Stepnet TP2 is a dual-axis, high-performance, DC-powered drive for position and velocity control of stepper motors via CANopen. Using advanced FPGA technology, the TP2 provides a significant reduction in the cost per node in multi-axis CANopen systems. Each of the two axes in the TP2 operates as CANopen nodes under DS-402 for motion control devices. Supported modes include: Profile Position-Velocity, Interpolated Position Mode (PVT), and Homing. In microstepping mode, stepper command pulses and a master encoder for camming or gearing are supported. Servo mode allows ±10V analog position/velocity/torque, and PWM velocity/torque control.
