2.1.1 Outline of the GM1 System

■
Network control
A MINAS series servomotor network system can be easily configured using the RTEX network
dedicated to motion control.
■
System configuration including virtual axes
It is possible to create a system that consists of up to 20 axes including a maximum of 16 real
axes and a maximum of 20 virtual axes.
■
Two LAN ports
Other than the RTEX, there are two Ethernet connection ports.
Each port can have a unique IP address. They can be used for different purposes, such as for
an in-device network or for a host system network.
■
Equipped with the high-speed counter input and PWM output
The GM1 Controller is equipped with a 2-ch high-speed counter input for 16 MHz (multiplied by
4) and a 4-ch PWM output that can output a maximum of 100 kHz. These functions can be
used without adding expansion units.
