See LSM.
A discrete motor primary section (coil or set of coils) in a motor that can be
energized independently. This section can contain only one vehicle during
transport system operation.

The physical distance between two motors that are mounted end to end. This
gap excludes the distance from the end of the stator to the end of the motor
housing.

See Node Controller.
A junction that is defined as the beginning, end, or intersection of Paths. The
different node types define their use: Simple, Relay, Terminus, Merge,
Diverge, and so on.
The application in a node controller that coordinates vehicle motions along a
path or paths of motors. The node controller is responsible for the motors on all
paths that begin at nodes that the node controller is responsible for.
There can be multiple node controllers in a transport system each responsible
for a subset of the nodes within the transport system.
