Highlights

Motion profiles include S-curve, trapezoidal (with smoothing factor), velocity contouring, and electronic gearing, linear & circular interpolation for 4 axes. In addition they also support external profile mode which allows the user to download complex motion profiles directly in to the controllers memory relieving the host from extensive calculation tasks.

Other new features are the BI-Quad filter system (low-pass, high-pass, bandpass, notch and custom filter to stabilize even systems which were hard to configure before), or the new smoothing factor which allows S-curve similar driving but now with the ability to change all parameters “On-the-Fly”. The POSYS® 4000 accepts input parameters such as position, velocity, and acceleration from the host and generates a corresponding trajectory within 10 µs.

The POSYS® 4000 in addition provides an on-board DOS-like RTOS with 8 MB SDRAM and 8 MB Flash RAM with integrated Web, FTP and Telnet server for communication purposes via the x3 RS232/RS485 serial, x1 Ethernet, x1 USB1.1 or x2 CAN 2.0b interface which enhances this board for a variety of connection solutions. This allows maintenance, executing, monitoring, updating and diagnostics to be performed easily via network, field bus, Internet or Intranet. The multitasking capability allows up to 12 tasks to be executed simultaneously. Together with the CoDeSys IEC 61131-3 Runtime library integrated, this board can be used for almost any kind of motion control application.

The POSYS® 4000 has a special feature allowing to define a time constant factor after that the uncommitted inputs and limit switch signals can each be set to 16 different time constants. These time constants delay the signal proceeding after which a processed signal is recognized and accepted. In addition the signals are filtered which improves significantly signal quality and increases the all-over system integrity. The time delay is selectable from 1µs up to 32 ms.

The POSYS® 4000 is a standalone motion controller offering a wide range of possibilities. The controller can be setup to support brushed, brushless (with internal commutation) servo motors, microstepping and stepper motors.

The usage of one controller type throughout the system, but still keeping it open for various motor types, depending on your customer's demands, enhances this controller to be your first choice. Software written for this controller does not need to be re-written again. Time-to-market design is done once. Equip your machine with steppers or servos or combine them to any configuration you desire.

Due to its possibilities there are practically no limitations to where this controller can be used. Robotics, semi-conductor, medical and harsh industrial environments - wherever you need precise control of your motors the POSYS® 4000 is ready.
