PLC Feature-Installed Position Controller SCON-LC/LCG

Maximum number of 40 axis can be operated under 1 single controller.
The power has improved more than of the XSEL controllers before.

Feature 1 Standard-compatible to battery-less absolute
encoder-installed actuators

Standard-compatible against actuators installed with battery-less absolute encoder.
No battery maintenance required as there are no batteries required. Does not need to return to home position in events of startup and restart after emergency stops or stoppings caused by malfunctions. This reduces the working time and the production cost at the same time.

Feature 2 Reduced program processing time

Improvement in internal CPU power has lead to an improvement in processing power. This improves the SEL language instruction processing speed, cutting the program processing time shorter.

Feature 3 Improved functions

The volume of data has improved largely in comparison to conventional XSEL controllers.

Feature 4 Standard-compatible to Ethernet/USB

Ethernet and USB ports are standard installed as PC software interface and generic message communication interface.

Feature 5 Expansion motion control

MechatrolinkⅢ specification IAI position controllers can be connected up to 32 axis, and they can be controlled using XSEL controller.

【Connectable controllers:
PCON-CB, ACON-CB, DCON-CB, SCON-CB, MCON and MechatrolinkⅢ specification】
Adding in the maximum axis number a XSEL controller can connect, which is 8, the maximum axis number operable・controllable by 1 controller unit totals to 40 axis. It can operate using positioner feature and synchronous control feature(※).
※Synchronous control feature is not available for SCARA robot controller.

Feature 6 Easier control for external device

Input operation data column is added in to position data. External device controlling signals for each target positions can be obtained through easy steps. Conventionally, specific programs had to be created in order to output signals, but such programs are no more a requirement.

Feature 7 Ample network compatibility 【Optional】

Either "EtherNet/IP (※)" or "EtherCAT", and one out of "DeviceNet", "CC-Link" and "PROFIBUS" can be used simultaneously.
※Ethernet communications are also available.
