–
†
† When using RS-422 communications with the motors, limited by the number of RS-422 connections on the
node controller (NC LITE up to 4 connections, NC-12 up to 12 connections, NC-S up to 8 connections).
When using Ethernet communications with the motors, limited by the node controller configuration and pro-
cessor loading (NC LITE up to 5 nodes, NC-12 up to 16 nodes, NC-E up to 36 nodes, NC-S up to 16 nodes),
see the Node Controller Hardware User Manual, MMI-UM013.

* When using RS-422 communications with the motors, 50 vehicles maximum per path when all vehicles on
the path are commanded forward (downstream).
45 vehicles maximum per path when all vehicles on the path are commanded backwards.

* The limits that are shown are at the typical payloads (contact ICT Customer Support for payload guidance).
Use of a smaller payload may permit higher limits. Use of a larger payload may lower the limits.
