2.1 NextMove PCI features

NextMove PCI is a high speed multi-axis intelligent motion controller for use in PCI bus based PC systems.

NextMove PCI features the MintMT motion control language. MintMT is a structured form of Basic, custom designed for stepper or servo motion control applications. It allows you to get started very quickly with simple motion control programs. In addition, MintMT includes a wide range of powerful commands for complex applications.

Standard features include:

HControl of up to eight axes

HPoint to point moves, software cams and gearing

H20 digital inputs, software configurable as level or edge triggered

H12 digital outputs with NPN (FET) or PNP (Darlington) options available

H4 differential analog inputs with 12-bit resolution

HCANopen protocol for peer-to-peer communications with MintMT controllers and other third party devices

HProprietary CAN protocol for control of Baldor remote I/O devices

HProgrammable in MintMT
