5100 Series Controller

The 5100 Series are a compact, low-cost Ethernet bases controller suitable for small machine control. It has non-web based remote monitoring and simple motion control.   The system has 6 slots and can provide up to 50 analog and digital I/O, up to 4 axes of motion (not mutually inclusive).

They are programmed with CTC’s Quickstep^TM programming language.
