Using the Analog Inputs A/D (X7) 
The Geo PMAC Drive can be ordered with two analog-to-digital converters (Option 3/4/5).  These A/D 
converters are 16-bit devices that are ready to be used without any software setup.  Delta Tau uses the 
Burr Brown ADS8343 for this circuit. 
The analog signals for analog input #1 are wired in to pins 5 (ADC1+) and 9 (ADC1-), and for analog 
input #2 into pins 4 (ADC2+) and 8 (ADC2-).  
When selected for bipolar mode, differential inputs allow the user to apply input voltages to ±10 volts 
(20V p-p).  When selected for unipolar mode, the user can apply input voltages from 0V to +10V (the 
negative input ADCn- must be grounded).  
To read the A/D data from the Geo PMAC device, create the M-variable definitions.   
;The data received is an unsigned 16-bit number scaled from 0V to +10V (0cts to 32767cts).

;The data received is a signed 16-bit number scaled from –10V to +10V (-32767cts to 32767cts).

Using the Analog Output (X7) 
When the Geo PMAC drive is ordered with either Option 3, 4, or 5, one differential 12-bit filtered PWM 
analog output (analog output intended for use with loads > 5K impedance) is installed to the unit.

Channel #3, Output M302->Y:$C012,8,16,s  
• 
I369=6527 ; DAC limit 10Vdc 
For example, if M302=653, the output should be approximately 1Vdc. 
X8:  S. Encoder 1  
The Secondary Encoder channel allows an external encoder to be fed back on the controller.  A 5V supply 
is available for encoder power at pin 4.  The three differential signal channels are brought into remaining 
pins as indicated.  The encoder loop feedback address is $C010 
For example, to enter it in the ECT, write to the last empty entry (for this example entry 3):
