iXL5e/XL5e Overview

The iXL5e is a high-performance digital drive-based controller. It runs the Automation1-iSMC controller to generate commands for itself as well as for additional drives on the chain.

The XL5e is a high performance digital drive. The XL5e is based on the HyperWire communication protocol and receives commands from a PC or drive-based controller.

Both drives have a linear amplifier designed for motion control applications that require the highest positioning accuracy and lowest generated noise. The drives are factory configured for the specified AC input voltage, motor output voltage, and current. Refer to Feature Summary for a complete list of features and ordering options.
