GE IC800VMA022 VersaMotion
Servo Amplifiers Motion Control SystemsVersaMotion
The VersaMotion family of servo amplifiers offers a cost effective
solution for a broad range of motion applications. These versatile
amplifiers support simple stand-alone positioning capability
using up to 8 stored motion profiles or can be connected to any
motion controller using an analog or pulse command interface. A
built-in touchpad and display provides convenient access to
configuration parameters and system information. The serial
interface supports multi-drop system configurations and Modbus
communication protocol.
Amplifier setup can be accomplished using the VersaMotion
software included with Proficy Machine Edition or using the
convenient front panel keypad.
Key Features
• Versatile analog (speed or torque) or pulse command interface
• Position/Speed/Torque modes
• Dual control modes
• Standalone single-axis position control mode for simple point to-point motion control
• Electronic gearing with user-defined ratio
• External JOG function
• Speed/Torque limit operation
• Built-in keypad/display for setup and diagnostics
• Motor settling time below 1 ms for fast response
• Low speed stability and performance: less than 0.5% error
at 1 RPM
• 10msec acceleration time from running without load
-/+ 3000 RPM
Built-in Functions
• Simple stand-alone point-to-point positioning control with
8 internal stored position settings (positions can be changed
over Modbus for greater application flexibility)
• Move to Home function
• Position Teaching capability
• Incremental encoder feedback (2500 ppr/10,000 counts/rev)
• User-definable Acceleration/Deceleration with jerk limiting
(s-curve)
• Feed step control function
• Modbus Slave serial port (RS-485/RS-422) for reading and
writing parameters from Machine Edition or updating stored
position set points from a host controller.
Machine Edition VersaMotion Set-up Features
• Configuration Parameter Editor (clear, read, write functions)
and initial configuration wizard
• Calculation tools to determine proper conversion from encoder
counts to desired user programming units
• Three channel digital oscilloscope to display and record drive
status on-line
• Alarm history and status monitor diagnostic screens
• Digital I/O set-up, monitoring and forcing. Each I/O point can
be individually set to one of the built-in functions (45 digital
input functions and 11 digital output functions)
