2. Features
IEEE 1284 Standard compatible.
Includes the circuitry
recommended by the IEEE 1284
Level 1 standards for bidirectional
parallel communications between
personal computers and
peripherals.
DB25 connector to connect the
stepper motor driver board. This
connectors uses only pins 2-9.
Microcontroller based SCHP.
This board comes with a
microcontroller that allows the
implementation of a complex
algorithm for sampling and
analyzing the SCHP signal.
AC plugs for router and vacuum
or coolant pump.
Speed Control Signal Can Be
PWM or 0-25HZ Pulse Stream.
Speed Control can go from 30 to 100% of
the router’s rated speed.
Works with 110 or 220VAC at 60
or 50 HZ.
For 2.5HP or 1800 Watt Routers.
Buffered inputs and outputs.
Outputs are buffered through the
use of high speed and high
current buffers allowing the card
to output the signals without using
the power from the parallel port. It
can take the +3.3 or +5vdc signal
from the parallel port and deliver
solid +5vdc at 24 milliamps.
•Connector for Limit and Home
Switches. A C16 –Index & Home
Board or a custom cable with
switches or sensors can be
connected.
Works directly with popular
CNC hardware and software.
Such as Geckodrive G540,
Xylotex, HobbyCNC, Rockcliff, or
Rutex, and parallel port control
software, such as mach2, Linux
EMC, TurboCNC, CNCPlayer,
CNCZeus and others. (Not all
tested).
All TTL 5VDC signals. Interface
directly with parallel port interface
products and other CNC4PC
cards. 5VDC (TTL) cards are very
common among automation
devices.
