Additional Information
- Functionality: The PCM-11 attaches to the front of an FX Positioning Servo Drive, connecting via a 48-pin connector. It doubles the I/O capacity of the standard FX drive with 8 inputs and 4 outputs, all optically isolated for +10.5 to +30 VDC operation. Each I/O line has two screw terminals for current sinking or sourcing. The module supports complex motion programs, ratio control, and suspend/resume functions, enabling precise control of motion sequences.
