Advantech PCI-1245/1265 Series DSP-based SoftMotion PCI Controller User Manual
The Advantech PCI-1245/1265 Series is a DSP-based SoftMotion PCI bus controller card designed for various motor automation and machine automation applications. It features a high-performance DSP with SoftMotion algorithms to achieve precise motion trajectory and time control, supporting synchronous applications such as gantry control, electronic gears, and electronic cams. The series supports linear, curve, and spiral curve interpolation, as well as tangent-following motion to ensure the Z-axis is tangent to the X-Y curve.
The manual covers the overview, installation guide, signal connections, general motion API, and programming guide. It details the hardware setup, including DIP switches and jumpers, and explains the various I/O interfaces such as encoder inputs, limit switches, and digital/analog inputs and outputs. The programming section introduces the Common Motion API architecture, providing examples for creating applications in Visual C++ and Visual Basic, along with function and property lists. This manual is written in Chinese.
