Choice of Communication Interfaces
Baldor's servo drive range are equipped with a range of
communication interfaces including standard RS232/485
programming ports. The MicroFlex e100 and H2 servo drives have
an onboard USB port for fast connection to PCs.
Series-II and H2 drives have the option of fieldbus interfaces
including CANopen, DeviceNet and Profibus-DP. A web server option,
with Ethernet interface is available for the H2.
Our latest generation MicroFlex e100 comes equipped with a
real-time Ethernet interface supporting ETHERNET Powerlink. This
replaces the traditional ±10V and encoder signals with a single
Ethernet cable.

information on Baldor's real-time Ethernet
Solution
RS485 communications provide a cost effective diagnostics
network for up to 32 devices. Drives can be connected to a
NextMove controller providing status information such as error, I/O
status and position.
DeviceNet, Profibus-DP and CANopen are supported on the
Series-II range of drives. Access to an executing Mint program is
provided by means of the Mint Comms Array. Commands, such as
moves and gain scheduling can be performed over the network.
Baldor's CANopen implementation provides peer-to-peer
networking between the NextMove range of motion controllers,
Flex+Drive-II and MintDrive-II. Data can be passed between nodes to
each node's Mint program.
MicroFlex e100 is our latest generation servo drive. MicroFlex
e100 sports a real-time Ethernet link, utilizing ETHERNET Powerlink.
Using our new NextMove e100 multi-axis motion controller, up to 16
axes of interpolated motion and over 200 axes of indexing motion
can be achieved. Alternatively, MicroFlex e100 can be configured
for standard TCP/IP mode for interfacing with the factory network for
remote diagnostics, set-up or simple indexing motion.
