Adept SmartController CX
The SmartController is the foundation of Adept’s family of high-performance distributed
motion and vision controllers. The SmartController is designed for use with:
• Adept Quattro robots
• Adept Cobra s-series robots
• Adept Viper s-series robots
• Adept Python linear modules
• Adept MotionBlox-10
• Adept sMI6 (SmartMotion)
The Adept SmartController CX supports an integrated vision option and a conveyor
tracking option, as well as other options. It offers scalability and support for IEEE
1394-based digital I/O and general motion expansion modules. The IEEE 1394 interface is
the backbone of the Adept SmartServo distributed servo network, which supports Adept
products. The controller is commonly programmed through its Fast Ethernet port, which
can be on a distributed network or directly connected to a PC for programming.
