About this Manual 3.
MPC
3.1.
The MPC is SMC's low cost Ethernet positioning cylinder. The MPC series offers a cylinder, solenoid
valve, linear positioner, and controller in one package. With its integral position control, the MPC
needs only power and Ethernet input signal. The target position is kept by opening and closing
solenoid valves controlling pressure on the cylinder. The MPC has an output signal to give position
feedback to a customer's controller. Standard ball bushings protect against side load.
Purpose 3.2.
The purpose of this manual is to provide the user with necessary information to install, configure,
and use the MPCXX-XXX-XXX-XX-DUT01607. The MPC may be operated under the control of a
network connected PLC. This manual provides information for MPC setup and configuration,
examples of the web interface, and a brief overview of the PLC. This document is not an operator’s
manual for the Rockwell PLC or any other PLC. Please see the PLC manufacturer’s documentation
for detailed instructions on the setup and use of your PLC.

Product Summary 5.
The MPCXX-XXX-XXX-XX-DUT01607 (MPC) is a multi-position cylinder which is controlled by an
Ethernet interface. MPCs move to a position value specified by the user. In the past, an electric
actuator was the only option for applications demanding a multiple number of stroke positions.
SMC's MPC series now provides an alternative and economical solution.
The Ethernet interface allows a user to configure, control, and monitor the MPC over a
communication link using commands sent from a PLC or internal webserver. The user can change
the position setpoint as required. The user can also monitor the operation of the MPC, verifying the
actual position.
Offered as a pneumatic and lower cost alternative, the MPC (Multi Position Cylinder) uses an
Ethernet input signal to automatically adjust the actuator stroke. Once the MPC reaches the desired
position, it is pneumatically locked until the input signal is changed.
To accomplish this, the MPC utilizes an integrated cylinder, solenoid valve, linear sensor, and
controller all in one unit. You need only to supply air, power, and the appropriate input signal. This
easy adjustment makes the MPC perfect for on the fly changes to your process.
