Note5
Note 1. The RCX240S controller is limited to use with robots that handles 200W or lower on each axis. Check the following controller selection table to nd the matching model.
Note 2. The regenerative unit (option) is required when operating a model designated by YAMAHA or a load with a large inertia. Please refer to the following regenerative unit selection table.
Note 3. YK550X / YK500XG to YK1000XG are for RGU-3.
Note 4. Use N to N4 when NPN is selected on the I/O board, and P to P4 when PNP is selected.
Note 5. Available only for the master.
Note 6. Uses no-battery specications if connecting to all axis - linear motor.
Note 7. If any or Single-axis among the XY axes are absolute specications then 2 batteries are required.
Note 8. If any or Single-axis among the ZR axes are absolute specications then 2 batteries are required.

Controller model selection table
The RCX240S controller is limited to use with robots that handles 200W or lower on each axis and is partly modied such as for optimizing the IPM, but it is
fully compatible with RCX240 operation and functions, and peripheral equipment can be used by both models.

Multi-robot: Driver list for each model
For “multi-robots” that are used in combination with one or more single-axis robots, the RCX240S can be used unless the divers for the combined models
include a 20A model.
