GENERAL INFORMATION
- The PulsePro can benefit the industrial user in many
different ways, and can quickly make up its purchase price by
reducing personnel lost time, and improving spare parts availability.
Common general usages are:
- Read and test encoders and other equipment during
repair (usually without removal).
- Read and test encoders and other equipment periodically
as part of a preventive maintenance program.
- Test and verify the operation of spare parts stocked
for maintenance or other engineering purposes.
- Read and/or simulate encoder or other devices
during equipment design, debugging or other engineering efforts.
- Permanently connect to critical equipment to monitor
operation and log data for production reporting, preventive maintenance,
or engineering evaluation.
- The PulsePro is a complete solution for testing and
debugging motion control, measurement, or other systems using
pulse signals. The unit offers users the ability to
- Easily perform tests on pulse based devices
such as incremental encoders.
- Easily read and display counts, count rates,
and states of input pulse lines from many devices
(including encoders).
- Easily simulate pulse output devices while
displaying counts, count rates, and states of output lines.
The ability to both read and simulate pulse signals
provides a full debugging capability by isolating which components
of a system are causing the problem. The simulation function expedites
software and hardware debugging when assembling new systems. The
PulsePro is compatible with A/B quadrature, A count B direction,
and A count up B count cown, pulse formats.
The PulsePro has many applications beyond encoders.
The unit may be used as a portable frequency counter, event counter,
and stepper motor indexer, in addition to other engineering or maintenance uses.
