can be programmed separately from the normal operation speeds.

Acceleration Settings The program provides 100 steps each for Acceleration and Deceleration. (The maximum acceleration or maximum deceleration setting can be changed.)
Arm Travel Range [pulse] - 2,147,483,647 to 2,147,483,647 (32 bits)
Pulse Output Type Selectable in software: Pulse / Direction Output Method or CW / CCW Pulse Output Method
Rotating Direction Programmable in the software.
Positioning Method The DEND (detection-end) signal generated from the servo drive (when a servo drive is used).
Calibration Selectable from the seven (7) calibration types in the software.
Stop Function The pulse generation to be stopped at the input of either the limit or alarm signal.
S-curved Acceleration/Deceleration Selectable in software
Continuous Rotation Selectable in software
Relative Quantity Travel Selectable in software
Output Signal Counter reset (DRST)signal
Input Signal
  • Origin signal (ORG): Normally open
  • Near-to-origin signal (NORG): Normally open
  • CW limit signal (CWLM). Normally closed
  • CCW limit signal (CCWLM). Normally closed
  • Alarm signal (ALM)
  • Encoder Phase -Z signal (ZORG)
  • Detection-end signal (DEND)
Protection Features
  • Low/High Power Mode

Following safety features of the Robot Controller work as protection features because these are valid for the PG board via the software.

  • Emergency Stop Input
  • Safeguard Input
  • Enable SW Input
Board Address Set by DIP switches on the board.
I/F Connector on the Board DX10A-100S (Hirose Electric Co.,Ltd.)
Power Supply

5 V ±5 % 1.0 A (max.)

24 V ±2 V 200 mA (max.) (from the external power source)
