Overview
The Multiple Controller NCD is suited for the operation of up to 8 devices with multiple axis of motion. Those devices can be any combinations of antenna masts, turntables, cable guide rails or any other positioning equipment.
This controller NCD permits the operation in manual, semi-automatic and remote control mode via IEEE 488.2 (GPIB bus), or optionally other interfaces, of multiple devices simultaneously.
The multiple control device NCD works with EMC software from Rohde & Schwarz, Teseq, NEXIO, Toyo, TDK, DARE!! etc. The IEEE 488 (GPIB) is available as a standard interface device. Other interfaces available on request.
User-friendly, time-saving function keys
The function keys F1 to F10 allows the implementation of individual, customer- specific sequence programs for user-friendly, times-saving handling and operation. The individual programs can be stored and accessed by one function key.
Error analysis based on error codes
Diagnosis via USB interface possible
Optional analysis via internet and Ethernet interface possible
USB interface
Updates easily implemented by USB stick
Possibility to plug in a computer mouse and keyboard
Easy operation with touch panel
Fast and reliable operability based on touch panel technology
Layout of touch screen display can easily be adjusted according to customers’ request
Position keys
With the position keys Up/DOWN, CW/CCW and VER/HOR the positioners can easily
be moved in manual mode.
Real-time capable
Each program cycle will finished in the default time frame be no matter how many devices are controlled at the same time. Due to this feature no overflow of commands can happen when using fast remote computers.
Handheld control unit
Easy implementation of standard or customer-specific handheld control units possible
Precise Display Accuracy
The display resolution is highly precise with position readout increments of 1 mm respectively 0.1 degree.
Higher resolutions possible upon request.
