Product Description

The NI 9514 is a C Series motor drive interface module for the CompactRIO platform. It’s specifically designed to provide high-performance, single-axis servo motion control. Rather than being a motor driver itself, the NI 9514 acts as an interface between a CompactRIO controller and a third-party servo drive. It contains a dedicated processor that runs a spline interpolation engine and PID control loop to ensure precise and smooth motion.

Product Specifications

• Axis Count: 1-axis servo control.
• Modes of Operation: Can be configured for position control (position loop) or torque control (torque loop).
• Control Loop Rate: Up to 20 kHz for the position loop.
• Servo Command Output: A 16-bit, ±10 V analog output signal for the servo drive.
• Feedback: Incremental encoder input for position feedback.
• Digital I/O: A full set of motion I/O, including inputs for a home switch, limit switches, and other 0 to 30 V digital lines.
• Connectors:
  • 15-pin D-SUB for the drive interface.
  • 20-pin MDR for the feedback connector.

Product Advantages

• High-Performance Motion Control: The NI 9514’s onboard processor and advanced control algorithms provide precise, smooth motion that is critical for applications that require high accuracy and repeatability.
• Flexibility and Customization: By connecting to a third-party servo drive, you can use the NI 9514 to control a wide range of motors with different power requirements, unlike a fixed motor driver.
• CompactRIO Integration: As a C Series module, it integrates seamlessly with the CompactRIO platform, allowing you to build a complete, synchronized control and measurement system.
• Simplified Programming: The module is designed to be configured and programmed using NI software, such as LabVIEW, which provides a user-friendly environment for developing complex motion control applications.

Product Applications

The NI 9514 is an excellent choice for a variety of precise motion control applications.

• Robotics: Used to control the individual axes of robotic arms or other mechatronic systems that require accurate and repeatable movements.
• Industrial Automation: Ideal for controlling a single-axis stage or actuator in manufacturing and assembly lines, where precise positioning is essential.
• Scientific Instruments: Can be used to control the movement of stages in microscopes, telescopes, or other scientific equipment for data acquisition or imaging.
• Test and Measurement: Integrated into automated test systems to provide precise motion for test fixtures or to simulate movement for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) applications.

Precautions

To ensure safe and reliable operation of the NI 9514, keep the following in mind:

• Hazardous Locations: The module is certified for use in certain hazardous locations, but specific guidelines must be followed. It must be installed in an NI chassis that is also evaluated for a hazardous location.
• Proper Connections: Always ensure that the 15-pin D-SUB and 20-pin MDR connectors are securely fastened. Use the recommended cables and terminal blocks for connecting to the servo drive and encoder.
• ESD Precautions: The module contains sensitive electronic components. Always handle it in a static-safe environment and follow proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) prevention measures.
• Voltage Limits: Do not exceed the maximum rated voltage for the power connection and digital inputs to avoid damage to the module.
