| The
Universal Motion and Automation Controller is a modular PMAC system built
with a set of 3U-format Eurocards. The heart of the UMAC is the Universal
Bus backplane. The UBUS is a backplane based on an expanded version of the
well-known PMAC Expansion Port through which many different accessories
connect to PMAC. |

The
UMAC can be populated with either a 3U-format Turbo PMAC2 CPU board or a
MACRO Interface/CPU board. To create a complete UMAC system, boards with
axis interface circuitry and/or I/O interface circuitry are added to the
UBUS backplane. |
| UMAC
provides a rugged, integrated package that puts the Turbo PMAC2 or MACRO
electronics, built-in breakout connectors, and power supply in an enclosed
3U rack. Individual boards can slide in and out of the rack, communicating
to the Turbo CPU or MACRO board over the common UBUS backplane and making
configuration and troubleshooting a snap. |
