performance, digital servo drive.
The SC950 inherits all the advanced, high-performance
functionality as well as the small package size of the SC900
platform. The SC950 also inherits all the hardware resources of
that platform, including 6 points of bi-directional discrete I/O,
two analog outputs, one analog input, one encoder input port and
one encoder output port. The SC900 platform also provides two
high speed registration inputs.
Resources provided on all varieties the OC950 include
twenty-one points of bi-directional discrete I/O and an
