Introduction 
MAN-GUIIG (Ver. 1.1)
 
 
2-2 
The Advanced Guitar includes all the motion capabilities and communication options 
included in the Standard model, as well as advanced positioning capabilities: ECAM, 
Dual Loop and increased program size.
 
Both versions operate with RS-232 and CANopen communication. 
2.2 Product 
Features 
2.2.1 Current 
Control 
 Fully digital 
 Sinusoidal commutation with vector control or trapezoidal commutation 
with encoder and/or digital Hall sensors. 
 12-bit current loop resolution. 
 Automatic gain scheduling, to compensate for variations in the DC bus 
power supply. 
2.2.2 Velocity 
Control 
 Fully digital. 
 Programmable PI and FFW (feed forward) control filters. 
 Sample rate two times current loop sample time. 
 “On-the-fly” gain scheduling. 
 Automatic, manual and advanced manual tuning and determination of 
optimal gain and phase margins. 
2.2.3 Position 
Control 
 Programmable PIP control filter. 
 Programmable notch and low-pass filters. 
 Position follower mode for monitoring the motion of the slave axis 
relative to a master axis, via an auxiliary encoder input. 
 Pulse-and-direction inputs. 
 Sample time: four times that of the current loop. 
 Fast event capturing inputs. 
 PT and PVT motion modes. 
 Fast output compare (OC). 
2.2.4  Advanced Position Control 
This relates to the Advanced model only.  
 Position-based and time-based ECAM mode that supports a non-linear 
follower mode, in which the motor tracks the master motion using an 
ECAM table stored in flash memory. 
 Dual (position/velocity) loop. 
2.2.5 Communication 
Options 
Depending on the application, Guitar users can select from two communication options: 
 RS-232 serial communication. 
 CANopen for fast communication in a multi-axis distributed environment.
