PLC4X-G2 ADAPTER
The PLC4x-G2 universal expansion board allows the computer function to be adapted for CNC control. After connecting the adapter to the LPT port of the computer, it allows communication with stepper motor controllers. It is possible to control up to 6 step controllers or servo motors using STEP, DIR, or ENABLE interfaces. All signals from LPT ports are buffered. The PLC4x-G2 module can be connected to any port with the logic value "1" for voltage: 3.3-5 [V] .
The adapter is compatible with such CNC programs as MACH3, TurboCNC. It has 6, opto-isolated inputs intended for limit switches and the E-STOP button. It has been designed to support Purelogic controllers, but the innovative approach has also allowed the control of controllers from other brands.
The modern PLC4x-G2 device allows you to operate 4 axes, however, thanks to the greater number of relays, simple adaptation of 6 axes is possible.
