Is the PMC-54300-D a 3 Axis Stepper Controller or 4 Axis Stepper Controller?
A The PMC-54300-D is a 4 Axis Stepper Controller DSP based. Its software package is very wide and includes several free extra programs as the SuperiorCNC, MotoRunner, LabVIEW drivers, Windows 32bit API and HPGL import support. The SuperiorCNC operates 3 Axis only, while the 4th Axis hardware is used as an additional X Axis in XXYZ applications, with the ability of running at the same direction or at the oposite direction of the X Axis. The MotoRunner and 32bit API operates the complete hardware package of 4 Axis, with an extra ability of driving up to 16 stepper drivers by a single PMC-54300-D controller. All Series-5000 compatible drivers fit this operation, and any non series-5000 driver with Enable/Disable input has a certain level of fitness.
