Original Press Release:



Resolver Interface for Networked PLCs



Terryville, CT – Advanced Micro Controls Inc. (AMCI), announces the addition of their ANA2 Resolver Interface Module to the AnyNET I/O family of PLC-based specialty I/O products.  AMCI’s AnyNET Resolver Interface integrates a network connection and expansion capabilities to provide a modern, versatile resolver feedback solution for any PLC-based system.  The ANA2 expands up to six 2-channel modules, allowing users to interface up to 12 resolver sensors using a single network connection. The interface programs through the host controller’s (PLC) software, and is compatible with most resolver transducers on the market. 



ANA2 AnyNET I/O Resolver Interface Features:

• Direct interface to most resolver transducers

• Built-in network interface

• Fully programmable Reference Voltage, Frequency, & Transformation ratio

• 16-bit resolution (up to 65,536 counts)

• Supports up to 12 resolver sensors on a single network connection

• Each ANA2 unit can connect to two single resolver transducers or to one dual resolver transducer

• Provides absolute position and velocity data for resolvers

• Position scaling that simplifies sensor data

• Easy programming without additional software

• DIN rail mounting



Overview

The AnyNET I/O ANA2 is a full featured 2-channel Resolver interface that communicates with the host controller (PLC or PAC) over the network.  The interface satisfies a wide range of applications because of its flexible design. It easily mounts on a standard DIN rail, simplifying installation and lowering costs.



The ANA2 is compatible with any PLC that supports the product's available networks since it’s programmed using the input/output registers within the host controller.  No additional software is required to use the Resolver interface with the PLC/PAC.  Users have the option of configuring & testing the ANA2 using AMCI's convenient PC-based Net Configurator software (downloaded at no charge).  



Modular Design

AnyNET I/O easily expands from 1 to 6 I/O modules by stacking additional units onto the “gateway”, and only requires a single network connection for all communication.  This solution enables the support of up to 12 resolver sensors over a single network connection, which reduces physical wiring and streamlines data traffic over the network.



AMCI’s AnyNET I/O family now includes: ANA2 Resolver Interface, ANG1 Stepper Controller/Drive, ANE2 SSI Interface, & LVDT/RVDT Signal Conditioner. For more information on AMCI’s AnyNET I/O family, visit our website>> www.amci.com/anynet
