LS-173U is an enhanced version of the standard LS-173 servo drive with additional hall velocity mode for applications using brushless motors without optical encoder. Up to 31 intelligent drives can be controlled over a multi-drop full duplex RS-485 network in a distributed motion control environment. Standard RJ-45 connectors and commercially available cables are used for daisy chaining of the modules. LS-173U is equipped with various safety features such as short circuit protection for the motor and amplifier, over travel limit switch inputs, emergency stop input, over and under voltage shutdown. The maximum motor output current can be limited by setting of dipswitches.
