The ESP302 is an advanced stand-alone, easy to use, motion controller with up to 3
integrated motor drivers and outstanding powerful programming functionality.
It offers different operating modes through its user-friendly touchscreen front panel,
command remote ports, and web interface offering high-speed communication through
10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet.
The ESP302 provides advanced trajectory and synchronization features to precisely
control from the most basic to the most complex motion sequences. Multiple digital
triggers provide users with additional synchronization and control features that can
improve the most demanding motion applications.

play concept significantly increases user friendliness and improves overall motion
performance.
