1. Product Summary
Thank you for purchasing our multi-axis controller "ARIES" and "LYNX".
Adopting Motionnet®, "ARIES" and "LYNX" are controllers that enable comprehensive
system configuration through unified management of multi-axis control.
By installing more LYNX (slave controller) for ARIES (master controller), 32 axes can be
controlled at maximum.
While keeping the functions of SC series as feedback control and trigger function, new
functions as servo control, general I/O and soft limit are added.
