A description of the catalog numbers are shown in the following table:
Catalog

Description
PCI202-504 NextMove PCI-2 expansion card with PNP digital outputs, 4 axis
PCI202-514 NextMove PCI-2 expansion card with NPN digital outputs, 4 axis
OPT225-504 Single expansion interconnect card to connect NextMove PCI-2 to one
expansion card.
OPT225-505 Dual expansion interconnect card to connect NextMove PCI-2 to two
expansion cards.
The relay on the expansion card can be accessed by using the Mint RELAY keyword, with the
bank dot parameter set to 1. For example, RELAY.1=1 will activate the relay on the first
expansion card. The RELAY keyword cannot be used if the relay is being used as a drive
enable output. See the Mint help file. Connections to the expansion card’s relay are present
only on the breakout module attached to the expansion card.
A.1.2 Hardware channel availability when using expansion card(s)
When used in combination with either one or two expansion cards, the NextMove PCI-2
system can provide a maximum of 12 physical axes (e.g. 8 axis NextMove PCI-2 with 4 axis
expansion card). Figure 26 represents a 2 axis NextMove PCI-2 witha4axisexpansion card,
providing a total of six physical axes. The Mint WorkBench Axis Config Wizard has been used
to configure ‘Axis 3’ as a servo axis, using the servo channel 0 outputs (Demand0). Similarly,
‘Axis 4’ has been configured as a stepper axis using the stepper channel 1 outputs (STEP1 &
DIR1), and ‘Axis 7’ as a servo axis using servo channel 4 (Demand0 on the expansion card).
