Introduction Soloist HPe 10/20/30
Chapter 1: Introduction
Aerotech’s Soloist HPe 10/20/30(High Power PWM) network digital drive is a high performance amplifier.
The drive provides deterministic behavior, auto-identification, and easy software setup. The Soloist HPe
10/20/30’s high performance double precision floating point DSP controls the digital PID and current loops.
All system configuration is done using software-settable parameters, including control loop gains and
system safety functions.
The Soloist HPe 10/20/30 is offered with an optional encoder interpolation feature (-MXH), an auxiliary
square wave encoder input for dual loop control, dedicated analog and digital I/O (expandable with the -IO
option), a resolver input, and separate power connections for motor and control supply voltages.
