3 Motionnet Master-Slave Motion System
Motionnet is an ultra-high-speed serial communication system
proposed by NPM (Nippon Pulse Motor) with strong performance
with MNET serial connection application. The maximum transfer
speed is up to 20Mbps. The PCI-7856 is equipped with one MNET
port to offer up to 256 axis control via serial connections. With an
ADLINK MNET solution, we not only offer single axis configuration
but also provide 4-axis control with interpolation functions. The
individual devices can control Mitsubishi J3, Yaskawa Sigma
series, and Panasonic A4 series servo drives. The controller can
be used for executing continuous operations at constant
speeds, performing linear acceleration/deceleration and S-curve
acceleration/deceleration, carrying out preset positioning opera-
tions, and zero return operations, etc. In addition, a 4-axis motion
controller can also support linear/circular interpolation functions.
For connection distance, the cable length can be extended up to
100 m using an ordinary CAT5e LAN cable while connecting 64
axes at 20Mbps. ADLINK MNET solution highlights the easy-to-
use motion control feature. All function library designs comply with
ADLINK PCI series motion controller and MNET bus motion con-
troller. ADLINK MNET solution not only offers single axis connec-
tion suitable for multiple PTP (point-to-point) movement
applications but also provides 4-axis motion controller with linear
and circular interpolation functions.
