Product Features

1. High speed and high resolution controls
Both high speed and high resolution controls superior to conventional products are realized with high speed pulse output up to 8 MHz.
2. Super high function
Enables program input up to 10,000 steps.
3. USB interface provided as standard
With dedicated commands, data editing, controller operations and direct execution from PC are allowed.
Also, data can be stored and transferred via USB memory available on the market.
4. System configurations for various controls
As absolute encoders of YASKAWA ELECTRIC CORPORATION, Panasonic Corporation, and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation are supported, return to origin operation at the startup is not required.
5. Synchronization control function
Allows simultaneous execution and shutdown of any two axes(gantry mechanism control is possible).
6. Multi-tasking function
Allows simultaneous execution of up to five programs.
7. Streamlined wiring
Thanks to RS422 interface as standard equipment, LAN cable available on the market can be used for streamlined wiring by touch panel or sequencer data communication.
