# 1 Introduction

ADLINK’s PCIe-833x Series is a fully in-house developed ARM-based EtherCAT motion controller, supporting up to 64 synchronized axes and over 10,000 points simultaneously. The PCIe-833x Series features dedicated isolated emergency stop input (EMG), and configurable isolated high-speed digital input as not only generic sensor input but also pulse input with up to 1MHz input frequency. Maximum jitter performance is provided in the minimal cycle of 250µs to improve motion and I/O synchronous control in vertical automation applications such as semiconductor, electrical manufacturing systems, and others.

The PCIe-833x Series provides an out-of-shell applicationready function library (APS Function Library) to support multidimensional, highly synchronized, time-deterministic event triggering motion & I/O control. The broad AVL of EtherCAT 3rd party slaves enhances user design with ADLINK APS function library with flexible implementation in preferred 3rd party slaves. ADLINK's MotionCreatorPro 2™ motion control utility is fully supported in Microsoft® Windows™ environments, allowing users to complete motion, EtherCAT, and I/O configuration and function evaluation.

The PCIe-833x Series, as shown, uses one digital signal processor (ARM) from Xilinx SoC as its main computing unit and integrates high speed large volume Field Programmable Gate

Array (FPGA) to provide high speed pulsar input, emergency stop input (EMG) as well as 2/4 digital input and digital output.a

# MotionCreatorPro 2™

Graphical motion control interface enables Windows-based motion control software development for EtherCAT configuration, motion control, and I/O status monitoring. Allows completioon of hardware installation and wiring in real-time signal feedback as well as step-by-step single-axis manipulation, saving development time and cost.

# Windows Programming Libraries

A Windows coding environment supporting Microsoft C#, Microsoft .NET framework based VB.NET, VC, NET and Visual Studio C++ 6.0. Sample programs are provided.

# EtherCAT Topology

EtherCAT supports virtually all conncetivity topologies, inculding line, tree, star, and daisy-chain, making pure bus or line topology with hundreds of nodes possible, with none of the limitations that normally arise from cascading switches or hubs.

In system connection, the combination of lines with branches or drop lines is beneficial, since the ports necessary to create branches are directly integrated in multiple I/O modules, requiring no additional switches or active infrastructure components.

Additional flexibility is enabled for supported cable types. Inexpensive industrial Ethernet cable can be used between two nodes up to 100m apart in 100BASE-TX mode. The Power over EtherCAT option (compatible with IEEE 802.3af) enables connection of devices such as sensors with a single line. Fiber optics (such as 100BASE-FX) can also be used, for example for a node distance exceeding 100 m.

Up to 65,535 devices can be connected to EtherCAT, making network expansion is virtually unlimited, while normal Ethernet arbitrary changes between physical layers are allowed.

![The image shows a graphic icon of a document page with a folded upper-left corner. Horizontal lines run across the page to simulate text. A large red checkmark is superimposed over the document.](.pcie-833x-50-11179-1010-11/703f0af43c3d9636a253eb6743f0aeb6360e6fab309c94040c6e09345776e911.jpg)
NOTE:

The terminal board is an optional accessory and is not included in the PCIe-833x Series package.

If any of these items are missing or damaged, contact the dealer. Save the shipping materials and carton to ship or store the product in the future.

# 2.2 PCIe-833x Series Hardware Installation

# Hardware Configuration

The PCIe-833x Series employs PCI Express Gen 2, the x1 Bus System BIOS can autoconfigure memory and IRQ channel. The terminal board DIN-37D provides connection to various sensors, actuators, and pulsar devices through the extension cable.

# PCIe Slot Selection

The PCIe-833x Series can be installed in any PCIe slot.

# Installation Procedures

1. Please read this manual carefully and set up the signal I/ O in the proper mode.
2. Turn off power to the computer and all relevant terminal boards, and install the PCIe-833x Series in any available PCIe x1/x4/x8 slot. The slot is normally black. Ensure

that proper ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection measures are in place.

3. Connect the DIN-37D terminal board to the PCIe-833x Series (if applicable) with DSUB 37p cable.
4. Connect the EtherCAT type servo drive and I/O with Ethernet cables (CAT5e is recommended).
5. Set up the servo or stepper drive with physical limit switch, zero-positioning, and any essential drive signals.
6. Turn on system power including computer power, relevant terminal board power, and 24VDC power.
7. Configure EtherCAT communication parameters via MotionCreatorPro 2™ and 3rd party utility as needed.
8. Verify all I/O signals and servo operations via MotionCreatorPro 2™.

![The image displays a standard warning symbol consisting of a red triangle with a white exclamation point in its center. Directly below the triangle, the text 'WARNING:' is printed in black capital letters.](.pcie-833x-50-11179-1010-11/858a175939494be0506c5725f4b15a5887fe1287aa9274b687bf3492a2041a2c.jpg)

Please ground the shielding end of the power terminal to reduce risk of electric shock and ensure product operation of electric appliances.
 Please disconnect the motor drive from its load before using the card for the first time. Do not connect the motor drive to any mechanical devices before completion of the installation and fine tuning of the control system. Connect the system only after the board is adjusted and the drive parameters can control the motor.

# Troubleshooting:

If the computer fails to power up normally or the motion control system operates abnormally after system installation, follow the steps listed for troubleshooting. If the problem persists, please contact your dealer for technical services.

<table><tr><td>Problem</td><td>Possible Solve</td></tr><tr><td>The card does not appear in Windows Device Manager after its driver has been installed</td><td>Turn off the computer and ensure the card is properly mounted in the PCIe slot; ensure the driver is properly installed in Windows Control Panel&#x27;s Add/remove programs</td></tr><tr><td>MotionCreatorPro 2TM will not launch after driver installation.</td><td>Ensure .NET framework v3.5 or later has been installed.</td></tr><tr><td>The No Signal indicator in MotionCreatorPro 2TM appears after the motor is connected and the motor will not function</td><td>Ensure 24VDC power is provided, Ethernet cable connection is in place among EtherCAT devices, and that physical servo I/O signals are connected properly</td></tr><tr><td>EtherCAT slaves (incl. servo/ stepper drive or I/O) in MotionCreatorPro 2TM will not connect</td><td>Ensure all Ethernet cables connect all EtherCAT slave devices properly and every slave device is turned on for connection. The CAT5e cable is recommended for best impedance matching.</td></tr><tr><td>When using the MotionCreatorPro2TM all the control indicators of the drive light correctly but the drive warns</td><td>Ensure correctness of the axis parameter setup, alarm logic (ALM), and the EMG loop configuration</td></tr><tr><td>Value of output command differs from the encoder feedback value.</td><td>Ensure feedback signal (CW/CCW, 1xAB, 2xAB, 4xAB) settings comply with that of the drive</td></tr><tr><td>During motion control, the motor only moves in one direction rather than two</td><td>Ensure signal patterns (CW/CCW, OUT/ DIR) comply with that of the motor drive</td></tr></table>
