2. Outline
2.1 Outline
This product connects the G9001A-EV Board and G9004A_EX Board to a PC (personal computer) via USB 2.0 in message
communication mode. In both CPU emulation mode and message communication mode, connect the G9001A-EV Board and
G9004A -EX Board with a Motionnet cable.
By controlling the G9001A-EV Board from the application software (MNET-STK.exe), the CPU emulation mode G9004A -EX
Board can operate our axis control LSI (PCL6125) using an 8-bit/16-bit interface. In Message communication mode
G9004A_EX Board, you can send and receive by message communication by starting the application software (MNET-
STK_Message.exe).
CPU emulation mode G9004A -EX Board requires an external power supply.
The message communication mode G9004A_EX Board can be operated with a USB power supply.
