Introduction
The following information is provided to Hypertherm channel partners for reference only, to help you
select an EtherCAT component that is supported by EDGE Connect/T/TC CNCs.
The information represents what Hypertherm has tested in our labs and can verify is compatible with
EDGE Connect CNCs. Other equipment may work, but we do not support equipment that we have
not tested and verified.
This document is updated regularly. If you do not see a supplier or
component of interest, please contact your Hypertherm sales
representative or Hypertherm application engineer.
Work in partnership with your drive manufacturer to select and configure
the drives for your cutting system. Refer to your drive manufacturer’s drive
documentation for technical information about the drives.

Before you begin
The tables on the pages that follow contain the I/O modules that Phoenix supports. These
tables do not give all the requirements from the I/O module manufacturer. Please refer to the
manufacturer’s design guide for specific information.
Make sure that you can remove power, including control (logic) power, from all I/O modules.
Refer to your I/O module manufacturer’s documentation for more information.
Many drive amplifiers have I/O available for use. Additional I/O modules may be necessary
with different numbers and styles of I/O.

NOTICE
Make sure you can remove power, including control (logic) power, from all drives.
Refer to your drive manufacturer’s drive documentation for more information.
Mixing of different brands of drives in one system is not supported.
All drives must support and be configured for a 1 ms update rate.
All drives must be set up as linear axes.
Many drive amplifiers have I/O available for use. The need for additional I/O depends on the
total number of I/O and the I/O style required. For a list of supported I/O modules, see
Supported I/O modules on page 6.
