The ClearPath-SC software foundation, or "sFoundation", is an object-
oriented, motion control class library. The sFoundation has versions for
C++ and .NET development. This library includes a large number of
functions used to interface with, and control your ClearPath-SC integrated
servo motor.
The sFoundation also includes a detailed software development kit (SDK)
with all the files you'll need to begin coding immediately. In addition, the
SDK includes several example projects and a detailed class reference help
document.

IERARCHY
The sFoundation libraries are organized into a logical hierarchy (see
diagram next page) to help software developers understand class
relationships and find relevant functions quickly.
The sFoundation comprises three main levels: a Node level, Port level,
and System level. A node is just a ClearPath-SC motor. Most of your
application software will interface with Node level objects.
You can think of the sFoundation structure as a hierarchy wherein an
instance of a System class object “owns” all of the instances of the Port
