BLuAC5 Brushless Universal Servo Amplifier Description The BLu Series servo drives provide compact, reliable solutions for a wide range of motion applications in a variety of industries. BLu Series drives are designed to offer excellent performance coupled with hardware and software features that make them easy to integrate, use and maintain. The BLuAC5 hardware features a powerful digital signal processor (DSP) coupled to an efficient IGBT PWM amplifier. When combined with the BLuAC5 s sophisticated, yet easy to tune position loop and velocity and acceleration feed-forward, a system capable of extremely high performance results assuring success in even the most demanding of applications. All BLuAC5 drives are capable of running brushless, brush and linear type motors. A timing wizard automatically configures the encoder and commutation timing for virtually any brushed or brushless DC motor. Tuning is easy with our QuickTuner software, which features a built-in digital oscilloscope. 5A /15A 95W Max 9-VAC Input, Single or Three Phase QuickTunerTM configuration software Status Display External control options Pulse and Direction Analog Command Signal Host command via RS/5. Integral control options Si ProgrammerTM - intuitive easy to use graphical programming language. Q - comprehensive high level language with options for control of all drive features.

QuickTunerSetup Software The BLuAC5 servo drives are supplied with the QuickTuner TM software set-up utility. In this one program the user can configure all the aspects of the drive. This includes setting the current, configuring Inputs and Outputs and tuning the drive using the integrated oscilloscope with new trigger function. The drive screen allows the user to enter parameters for the drive and select the operating mode required. The Inputs/Outputs screen is used to configure the functionality of the drive. These functions may include. Brake output Alarm Output Motion Output Limit Switch inputs The oscilloscope function can be used to display the effects of varying the different gain parameters. A number of different drive parameters can be displayed including: Target Speed Actual Speed Current Position Error Supply Voltage The oscilloscope function also features a trigger function and a monitor, this displays parameter values in real time.
