Introduction
MOVI-C® CONTROLLER
Manual – MOVI-C
®
CONTROLLER

• The freely programmable MOVI‑C
®
CONTROLLER is scalable due to several dif-
ferent hardware platforms (standard, advanced, etc.) and modular software con-
cepts (libraries for numerous applications).
• The freely programmable MOVI‑C
®
CONTROLLER is powerful due to extensive
technologies (such as electronic cam, synchronous operation) and the control of
demanding applications (such as material handling).
Performance class "power eco"
The MOVI-C
®
CONTROLLER power eco UHX84A is characterized by a higher level of
performance and is suitable for automating machines and cells for up to 16interpolat-
ing axes and 16auxiliary axes.
Performance class "power"
The MOVI-C
®
CONTROLLER power UHX85A is the high-end motion controller for de-
manding automation tasks. The real-time operating system guarantees very short re-
sponse times as well as a high-performance connection of system buses from
SEW‑EURODRIVE and standard fieldbuses. Demanding visualization solutions can
be realized via the Windows
®
operating system that is running in parallel.
The MOVI-C
®
CONTROLLER power eco UHX84A is suitable for automating machines
and cells for up to 32interpolating axes and 32auxiliary axes. It is suited as a module
controller for complex motion functions such as electronic cams and robotics, as well
as for the complete automation of machines and systems.
3.2.2 Features

3.2.3 Overview of communication interfaces
The MOVI‑C
®
CONTROLLER has various communication interfaces:
• The Ethernet communication interface allows for engineering purposes for the
MOVI‑C
®
CONTROLLER, for connecting an operator panel as well as for commu-
nication with other Ethernet nodes.
• The EtherCAT
®
/SBus
PLUS
interface is used to control drive inverters, I/O modules
and other EtherCAT
®
slave components.
• The Windows
®
operating system provides various USB interfaces for connecting a
mouse, a keyboard, or a touchpad. A monitor can be connected via the DVI inter-
face.
