Description
The NI PCI-7390 is a 4 Axis Position Command Motion Controller equipped with isolation, designed specifically for motion control hardware and software applications. This controller, identified by part numbers 779034-01 and 192689B-01L, falls under the category of Motion Control HW & SW. It is a stepper motion controller that operates on a P-Command (position command) type, supporting step command input, making it highly versatile for various motion control tasks.
The PCI-7390 model can support up to four coordinated or independent axes, ensuring flexibility in managing multiple motion tasks concurrently. Connectivity options include a SCSI type 100-pin I/O connector and an RTSI connector, offering a range of connectivity possibilities for different system configurations. Additionally, it features 8 non-dedicated user inputs and outputs, alongside dedicated motion I/O for each axis, providing ample interfacing capabilities for external devices and sensors.
With a trajectory update rate ranging from 62.5 to 500 µs/Sample, the PCI-7390 allows for precise and timely motion control adjustments. Its velocity range spans from 1 to 4,000,000 steps per second, with a maximum step frequency of 4 MHz, ensuring high-speed operation and responsiveness. This controller requires a +24 V external power supply for its optical isolation circuitry, enhancing the system’s reliability and protection against electrical noise and interference.
The software compatibility of the PCI-7390 includes NI-Motion driver software, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and ANSI C, offering a broad spectrum of programming environments to cater to different development needs and preferences. This wide range of software compatibility ensures that users can easily integrate the controller into existing systems or develop new applications with familiar tools.
