1.4 Product specific information
The F-FEM (Fast–Front End Module) represents the current generation of
Front End Modules (FEMs). Data communication happens via an IEEE1394
interface to PUMA test bed workstation. Thus, within a PUMA system real time
data communication is ensured.
Compatibility
The F-FEM-DDC can be used with PUMA Open automation system.
Function of the
