Elements You Need
Before you start, you must get all the necessary system elements. These include:
1a. DMC-1710/1810, 1720/1820, 1730/1830, or DMC-1740/1840 Motion Controller, (1)
100-pin cable, and (1) ICM-1900 interconnect module.
or
1b. DMC-1750/1850, 1760/1860, 1770/1870 or DMC-1780/1880, (2) 100-pin cables and (2)
ICM-1900s. CB 50-100 connector board and included two 50-pin ribbon cables which
converts the two 50-pin ribbon cables into a single 100-pin connector.
or
1c. DMC-1718, 1728, 1738, 1748, (1) 100-pin cables and (1) ICM-1900s. Connection to the
extended I/O can be made through the IOM-1964 opto-isolation module. Using the IOM-
1964 requires (1) IOM-1964, (1) CB-50-100 and (1) 100 pin cable.
2. Servo motors with Optical Encoder (one per axis) or step motors.
3. Power Amplifiers.
4. Power Supply for Amplifiers.
5. PC (Personal Computer - ISA bus or PCI bus).
6. Galil SmartTerm (from CD ROM or download at www.galilmc.com)
7. WSDK is optional but recommended for first time users.
The motors may be servo (brush type or brushless) or steppers. The amplifiers should be suitable for the motor and
may be linear or pulse-width-modulated. An amplifier may have current feedback, voltage feedback or velocity
feedback
