General purpose I/O lines

• Compatible with a wide range of sensors and www.abb-drive.com motion encoders.

• High-speed differential inputs: Quadrature motion encoder support up to 5 MHz.

• Isolated current-sense inputs: 5V, 12V, 24V signaling voltages accepted, up to 50 kHz, individual galvanic isolation up to

500VAC RMS.

• Isolated contact outputs.

High-performance DMA (Direct Memory Access)

• Direct transfer into user-allocated memory and hardware boards that expose PCI addresses

• Hardware scatter-gather support

• 64-bit addressing capability

Area-scan triggering capabilities

• A trigger is used to start the acquisition when the part is in position. Hardware triggers come from the Grablink’s I/O lines.

Software triggers come from the application.

• An optional trigger delay is available to postpone the acquisition for a programmable time.

• A trigger decimation function allows to skip some of the triggers.

• Camera exposure control allows the application to control the exposure time of the camera.

• When the acquisition starts, at the appropriate timing, the Grablink board generates a signal to control an illumination device

connected to one of its output lines.
