Actuonix, Linear Actuator Control Board, Analogue, Digital Control, 5 → 24 V dc, 4 A, Panel Mount

A 6 vdc or 12 vdc power supply is required for operation (not included). Linear Actuator Control Board. The LAC board from Actuonix is a standalone closed loop control board specially designed for the P series actuators. By using this LAC board with Actuonix actuators you can greatly simplify motor control designs, saving cost and time. Actuonix motor control IC uses a software-based algorithm which optimises position and speed control. The linear actuator board is then compatible with a wide range of actuators, using only the default settings. Full customisation is possible due to Actuonix Advanced Configuration Program. The LAC can be operated as an interface board or a standalone controller with the addition of an external potentiometer and power supply. Control Modes. 0 V to 3.3 V Interface Mode. This mode allows an actuator to be controlled with just a battery, and a potentiometer to signal the desired position to the actuator. RC Servo Interface Mode. A standard hobby-type remote-control digital servo interface, compatible with servos and receivers from other manufacturers. 4 mA to 20 mA Interface Mode. This mode is compatible with PLC devices typically used in industrial control applications. PWM Mode. This mode allows control of the actuator using a single digital output pin from an external micro controller. USB Mode. This mode allows control of the actuator via the computer. Features and Benefits. Several control modes available Compatible with P series actuators Can be operated as an interface board or standalone controller. Application Information. The LAC works with the PQ12-P, L12-P, L16-P and P16-P series actuators. It can also be able to drive other larger actuators that have position feedback.
