The PISO-MN200EC is a PCI Master card that provides two Motionnet serial communication lines for distributed motion and I/O control in machine automation applications. The Master card can be used to connect up to 128 Slave modules (64 x 2 lines). If one of the Motionnet lines is only used for I/O control, it can send/receive signals to/from 2048 points on 64 local devices within 0.97 msec. When it is used to control motors, it can control up to 64 axes, which can be used to execute continuous positioning motion, zero return, and even multi-axis interpolation operations. In addition to serial communication, the PISO-MN200EC is also equipped with parallel I/O ports (8 input channels and 4 output channels) for rapid and instinctive I/O control.
