Chapter I Control Card Introduction
⚫ECI is the abbreviation of network motion control card published by ZMOTION
Technology.
⚫ECI1A00 Series control card supports linear interpolation up to 12 axes, and
interpolation of random circular, spherical, helical, electronic cam, electronic gear,
synchronous follow, virtual axis, etc. Real-time control can be achieved through
optimized network communication protocol.
1.1 Connection Configuration
ECI network motion control card supports Ethernet and 232 communication
interfaces connect with computer, and receive instructions from computer. Also, it links
with each expansion module through ZCAN bus to extend inputs, outputs and axes of
motion (a 120Ω resistance is needed between CANL and CANH).

1.2 Installation and Programming
ZDevelop Development Environment
ECI motion control card is programmed and debugged by ZDevelop software.
ZDevelop, the software is easy to program, compile and debug. Link ZDevelop and
controller through serial port or Ethernet.
Application procedures can be programmed by VC, VB, VS, C ++ Builder, C # and
other software development. When debugs, Zevelop software can be connected with
controller simultaneously, but needs a dynamic library when the procedure is running:
zmotion.dll.

1.3 Features
⚫Motion control of up to 12 axes.
⚫Pulse output mode: Direction / pulse or double mode.
⚫Encoder position measurement is supported and can be configured as hand wheel
input mode.
⚫Maximum frequency output of each axis: 5MHz.
⚫Maximum inputs or outputs can reach 512 through CAN.
⚫The positive or negative limit signal / origin signal of axis can be configured to any
inputs.
⚫The output current can reach 300mA, which can directly drive some kinds of
solenoid valves.
⚫Linear interpolation of up to 6 axes, interpolation of random, spherical and helical.
⚫Electronic cam, electronic gear, position latch, synchronous follow and virtual axis
etc.
⚫Multi-file and multi-task programming in ZBasic.
⚫A variety of program encryption methods to protect the intellectual property rights
of customers.

Please offer internal 24V power and external IO power separately, especially
when there is severe electromagnetic interference on site, 2 24V power supplies must
be applied, or one power that can offer 24V output with 2 channels isolation. When
serial port connects with touch screen, please use internal 24V power to supply touch
screen.
For communication quality, please use twisted pair shielded wire, and shield
connects with the ground, the internal power of controller and expansion module use
the same one.
When multi controllers are linked on CAN bus, it is necessary to connect 120 Ω
resistor between CANL and CANH of the last IO expansion module.

Output circuit
When load is a large power inductive load, there needs freewheel diode to avoid
MOS breaking by high electromotive force. But if the load is resistive, no need of
freewheel diode.

Some servo drives are not optocoupler isolation (such as, Panasonic economical
servo), now the first pin GND must be connected with drive GND.
J1-J16 consists of 8 axes interface, each two terminals constitute one axis signal.
For example, J1 and J2 is the AXIS 0 interface signal.

There is ENABLE output in the axis signal, wiring refers to general output, and
there is no over-load protection, which is recommended to do motor enable.
