The use of the Pulse Train technology to position drives is primarily used in Asia and in the USA. Its origins lie in the
methods for driving stepper motors. The wide acceptance and easy use of the technology resulted in its application to higher
power sectors of drive technology. The interface using Pulse Train technology is nowadays also applied to servoamplifiers
and frequency converters. The user can employ a consistent software and hardware interface, from micro-steppers up to
highpowered servo-drives.
