Compumotor's new Gemini GV6 is a compact, low-cost, digital servo drive/controller. In addition to all of the drive features of the Gemini GV, the GV6 incorporates basic motion control and sequencing capabilities, allowing solutions for many distributed control applications. The Gemini GV6 is easily configured/ programmed via RS232/485 using Compumotor’s Motion Planner TM on a PC or Pocket Motion Planner TM on a Windows CE-based Palm PC. The Gemini GV6 also offers connectivity to several field buses including Profibus, Interbus, and SERCOS.*
