1.1.1. Product Features
Hardware Features
1. High performance motion control
AHxxEMC-5A features EtherCAT motion control interface and is capable of controlling up to 32 axes. Maximum 6
axes synchronous linear interpolation and 3 axes synchronous circular interpolation.
Supports PLCopen motion control standard function blocks.
2. High efficiency
The AH Motion CPU adopts a 32-bit high-speed processor. The instructions are executed at a speed of 0.3
milliseconds per 1k steps. (50% of the instructions are ladder instructions, and 50% of the instructions are other
standard instructions.)
3. Multiple I/O modules
The I/O modules supported by the AH Motion CPU are digital input/output modules, analog input/output modules,
temperature measurement modules, network modules, motion control modules and remote I/O modules.

4. Larger program capacity and memory
The program capacity of the AH Motion CPU can be up to 256k steps. Users do not need to change to a more
advanced CPU if the user program grows bigger.
The AH Motion CPU offers 128k words of data registers; 64k words of D devices and 64k words of L devices.
