BRX PLCs are Do-more^® Driven: Motion on multiple levels

Integrated Motion on Multiple Levels

Motion with BRX PLCs can be as easy or sophisticated as you need. Three levels of instruction complexity allow you to choose the degree of customization involved with your motion control application. Choose the zero complexity option with minimal user input, the intermediate level for more user-defined features, or the advanced level to create custom move profiles. And with the built-in high-speed I/O, the BRX platform takes practical motion to a whole new level.

Get in motion...it's easy with BRX

All BRX PLC models with 24VDC I/O have high-speed inputs and outputs built in with an additional 128 local high-speed points possible through expansion. This high-speed I/O can be used to track rapid encoder pulses, drive stepper motors, or can be configured for other counter/timer, axis/pulse, pulse-width-modulated or table-driven functions:

Timer/Counter: BRX PLCs can be configured to count input pulses, or measure the time between pulses, up to a 250kHz maximum pulse rate.
Axis/Pulse: BRX PLCs can have up to three axis of control with an additional virtual axis for internal control and following applications.
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM): The high-speed outputs can also be used to generate a carrier frequency with varying pulse widths.
Table-driven: Tables of preset values can be used to turn the high-speed outputs ON and OFF based on the pulse count values of one high-speed input.
