1.1 SVB Module Overview and Features
1.1.1 SVB Modules
The SVB Module is a motion module used to control SERVOPACKs, stepping motor drivers, inverters, distributed I/O
devices, etc. via MECHATROLINK interface MECHATROLINK-I or -II.
The MECHATROLINK-II enables position, speed, torque, and phase control for highly accurate synchronized control.
In addition, sophisticated machine operations can be performed by switching the control mode while the axis is mov-
ing.
1.1.2 Built-in SVB and Slot-mounting Optional SVB
The SVB Modules are of two types: The built-in SVB (hereinafter referred to as Built-in SVB) and the slot-mounting
optional SVB (hereinafter referred to as Optional SVB)
A built-in SVB Module is incorporated in the following MP2000-series Machine Controllers.
MP2100, MP2100M, MP2300, MP2500, MP2500M, MP2500D, and MP2500MD
The Optional SVB is one of the optional modules for the Machine Controller. The SVB-01 Module is an Optional
SVB that can be mounted on Machine Controllers MP2200 and MP2300. An SVB-01 Module is mounted on Machine
Controllers MP2100M, MP2500M, MP2500MD as a standard feature.
1.1.3 Features
• Up to 21 slave stations can be connected to a single Module (the SERVOPACKs can be connected up to 16
axes).
MP2300: Up to 2 SVB-01 Modules can be mounted in optional slots.
The MP2300 incorporates a built-in SVB Module capable of controlling 16 axes and is able to
control up to 48 axes.
MP2200: Up to 16 SVB-01 Modules can be mounted in optional slots.
If an extension rack is used, 256 axes can be controlled.
MP2100M: Up to 14 SVB-01 Modules can be mounted in optional slots by connecting an extension rack.
The MP2100M incorporates a built-in SVB Module capable of controlling 32 axes and is able to
control up to 256 axes.
• Synchronization between Modules is also supported, making it suitable for both synchronous control and
interpolation across Modules.
• An SVB-01 Module used as a slave can be connected to a host controller equipped with MECHATROLINK
communication functions.
• Self-configuration enables automatic allocation of setting data for the slave device that is connected to
MECHATROLINK.
• SERVOPACK parameters can be managed over networks.
