The flexible connection enables continuous communication between IT and production networks and the closed loop stepper motors can also be easily integrated into applications with state-of-the-art communication environments. The AZ series thus contributes to fast and secure data exchange. The connection to the network is made conveniently via a standardized Ethernet cable. 

The drivers are optionally compatible with the field bus systems Profinet, Ethercat and EtherNet / IP. Ethernet-based fieldbus systems can be used to set and execute operating data and adjust various parameters at high transmission speeds, as well as output alarm information and monitor the drive. All commands and status reports are transmitted in real time. In this way, the movements of several synchronously working stepper motors can be carried out reliably and precisely.
