Release Notes 2000

In This Document...
M90 OS versions 2.00 (B01) and later enable
you to use the last on-board output of M90
models T1 and T1-CAN in either:
High-Speed Output (HSO) mode,

Normal Output mode.

Dear Customer,
Using HSO mode gives you the ability to use an output as a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation)
output. You can also use an output in HSO mode together with stepper motor controllers.
To use HSO mode:

Use System Integer SI 16 HSO Mode to change the operating mode of Output 11 from
Normal mode to HSO mode: 0=Normal Mode, 1: HSO Mode.
This should be part of your programs Power-up tasks.

Set the output frequency (F) by storing a value into SI 17 HSO Frequency. Note that
F=1/T, where T is the duration time of a complete cycle.
You can store a value of 0, or a value from 3-1500HZ; other frequency values are not
supported.

Set the duty cyclethe ratio of the "on" period of a cycle to the total cycle periodby
storing a value into SI 18 Duty Cycle. This value may be from 0-1000, and is expressed as a
percentage.
If, for example, the constant 750 is stored into SI 18, the duty cycle is equal to 75.0%
(SI 18=1000(T ON/T). This means that the pulse will hold a positive state during 75.0% of
the total cycle.

Use SB 16 HSO RUN to control the output; when SB 16 is ON, Output 11 operates.

In the figure below, SI 18 is equal to 250. This results in the duty cycle being 25% of the total
cycle time.

T=cycle time (duration)

Note 1. If you store out-of-range values into SI 17 and SI 18, their values remain unchangedthey
retain the last legal values stored.
Note 2. All parameters except SI 16 may be changed during run-time.
