Motion Controllers-FM Modules
Modular functionality for EN & MDS series servo drives FM controls are application/function modules that provide added functionality to EN Series and MDS drives. These modules mount directly to the front of any EN Series or MDS drive, a convenient and economical solution for existing installations with limited mounting space and users wishing to stock drives and not controls. Currently, there are seven FM control modules from which to choose, depending upon the level of control needed.
Every FM module provides:
Unique control enhancements
8 additional optically-isolated digital inputs for a total of 12
4 additional optically-isolated digital outputs for a total of 7
Every FM module has:
