APC Program Examples for Delta Tau PMAC Controllers

GeoBrick Internal Info This program lets you monitor internal amplifier data in your programs.  This includes 1.) All IGBT Temperatures, 2.)  DC Bus Voltage, 3.) ABORT Circuit Status, 4.) All Fault Codes and 5.) Amplifier Status.  This is powerful status monitoring and trouble shooting information which can be made available in your GUI as well as over the internet when using remote access.
Encoder Count Error This program is setup to use the Encoder Count Error bit available on all PMAC Controllers to identify possible encoder problems. It is an excellent way to identify encoder problems, excessive noise on encoder lines and even the complete loss of encoder signals.
Encoder Distance Trigger All PMAC Controllers have built in Position Capture & Compare registers, that are extremely fast and accurate.  Sometimes, however, you simply want to wait a known distance in motor position to do calculations, start routines or other options.  This program is an example of how simple this can be.
Stepper Motor Setup This file is designed to setup motor 7 as an Open Loop Stepper Motor.  By changing certain variables the file can set up different motors as Steppers
