12-Axis Pulse Motion Controller with AB Phase Encoder Inputs

Economical Multi-Axis Pulse Control

The JMC-8012 is an economical multi-axis pulse controller supporting 12 pulse axes, with the axis count expandable through RS485/CAN bus extension. Six AB-phase encoder inputs are available for position feedback from the driven axes.

Offline Programming

The controller supports offline programming in ladder diagram (Mitsubishi style), C language, and custom function blocks. Motion functions cover point-to-point motion, multi-axis linear interpolation, 2-3 axis circular interpolation, and spiral interpolation.

Memory and Interfaces

1 MB RAM is available for program execution and 128 KB of power-off storage retains programs and parameters when power is removed. Interfaces include one CAN, one RS232, two RS485, one USB 2.0, and one Ethernet port.
