Brief Description
1.1 General information about SIMODRIVE POSMO A
Intelligent
positioning motor
SIMODRIVE POSMO A is an intelligent distributed positioning motor
connected as node to the PROFIBUS DP fieldbus.
SIMODRIVE POSMO A can be operated via PROFIBUS DP. This
means that all of the signals and data required to commission (start–
up) and operate the drive and also to evaluate faults are transferred via
PROFIBUS.
Further, the positioning motor can be operated in the standalone mode.
This means that in this case, bus communications are not required in
order to move the positioning motor
