Part Number: AM2612

Champ,

My customer was told by Systec said

PRU-ICSS can support only one servo motor axis for Mechtrolink 3.

Only PRU-ICSSG can support multiple servo motor axies for Mechtrolink 3.

Can we confirm the limitation for single axis support on PRU-ICSS for M3? Is this correct statement?

If this is true, is the same limitaiton apply to EtherCAT for PRU-ICSS?

Systec owns the firmware architecture and implementation of M3 on ICSS. If they acknowledged this as limitation, then this might be correct. Will check with our Systec contacts on this to clarify
