The M4500 product line supports motion control via the M4510 or M4512 PLC/PLS/Motion Control module and the S4520-RDC and S4520-ENC. The S4520-RDC/ENC are motion control Co-CPUs with motion control I/O integrated directly into the board. These are programmed with SYSdev just as any M4500 modules are.

Multiple axis control is provided where the resolver of the M4510 acts as the master axis and the S4520-RDC/ENC would represent a slave axis. The M4510 resolver position is passed directly to the S4520-RDC/ENC Co-CPUs in the form of a 12-bit (0-4095) angular position. The S4520-RDC/ENC than interact directly with a slave axis servo amplifier and feedback transducer, typically implementing a PID closed loop algorithm to control the axis. Up to eight slave axis can be implemented with each axis controlled independently by it's own S4520-RDC/ENC.

The S4520-RDC is used when a resolver is used as the servo feedback transducer while the S4520-ENC is used when an encoder is used as the feedback. The following motion boards are available:

M4510: 8-I/O slot PLC/PLS/Motion Controller
M4512: 12-I/O slot PLC/PLS/Motion Controller
S4520-RDC: Motion Control Co-CPU with resolver feedback
S4520-ENC: Motion Control Co-CPU with encoder feedback
