4.   Other actuators such as hydraulics - For more information, contact Galil. 
The user can configure each axis for any combination of motor types, providing maximum flexibility. 
Standard Servo Motor with +/- 10 Volt Command Signal 
The DMC-13X8 achieves superior precision through use of a 16-bit motor command output DAC and 
a sophisticated PID filter that features velocity and acceleration feedforward, an extra pole and notch 
filter, and integration limits. 
The controller is configured by the factory for standard servo motor operation.  In this configuration, 
the controller provides an analog signal (+/- 10Volt) to connect to a servo amplifier.  This connection 
is described in Chapter 2. 
Brushless Servo Motor with Sinusoidal Commutation 
The DMC-13X8 can provide sinusoidal commutation for brushless motors (BLM).  In this 
configuration, the controller generates two sinusoidal signals for connection with amplifiers 
specifically designed for this purpose.   
Note: The task of generating sinusoidal commutation may also be accomplished in the brushless motor 
amplifier.  If the amplifier generates the sinusoidal commutation signals, only a single command signal 
is required and the controller should be configured for a standard servo motor (described above). 
Sinusoidal commutation in the controller can be used with linear and rotary BLMs.  However, the 
motor velocity should be limited such that a magnetic cycle lasts at least 6 milliseconds*.  For faster 
motors, please contact the factory. 
To simplify the wiring, the controller provides a one-time, automatic set-up procedure.  The 
parameters determined by this procedure can then be saved in non-volatile memory to be used 
whenever the system is powered on. 
The DMC-13X8 can control BLMs equipped with or without Hall sensors.  If hall sensors are 
available, once the controller has been setup, the controller will automatically estimate the 
commutation phase upon reset.  This allows the motor to function immediately upon power up.  The 
hall effect sensors also provides a method for setting the precise commutation phase.  Chapter 2 
describes the proper connection and procedure for using sinusoidal commutation of brushless motors. 
* 6 Milliseconds per magnetic cycle assumes a servo update of 1 msec (default rate). 
Stepper Motor with Step and Direction Signals 
The DMC-13X8 can control stepper motors.  In this mode, the controller provides two signals to 
connect to the stepper motor: Step and Direction.  For stepper motor operation, the controller does not 
require an encoder and operates the stepper motor in an open loop fashion.  Chapter 2 describes the 
proper connection and procedure for using stepper motors. 
DMC-13X8 Functional Elements 
The DMC-13X8 circuitry can be divided into the following functional groups as shown in Figure 1.1 
and discussed below.
