The PC processor sends commands and user-programmed data from the
data table to the 1771-M3 controller as directed by a block-transfer write
instruction. The 1771-M3 controller coordinates the block transfer
automatically, keeping ladder diagram programming to a minimum.
Based on information it receives from the processor, the 1771-M3
controller sends axis motion commands to the 1771-ES expander.
The 1771-ES expander closes the servo positioning loop. It commands
axis motion by generating an analog voltage for your servo drive. Every
2.4 milliseconds (ms) it updates this analog output voltage according to
motion commands from the 1771-M3 controller, discrete inputs, and
