RoHS compliant products may be indicated by a -G1 part number and/or RoHS Compliant label. REV012407 INTEGRATED MICROSTEPPING MOTOR DRIVER AND HIGH PERFORMANCE MACHINE/PROCESS CONTROLLER DESCRIPTION The MicroLYNX is a powerful machine control system in te grat ing a bi po lar microstepping driv er and ex pand able pro gram ma ble controller into a com pact panel mounted assembly. Available in two out put power ranges, MicroLYNX fi ts a va ri ety of mo tor sizes. Fea tures such as +5 to +24 VDC isolated I/O, mul ti ple com mu ni ca tion types and nu mer ous ex pan sion op tions make the MicroLYNX an effective and powerful ma chine con trol solution. Optional dif fer en tial I/O modules give the MicroLYNX the ca pa bil i ty of driving two additional axes sequentially or allowing electronic gearing by following a rotary or lin ear axis, or out put ting a second clock at an elec tron i cal ly controlled ra tio. The MicroLYNX provides for two fully independent com mu - ni ca tion ports. It will ac cept com mands from either port and di rect out put to ei ther as well. A sys tem could be confi gured to use COMM port one to com mu - ni cate to a host PC or PLC while the second com mu ni cates with an op er a tor in ter face or ad di - tion al MicroLYNX. The MicroLYNX can be used to con trol both sim ple and com plex systems. With plug-in ac ces so ry mod ules OEMs have the option of only pur chas ing the features they need for any giv en system design, reducing over all cost. The MicroLYNX can be fi eld up grad ed by simply removing its side cover and adding or changing an expansion module, minimizing system down time. Software for the MicroLYNX is upgradable. Updates are posted on the IMS web site and can be down load ed and installed using the IMS Ter mi nal/Upgrade soft ware provided with the MicroLYNX. This allows older units to use new features and ex pan sion mod ules as they become avail able.
