Adept SmartController CX
The SmartController CX is the foundation of Adept’s family of high-performance
distributed motion and vision controllers. The SmartController CX is designed for use
with:
• Adept Cobra s-series robots
• Adept Viper s-series robots
• Adept Python Modules
• Adept Servo Kit Systems
• Adept sMI6 (SmartMotion)
• Adept Quattro robots
The SmartController CX supports an integrated vision option and a conveyor tracking
option. It offers scalability and support for IEEE 1394-based digital I/O and general
motion expansion modules. The IEEE 1394 interface is the backbone of Adept SmartServo,
Adept's distributed controls architecture supporting Adept products. The controller also
includes Fast Ethernet and DeviceNet.
