Description
The NI 9514 1 Axis Servo Drive Interface w/Encoder Feedback is a component of the C Series Motion category, designed to facilitate precision motion control in demanding applications. This device, identified by part numbers 780110-01 and 782906-01, provides a robust solution for connecting and controlling servo drives.
It is compatible with AKD analog servo drives through the use of an AKD cable and can also connect to external servo drives via a terminal block. This versatility ensures that the NI 9514 can integrate seamlessly into various motion control setups. The analog drive command output operates within a voltage range of ±10 V, with the resolution of the servo command analog output reaching up to 16 bits, offering precise control over the motion systems.
The encoder channel of the NI 9514 supports RS-422 differential inputs as well as single-ended inputs, accommodating two phases (A and B) along with an Index input. This allows for accurate feedback from the motion system to ensure precise control. The encoder power output is specified at +5 V, catering to a wide range of encoder types.
In terms of power consumption, the NI 9514 is efficient, utilizing up to 900 mW during active operation and reducing to up to 0.4 mW in sleep mode. This efficiency ensures that the device can be used in energy-conscious applications without significantly impacting the power budget.
For motion control, the NI 9514 offers two control loop modes: torque loop and position loop. The maximum control loop rate in position loop mode is an impressive 20 kHz, facilitating high-speed, precise motion control. The minimum pulse width supported is 50 µs, allowing for fine-tuned adjustments to the motion control commands.
Connectivity is provided via a 37-pin terminal block, ensuring reliable and secure connections to other components of the motion control system. The device weighs 5.5 oz, making it lightweight yet durable enough for industrial applications. It operates within a
