XE2 sets new levels of performance, connectivity, and flexibility. CANopen application protocol over EtherCAT (CoE) communication provides a widely used, cost-effective industrial bus. A wide range of absolute encoders are supported. High-resolution A/D converters ensure optimal current loop performance. Both isolated and high-speed non-isolated I/O are provided. For safety critical applications, redundant power stage enabled inputs can be employed. An integral fan and heatsink enable the drive to deliver the continuous output currents in any mounting orientation. The internal regeneration resistor dissipates the energy returned by load decelerations.
