ACC-E1: Product OverviewThe DELTA TAU ACC-E1 is a communication interface accessory board designed for the Turbo PMAC2 motion controller platform, providing Ethernet connectivity for network integration and remote access. This board serves as a communication bridge between the Turbo PMAC2 motion controller and host computer systems, enabling high-speed data transfer and remote configuration capabilities. The module operates as an accessory to the main Turbo PMAC2 CPU, expanding the controller’s communication options beyond the standard serial interface to include modern Ethernet networking.Installed as an accessory to the main Turbo PMAC2 CPU board, this interface provides 10/100Base-T Ethernet connectivity using standard TCP/IP protocols. The board enables high-speed communication between the motion controller and host computers for program upload/download, real-time data monitoring, and remote configuration. The Ethernet implementation supports both static and dynamic IP addressing, allowing flexible integration into various network environments. The interface maintains a secondary RS-232 serial port for legacy connectivity or backup communication channels.As part of the Turbo PMAC2 product family, this accessory board integrates seamlessly with the platform’s motion control capabilities, supporting the same communication protocols and programming interfaces as the built-in communication ports. The Ethernet connectivity enables faster program transfers and real-time data collection compared to traditional serial communications, improving development efficiency and system monitoring capabilities. The network connectivity also facilitates integration with higher-level systems such as HMIs, SCADA systems, and factory networks.

DELTA TAU ACC-E1
Core Features & Customer ValueHigh-Speed Ethernet Communication: The 10/100Base-T Ethernet interface provides significantly faster data transfer rates compared to traditional serial communications, reducing program download times and enabling more extensive real-time data collection. This is particularly valuable during system development and debugging when frequent program updates and data monitoring are required. The higher bandwidth also supports more sophisticated HMI interfaces and data logging applications.Network Integration Capability: The TCP/IP protocol stack enables seamless integration with factory networks and higher-level systems. This allows the motion controller to communicate with multiple host systems simultaneously, share data with SCADA systems, and be monitored remotely over the network. The standard Ethernet implementation ensures compatibility with existing network infrastructure and security systems.Dual Communication Channels: The combination of Ethernet and RS-232 interfaces provides communication redundancy and flexibility. The Ethernet port serves as the primary high-speed communication channel, while the serial port can be used for backup communication, connection to legacy devices, or as a console port for low-level configuration. This dual-channel approach ensures system accessibility even if network issues occur.Typical ApplicationsIn automated manufacturing systems, the interface enables integration with factory networks for centralized monitoring and control. Production data, including cycle times, error counts, and maintenance information, can be collected and analyzed by higher-level systems for production optimization and predictive maintenance.For machine development and debugging, the Ethernet connection provides fast program download capabilities and real-time data monitoring during system commissioning. Engineers can quickly update control programs and monitor servo performance parameters without physical access to the controller, improving development efficiency.In distributed control systems, the network connectivity allows multiple motion controllers to communicate and coordinate their actions. This is particularly useful in large machines where different sections need to synchronize their movements or share operational data.
