Product Description
Product Description

The DDCS V3.1 is a 3 or 4 axis motion controller for stepper and servo systems.DDCS V3.1 is updated from DDCS V1.1 and DDCS V2.1. We are very proud of this product, it combines great power with a tiny footprint and is easy to use. After a very short time you will be familiar with the functions. The highest output pulse per axis is 500KHz. The pulse width is adjustable (refer to driver manual). The control period of each position is only 4 milliseconds. This provides high control precision for stepper motors and servo motors. The DDCS V3.1 numerical control system adopts the ARM+FPGA design framework. ARM controls the human-computer interface and code analysis and the FPGA provides the underlying algorithms and creates the control pulse. This guarantees reliable control and easy operation. The internal operating system is Linux based. The panel layout structure of the DDCS V3.1 is very rational to save space. All operations are controlled by only 17 keys and a comprehensive G code set is supported. The DDCS can be used for many styles and types of CNC machines. Lathes, Routers, Pick&Place and Mills are just a few examples. It operates as a Stand Alone system without the need of a computer. This guarantees high precision, accuracy and reliability.

2. Product Wiring Overview

DDSC-DES-2

As the picture shows, the wiring section of the controller has Input Ports,Spindle&Output Ports,stepper/Servo control step and direction output,MPG Port, USB Port and Power supply Port. 

 

1) MPG Wiring

The MPG port the DB15 Female terminals next to the USB port. The users need to weld the MPG cables into the DB15 Male terminal,and plug-in to the MPG port of the controller MPG port.

 

 

2) Main Port Wiring

We supply a wiring terminal to fit the 37 pin female connector of the main port. This simplifies the wiring. Please note in picture 2.8, at the 4 corners, there are screws to lock the terminal to the controller.

 

 

There are 3 layers of the Wiring Terminal.Pls note the following photo,which showed the pin No.s and Pin Mark and definition.It include:

1) Stepper/Servo Output Ports;

2) The Spindle Control Output Ports;

3) The E-stop,Limit,Home and Probe and other Inputs ports;

4) 24V DC Power Supply ports for the Controller;

5) 24V DC Power Supply ports for the I/O Unit.

DDSC-DES-12

 

3) Spindle Wiring

PIN3(M8),PIN22(M10),PIN2(VSO) and PIN21(M3) is for spindle control output.The spindle control output terminal offers connections for Start and Stop of the Spindle (M3/M5), Start/Stop of Cooling (M8/M9) and Start/Stop of Lubrication (M10/M11). These three output terminals are signals open to ground. The highest electric current can be absorbed is 50mA. The speed controlling output terminal can output 0-10V. It can adjust the speed of the spindle motor by sending the voltage between 0 and 10V to the VFD according the the Spindle Speed Setting. Controlling the speed of a spindle with a VFD (variable frequency drive) only needs the Start/Stop signal and the 0-10V signal to control the frequency.

PIN3(M8),PIN22(M10) and PIN21(M3) is also can be used for OUTPUT ports.For example,it can be used for a Relay output port.For example next photo shows the wiring methods:

8. Questions and Answer

Q1:   When I power on my controller there is beep and Reset signal is flickering,I pressed Reset button many times but still cannot work normally?

A:  1) Please check if the Reset signal of the MPG is active,you can take off the MPG or set a reserve value of #429;

      2)  Please check the “External Key” which defined as RESET was triggered,you can modify the definition;

 

Q2:Why all my wiring connections on Input and output signal are correct,but the signal still is disable?

A: DDCS V3.1 controller need two power supplies to work properly.One is for controller system one is for IO port.Only when with IO power is supplied,the Input and Output signals,the MPG can have power to work.

 

Q3:  Why my wiring connection on MPG is correct but MPG still didn’t work properly?

A:   MPG need the IO power to work,please check the IO port power supply.

 

Q4:  Why I stopped turnning the handwheel on MPG,but the machine is still running?

A:    If #448=0,Open the MPG control Mode,means the MPG will work in precise mode.In precise mode,the MPG will send out each pulse the handwhleel made.If you want that when you stop turnning the handwheel,then machine stop running,you just set the #448=1.

 

Q5:   When I power on the controller,my screen always stay at the Open page?

A:     Pleaseh go to the website and download the latest install file,upgrade your controller.If still same problem,contact the factory and ask for maintenance.

 

Q6: Why my controller is always stay at one page,it cannot change even I did a lot of operation?

A:  1) Check if the soft limit signal or hard limit signal is triggered;

      2) The main program number of DDCS is 0. If the program number (such as O0001) is defined in your G-code, please change it to O0000 or delete it.

 

Q7: Why I already set the controller language is Eng in Param Page,but my controller still display in Chinese language?

A: After setting a new language,please restart your controller,then your controller will display the language which you set.

 

Q8: In the processing period,nothing happened even I pressed any buttons.

A:  The problem maybe from electromagnetic interference,the solutions are:

1: Don’t use the USB cable,just insert the U-disk into the controller USB port.

2: The metal part of the USB cable cannot touch with the controller box,and also you can lock a magnetic ring on the USB cable to ignore the noise.

3:The wiring from the inverter to controller,please use the shielded cable,expecially the wiring from the servo system to controller,the user must use the shielded cable,to avoid interference.

 

Q9: Can the Homing siganl and Limit signal share one switch?

A: Yes you can.

 

Q10: Why my toolpath display is not suitable with the screen,or my toolpath display jammed?

A:  When it is a new file,and its the first time the controller running the file,the toolpath display maybe too small or too big for the screen,it may happens.Please don’t display the toolpath.Just let the controller running the file completely one time,the controller will know the size of the file,next time the system can adjust the display,and show at correct size toolpath itself.

 

Q12: I just checked all the wiring and setting,all is correct.But Controller still cannot running a file very well,if I need the technology supporting,which files I will supply to facotry to troubleshooting?

A:

1) setting file in controller system

2) The G-code file you are running

3)Description of the problem

Please send the files our Technology Team,we will use your files to check out problem.
