Description
The National Instruments PCI-7342 (Part Number: 778665-02) is a 2-axis Motion Controller Device designed for servo/stepper motors, featuring advanced features such as multiaxis interpolation and contouring capability for complex moves. With a PID update rate of 62.5 to 500 µs/sample and 32 digital I/O channels, this device offers efficient operation and quick synchronization with other PCI based devices through an RTSI connector for up to eight trigger lines.
The National Instruments PCI-7342 (Part Number: 778665-02) is a 2-axis Motion Controller Device for servo/stepper motors, featuring a real-time embedded OS and multiaxis interpolation. This model offers fully coordinated gearing, linear, and circular control, along with a contouring capability for complex moves. The integrated CPU uses an embedded operating system with event-oriented multitasking control, allowing for efficient operation of multiple motion control programs without any lags or outside interaction. The device has a PID update rate of 62.5 to 500 µs/sample, a maximum step frequency of 4 MHz, and a power consumption of 5.7 W. It includes 32 digital I/O channels with programmable polarity and direction, as well as two PWM outputs for generating periodic waveforms. The PCI-7342 also offers quick synchronization with other PCI based devices through an RTSI connector, allowing for up to eight RTSI trigger lines. Operating with the NI-Motion driver software, this device weighs around 170 g and measures 6.9 x 3.9 in. in dimensions. The PCI-7342 requires specific accessories for operation, and although it has reached End of Life status, it is still available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves.

Shipping Options:
Next Day Air Early AM - This service is the fastest overnight delivery option available. For most locations the package will be guaranteed by 8:30AM.
Next Day Air – This service guarantees delivery by 10:30AM and is the most frequently used option for overnight shipments.
Next Day Air Saver – This cost saving overnight alternative guarantees delivery by 3PM the next day.
2nd Day Air – For domestic shipments that would take 3-5 days if shipped via Ground, sometimes having the order in 2 days is a great way to go
Ground – Ground is the most inexpensive shipping option provided. Please ask if we are doing a “free domestic ground” shipping promotion on your order. We often provide free ground shipping on larger orders.
Emergency Courier – At times we can help work with a courier service to get the part to your facility during downtimes scenarios. We prefer that the customer sets up the courier but we can be there to make sure the product is handed off to the driver. Please give us a call to see if this is an option on your order.
Please Note: Products listed as “ships today” can ship same-day if an order is placed before 4PM. For larger drives and motors we ask that notification for same-day shipments be provided by 2PM at the latest. For any products listed as “ships in 3-5 days”, please give us a call to see if this can be expedited.
