operation is the microcontroller, PLC systems can’t match；Use embedded structure，
High degree of integration，Strong stability，easy to installation and operation；U disk
support，Removable storage card reader，With USB Interface，High speed transfer，
Plug and play the full realization of all work offline.
Characteristics:
1. System deploy standard X, Y, Z axis motion control method ,Support the rotation
axis（A axis）control，Enables to switch the processing of surface and processing
of rotation ; Up extended to X, Y, Z, A four-axis motion control, Implementation
four axis interlocking Control.
2. Multi I / O Point Control，there is 16 input and output signals in every basic I / O
signal node ，expansion I / O nodes can be expanded to 32 input and output
signals.
