Advanced Motion Control Drives - Need Help

[ktmrider]

I am trying to use some Advanced Motion Control B25A20AC drives with a +/- 10 V input signal on a 3 axis mill. I am looking for advise on which mode to operate them in as well any hook up tips. Anybody an AMC user?

I have been using them for many years with Galil and Acroloop motion cards, using the ±10vdc control and I use them in Torque or current mode.
Hook up depends on what your controller is, they have enable input and alarm out, if you want to use this feature.
They recommend Pot1 fully CCW and Pot3 fully CW in Torque mode.
They have a Technical Engineering section on their site, it is a bit harder to find since they remodeled the site.

My drives only have one pot.

I would guess that you bought these used?
The only ones I have come across with one or no pot's have been pre set up for OEM's by AMC.
If this is the case, you may have to try them out and see how they react?
