The iPOS360x SX multi-axis motion system allows users to plug in up to four iPOS3602 VX or iPOS3604 VX intelligent drives and provides all necessary connectors (motor, encoder feedback and I/O signal) for each drive. The drives are connected through a CAN-bus link. Two CAN-bus connectors plus an optionally connectable terminal resistor ensure a rapid connection to any CAN-bus network configuration. An RS-232 link offers easy access to all drives using a standard PC for setup and testing. Future developments will include an Ethernet-to-CAN adapter, while a DIN rail mounting and a metallic cover are available as options.
