all configuration parameters and real-time measurements
The MS332 is a powerful and versatile tool for building numerous closed-loop follower machine processes.
The MS332 creates an intelligent follower control loop by receiving event-index and/or shaft encoder sensor signals from both the lead and follower machines and outputting an analog speed command to your follower machine variable speed motor drive.
Capabilities include uni/bi-directional machine speed and mechanical phase control, event synchronization and electronic line-shaft/gearing.
Accepts quadrature incremental encoder signals and virtually all type discrete index/event sensor signals (e.g. encoder Z, prox, photo-eye, logic). Provides encoder/sensor power, making it ideal for new or existing systems. The isolated analog speed command output is configurable to 0 → ±10V bi-directional or 0 → 10V unidirectional with or without a discrete (transistor) fwd/rev direction command, making the MS332 compatible with virtually all variable speed drives (AC-vector, AC-inverter, DC or servo).
