Integrated Motion Control
Applications
DeviceNet with ULTRA Drives and ControlLogix
The DeviceNet network connects devices directly to controllers without the need to wire them to I/O modules or use serial communication connection to pass information. Up to 64 devices can be configured on one DeviceNet network.
Advantages of a Servo System
- Allows for multi-drop communication using an industrial grade communication network
- Minimizes discrete I/O transfer connections to reduce costs
- Changes motion dynamics to pass new setpoint values, start and stop motion, and read feedback information
- Provides setup and stores drive parameters via DeviceNet
- Minimizes overall system downtime with ability to hot-plug product into existing network
