ClearCore features
EtherNet/IP: 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet EtherNet/IP Explicit & Implicit Messaging Adapter
Serial Port: RS-232 communications with hardware flow control. Has an activity LED and 5 volt power pin for the remote device if needed
See the I/O state and exception status at a glance on dedicated LEDs. Faster software development and easier troubleshooting.
Add up to 64 more digital I/O points in 8-point increments by daisy-chaining CCIO-8 expansion modules.
All I/O points are also available on a header connector
All I/O points are compatible with 24V industrial sensors and actuators. Power with 24 VDC.
Directly control in-line brakes and other high current outputs up to 750 mA RMS
Heavy duty digital outputs can directly drive resistive or inductive loads up to 9 watts, so you can drive contactors, pneumatic or liquid valves, guard locks, brakes, LED lamps, etc. without separate relays.
Every I/O point has a separate terminal block, with its own power and ground pins. This eliminates running multiple wires to one connector terminal or creating specially made breakout boards.
Rugged polycarbonate and aluminum case
Small: 3.5" x 5" x 1"
Control up to 4 axes of stepper and/or servo motors. ClearPath-SD and -MC* integrated servos are "plug and play" using standard cables. Note: Only certain operational modes in the MC series are recommended when using ClearLink (see below for more information).
Multiple Mounting Methods: Panel mount and DIN Rail option to mount in-panel or on machine.
Protected against overloads (voltage, current and thermal), ESD, inductive flyback, reversed power polarity, and most wiring errors.

Control Stepper Motors and/or Digital Servos...

...Including ClearPath SD- and MC-Series Integrated Servos

ClearPath-SD
Position & Velocity
With ClearLink's step & direction outputs, you can control ClearPath-SD servo systems to achieve high performance in a low-cost, compact package. This combination will provide complete control over the motion profile including position, velocity, and acceleration.
ClearPath-SD is also an easy upgrade over stepper motors giving you smoother, quieter, and more precise closed-loop motion.

ClearPath-MC
Torque Control
ClearLink combined with ClearPath-MC is the easiest way to achieve high-performance torque control for applications using an Ethernet/IP master PLC that have no precise positioning requirements (e.g. web tensioning applications).
The MC motors can be used in one of two operational modes with the ClearLink controller for torque control. Follow Digital Torque Command allows you to control the torque output of the motor (no control over position or velocity) while the Follow Digital Velocity Command w/ Variable Torque mode allows you to control the active torque limit and the commanded velocity at any given time.
