Overview: |
|
|
The ATS-YYY-SRC series of products provide fully independent Synchro/Resolver-to-Digital and fully independent Digital-to-Synchro/Resolver channels. These are available both as a PCI bus add-on card and as a 6U VME64x module. Each channel is implemented using DDC converters. A common on-board oscillator eliminates the need for an external reference oscillator. Transformer isolation is available on-board for measurement channels while it is optional for simulation channels. The boards are available in two combinations. One combination provides 2 measurement (Synchro/Resolver-to-Digital) channels and 6 simulation (Digital-to-Synchro/Resolver) channels on one board. The second combination provides 4 measurement (Synchro/Resolver-to-Digital) channels and 4 simulation (Digital-to-Synchro/Resolver) channels on one board. The ATS-YYY-SRC S/R-D outputs can be used as Synchro/Resolver simulator to test the equipment, which has Synchro/Resolver interface in it. The ATS-YYY-SRC D/S-R interface feature is useful for angular measurement applications. |

Hardware:
The module is capable of accommodating most military voltages; e.g., 11.8, or 90 Vrms @ 400 Hz. This architecture allows for minimum board count to achieve the maximum functionality in systems that require precision positioning, control and stabilization.
Each input channel of S/R-D is independent and maybe configured as either a synchro or resolver input using on-board jumpers.
Each
output channel of D-S/R is independent and maybe configured as either a synchro or resolver output using on-board jumpers.

The ATS-YYY-SRC software includes:
· Virtual Instrument Panels
· Drivers & APIs
Virtual Instrument Panel
The ATS-YYY-SRC card comes with a "Virtual Instrument Panel" providing interactive control of Synchro/Resolver features. The control interface appears on the computer display & user manipulates these controls with a mouse/trackball or keyboard. The purpose of Virtual Instrument panel is to help the user (mostly system integrators) to quickly setup & use the card, just like a standalone instrument with physical front-end knobs, controls & display without getting into programming intricacies.
Drivers & APIs
The ATS-YYY-SRC card comes with a powerful set of library functions to access the Synchro/Resolver functionality. The drivers are designed in a modular fashion consisting of component functions & application functions. The user's test program can be developed with a few calls to the card driver, by using the set of application functions provided. Drivers and high-level API libraries for Windows 98/2000/NT are provided for the PCI card while driver support for VxWorks and LynxOS is available for the VME module. |
