CMD-4CR-EV

Advanced OEM 4-Axis Hybrid IC Motion Controller for Custom Solutions development kit


CMD-4CR-EV is an advanced 4 axis Development Kit, designed to allow quick testing of the Commander  core motion controller’s (CMD-4CR) features. Communication to the CMD-4CR-EV and thus CMD-4CR, is established over USB, or RS-485 network. This documentation covers the hardware specifications of the  CMD-4CR-EV. Refer to the Commander, Command Reference, and Software Utility Manuals for more  information.



The Commander evaluation board allows for faster prototyping and evaluation, so OEMs can ramp up production. This part number only includes the evaluation board, and not the core module.
