PLUS+1® Controllers
MC012-110 and MC012-112
Mobile Machine Management
These general purpose modular housings,
connectors, and control circuitry are designed as
flexible, expandable, powerful, cost effective stand
alone modules for smaller machined systems or as
total machine management systems with intelligence
in every node. These modules communicate with one
another and other intelligent systems over a machine
Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
Product Highlights
Both controllers employ a 32 bit Cortex-M3 Processor,
providing the controllers with extremely fast single
cycle processing speed, and 512K internal flash. The
MC012-112 controller has an application key that
enables the use of Danfoss developed GUIDE machine
control solutions. The same GUIDE HWD file is used
with all four controllers.
Application Development
PLUS+1® hardware modules have input or output
pins that support multiple functions. Pins that
support multiple input or output types are userconfigurable using PLUS+1® GUIDE software. This
Microsoft® Windows® based development
environment features a user-friendly, field proven,
icon-based graphical programming tool, application
downloader, and service/diagnostic tool.
