5.3 System Configuration and Module Types
The following chart shows all the available configuration options and the descriptor
characters used to indicate them.

Module Types
Each Python module system configuration can be ordered with a variety of module types,
depending on the payload and space requirements. For example, single-axis (‘S’ type)
systems can be ordered with L18, L12, L08, or Theta modules.
The next 4 digits in the module system descriptor number define the type of module used
for module 1, module 2, module 3, and module 4 (future) respectively. A ‘1’ in any
location denotes an L18 module, a ‘2’ denotes an L12 module, ‘3’ denotes an L08 module,
and ‘6’ denotes an LT1 (Theta) module (‘0’ denotes no module present).
Examples:
S2000 - a single-axis system comprising an L12 module as module 1.
P1230 - a three-axis ‘P’-style system comprising an L18 as module 1, an L12 module as
module 2, and an L08 module as module 3.
