Allen-Bradley’s 4100-234-R compact motion controller is a microprocessor-based motion controller

with 4-axis and remote I/O options, but no axle-link option.

It uses an Intel i960 microprocessor with a 16MHz processor speed and an efficient multitasking

operating system (up to 10 tasks at a time) that allows up to 2.000 user-valued processes to be

stored as 16-bit floating-point numbers in write-protected battery-supported volatile memory.

It has 10 years of battery life and data retention. The 4100-234-R uses an I/O input power supply

in the input voltage range of 90 to 132 volts AC (47 to 63 Hz), 3 amps of current, 

and 5 to 40 volts DC (nominal 24 volts), with a maximum current of 3 amps and coupling of 3 amps.

1/4 x 11/4 ratio slow fuse. Its remote I/O option allows smooth and easy communication

with the device via a remote I/O adapter.

The 4100-234-R also allows direct connection to a programmable logic controller (PLC) using

modules and discrete transmissions. It has four isolated configurable analog outputs with

a control resolution of 6 bits, 305 µV, an output range of ±10 V DC or ±150 mA,

and a maximum offset voltage output of ±80 mV at 220Ω voltage resistance.

The 4100-234-R, when combined with the flex I/O module, provides wider discrete I/O input and output capabilities.

The 4100-234-R can connect up to eight flex I/O modules, providing a total of 128 discrete I/O points.

These discrete modules provide up to 20 dedicated optical isolated discrete inputs and

8 optical isolated open relay discrete outputs for the 4100-234-R.

The 4100-234-R uses GML for programming and RS-232C for file transfer.

Understanding Serial Interfaces

The Ultra5000 contains two identical serial port connectors (Main Serial Port

CN3A and Auxiliary Serial Port CN3B) that implement the standard NRZ

asynchronous serial format, and support RS-232. RS-422. and RS-485

communication standards.

Standard baud rates include 1.200. 2.400. 4.800. 9.600. 19.200. and 38.400

baud. Data lengths of 7 and 8 bits are supported.

The connector pinout dedicates separate pins for the RS-232 and RS-422/

RS-485 signals, so that the communication standard can be changed by just

using a different cable. Refer to Figure 2.7 for the serial interface hardware

configuration.

Routing High and Low Voltage Cables

Be aware that when you connect and route power and signal wiring on a

machine or system, radiated noise from nearby relays (relay coils should have

surge suppressors), transformers, and other electronic drives can be induced

into motor or encoder feedback, communications, or other sensitive, low

voltage signals. This can cause system faults and communication problems. To

minimize the levels of radiated noise, route machine power and signal lines

separately.

Auxiliary Encoder Interface

All encoder input signals (CN1B) are filtered using analog and digital filtering,

including illegal state change detection.

The input circuitry includes pull-up and pull-down resistors for compatibility

with single-ended and open collector signals, in addition to differential signals.

A single channel schematic of the auxiliary encoder interface is shown in the

figure below.

Encoder Interface

The Ultra5000 main encoder feedback connector is CN2. The motor encoder

interface circuitry features include:

• 2.5 MHz maximum line frequency

• RS-485 serial channel for communicating with intelligent encoders

• Hall input for start-up commutation only

• Interpolation of sine/cosine encoders

All encoder signals are filtered using analog and digital filtering. The inputs

also include illegal state change detection. Refer to Figure 2.5 for a schematic

of the motor encoder inputs.

Hardware latches can be used for latching the encoder position based on an

index input or a digital input transition.

Auxiliary Encoder Interface

All encoder input signals (CN1B) are filtered using analog and digital filtering,

including illegal state change detection.

The input circuitry includes pull-up and pull-down resistors for compatibility

with single-ended and open collector signals, in addition to differential signals.

System Mounting Requirements

There are several things that you need to take into account when preparing to

mount the Ultra5000:

• The Ultra5000 must be enclosed in a grounded conductive enclosure

offering protection as defined in standard EN 60529 (IEC 529) to IP55

such that they are not accessible to an operator or unskilled person. A

NEMA 4X enclosure exceeds these requirements providing protection to IP66.

• The ambient temperature of the location in which you will install the

Ultra5000 must not exceed 55° C (131° F).

• You must install the panel on a flat, rigid, vertical surface that won’t be

subjected to shock, vibration, moisture, oil mist, dust, or corrosive vapors.

• You need to maintain minimum clearances (refer to Figure 1.1) for proper

airflow, easy module access, and proper cable bend radius.

Refer to Appendix A for mounting dimensions, power dissipation, and

environmental specifications for the Ultra5000.

IMPORTANT If the cabinet is ventilated, use filtered or conditioned air to

prevent the accumulation of dust and dirt on electronic

components. The air should be free of oil, corrosives, or

electrically conductive contaminates.

Remove all packing material, wedges, and braces from within and around the

components. After unpacking, check the item(s) nameplate catalog number

against the purchase order.

Mounting Your Ultra5000

Drive

The procedures in this section assume you have prepared your panel and

understand how to bond your system. For installation instructions regarding

other equipment and accessories, refer to the instructions that came with each

of the accessories for their specific requirements.

To mount your Ultra5000 drive:

1.Layout the positions for the Ultra5000 and accessories in the enclosure.

Mounting hole dimensions for the Ultra5000 are shown in Appendix A.

2. Attach the Ultra5000 to the cabinet, first using the upper mounting slots

of the drive and then the lower. The recommended mounting hardware is

M5 metric (1/4-20) or #10 MS bolts. Observe bonding techniques as

described in Bonding Your System.

3. Tighten all mounting fasteners.
