DCX-VM200 Series Motion Control Cards

Products / DCX-VM 200 Series

The DCX-VM200 motion control card is an economical VME motion control platform featuring the proven and popular modular multi-processing architecture first pioneered by PMC over a decade ago.

Each DCX-VM200 Series motion controller consists of an intelligent VME control card populated with any mix of up to six (6) intelligent plug-in function modules. Function modules are available for servo control, stepper control, digital I/O, analog I/O, and optional RS-232/422 or IEEE-488 communications.
