Iai robo cylinder controller RCP2-c-rsgd-a-pm-o-p __I65
One IAI Robo Cylinder Controller RCP2-C-RSGD-A-PM-O-P.
RCP2-C Absolute-type Controller:
Because the RCP2 series actuators do not feature absolute encoders, the RCP2-C Absolute type controller is not a true 'absolute' controller. This variation of the standard RCP2-C controller instead offers battery backup of the positioning data provided by the incremental encoder of the actuator. This configuration is ideal for applications in which power is frequently cycled (as in emergency stop situations), because the actuator need not return to the 'home' position before resuming motion. The RCP2-C Absolute type controller can therefore significantly reduce cycle time. However, moving the actuator suddenly without power may cause a loss of position data
