Complete Your Machine Control

Because the SI4 connects over Automation1’s HyperWire® network, the

axes it controls can be coordinated with other axes on the network to

deliver contoured motion and a single, simple machine control architecture.

Feedback Features

Each clock and direction output axis on the SI4 includes encoder feedback

inputs so that you can verify accurate positioning.

This input accepts incremental square-wave, absolute and (optional)

incremental sine-wave encoder signals.

The dedicated axis feedback signals include encoder feedback (sine +/-,

cosine +/- & marker inputs), 2x end of travel (EOT) limit switch inputs and

amplifier enable and fault I/O. A dedicated digital I/O port supports 8 digital

inputs, 8 digital outputs (sourcing or sinking) and 1 differential high-speed

input.

Platform Power

More than just hardware, the SI4 gives you access to the complete power

of the Automation1 motion control platform. This includes the Automation1

motion development kit (MDK), the intelligent software-based controller

(iSMC) and the powerful AeroScript™ programming language with integrated

RS-274 G and M code support. The Automation1 iSMC can also be

programmed by various controller APIs, which provide flexible methods of

integrating the SI4 and the axes it controls into your system architecture.
