LS-182 is a single-axis motion controller with integrated servo amplifier designed for applications using brushless (AC) or brush-commutated (DC) motors up to 1.5 HP. No jumpers or setup is required to switch between both types of motors. Trapezoidal brushless motor commutation is performed automatically if hall sensors are connected to the unit. LS-182 can work in NETWORK or STEP/DIRECTION mode. Up to 31 intelligent servo drives can be controlled over a multi-drop full duplex RS-485 network in a distributed motion control environment. Standard RJ-45 connectors and commercially available cables are used for daisy chaining of the modules. LS-182 is equipped with various safety features such as short circuit protection for the motor and controller, over travel limit switch inputs, emergency stop input, over and under voltage shutdown. The maximum motor output current and overload time can be set.
