Chapter Introduction This chapter gives an overview of the product features, and specifi- cations for AMAX-1220/1240 Series. Sections include: Features Specifications...
Products in the AMAX-1220/1240 Series are used to increase the number of axes for an AMONet RS-485 distributed motion control network. These extension slave mod- ules connect serially by a simple and affordable Cat.5 LAN cable, reducing the wiring between driver and controller. This is very suitable for highly integrated machine automation applications.
