C4 - SAFETY CHARGE PUMP Rev.
6
• Overview.
This provides the ability to take advantage of Mach ability to send a
specific frequency through one of the pins of the parallel port when the
program is in control. CNC machinery are very dangerous, and you always
have the risk of the machine doing something different that what you
intend the machine to do if the program loses control of your system.
Mach can be programmed in a way, so when it is “in control”, it delivers
a 12.5 KHz signal through one of the ports. This card lets you use this
signal to work as an On/Off Switch for your system, enabling a powerful
safety system for your equipment. If you ever had windows crash on you,
then this card is for you. The port can also do weird things while the
system is coming up, or down. Features
•
Takes advantage of the 12.5 KHz signal from Mach. When Mach1/2
is in control it can emit a 12.5 KHz signal that can be used as an
On-Off safety switch for your system.
•
Microcontroller based system. New since revision 5 of this
board is a microcontroller that allows the implementation of more
complex algorithms for sampling and analyzing the signal.
•
You can use it to control your Parallel Port Interface Card or any
other device that can control your system. This device acts as
an On/Off switch for your system. When hooked up, you can control what
is powered or not.
•
All TTL +5VDC or +3.3VDC Signals.
