RTMC600-CAN Controller
RTMC600-CAN controller is made for industrial feedback control applications. It offers four PID controllers for mult-loop or multiple single loop feedback control applications, and plus many similar features offered in RTM200 series controller. The applications can be voltage control, current control, temperature control, flow control, pressure control, level control, etc.
RTMC600-CAN is a CAN interface based function-ready slave controller that accepts serial ASCII string commands as a payload in CAN protocol to perform real-time tasks in the applications of monitoring, measuring, and controls. CAN communication is supported in this controller so It is capable of networking with CAN communication. The built-in CAN to UART bridge in RTMC200-232CAN or RTMC200-USB-CAN offers a virtual UART communication to interface with this board similar to RS-485 serial communication network operation.
RTMC600-CAN controller communicates with our RTMC400-232-CAN or RTMC400-USB-CAN master controller through the CAN bus.
It is based on a high-performance 16-bit 40 MIPS DSP core processor with enhanced peripheral interface. The advanced firmware has been developed and embedded into this controller so that the customer neither needs to develop real-time embedded firmware nor needs development tools. To command this device, the user simply sends ASCII strings or Modbus protocol through CAN serial port to perform four PI controller feedback controls, to read A/D, to output D/A and PWM, to set I/O or read I/O, and to read event counters. Each A/D input can be filtered or passed through as raw data. This controller is capable of automatically recognizing ASCII protocol and Modbus protocol. For more details, click here to download user manual for RTMC600 Series Controllers (PDF).
The ASCII string commands are intuitive and simple. For example, the command @1XR2 5000 will set the control reference2 to 5000 for device address 1. @2RAU3 will read the A/D channel 3 with raw data from device address 2.
We offer three different board configurations to give you a flexibility to choose the one that fits your hardware interface. The RTMC600-CAN-A has no 0.1" pin header connectors installed; the RTMC600-CAN-B is fully populated with 0.1 " headers and terminal blocks as shown in the above picture; the RTMC600-CAN-C is specially to be used as a daughter board with all 0.1" pin header connectors for daughter board interface. All of the three different boards function the same as stated in RTMC600 series controller's User Manual
