National Instruments 779035-02 PXI Motion Control Module

The part number 779035-02 from National Instruments is the identifying part number for the PXI-7332 PXI Motion Control Module. This motion controller supports linear interpolation and advanced stepper generation. The 779035-02 produce motion control signals with a 12-bit resolution for accurate and precise movements of the drives being controlled. It supports a trajectory update rate range from 62.5 to 500 µs/sample allowing it to quickly respond to changes and generate motion accordingly. The module also features multi-axis synchronization with less than one update sample, ensuring coordinated motion across multiple axes.

The 779035-02 PXI Motion Control Module works with the PXI trigger bus and RTSI bus, allowing for synchronized operations with other PXI modules and systems. This module requires a computer with an available PCI or PXI slot and can control both NI and third-party drives and motors. The module is compatible with the NI-Motion driver software, supporting programming environments, including Microsoft Visual Basic, LabVIEW, and Microsoft Visual C++. 

The 779035-02 PXI Motion Control Module features four 8-bit TTL ports capable of sourcing or sinking 24 mA, for interfacing with other devices and systems. It also includes two open-loop PWM outputs for additional control capabilities. The motion controller is equipped with a 68-pin female high-density VHDCI type connector for motion I/O, ensuring reliable and secure connections with external devices and systems.

The module operates at +5 Volts DC (± 5%) and requires 1 Amperes of power, consuming a maximum of 5.7 Watts. It includes safety features such as a watchdog timer function, which resets the board to its initial startup state in case of a fault, and a shutdown input that can be configured to halt all axis and common outputs. The 779035-02 PXI Motion Control Module should be operated in an environment with a temperature of less than 55 degrees Celsius and humidity under 85 %. The module does not feature an Ingress protection rating and hence should be kept away from harsh industrial environments where dust and moisture may affect the overall performance of the device and shortening the module's life.
