Firmware:
- D Style and M Style refer to the connection type.
- Firmware for the standard version uses the same firmware for CANopen.
- Profibus is hardware specific, and therefore, do not attempt to install Profibus firmware onto non-Profibus motor.
- Hardware used in CANopen and Devicenet is the same, and therefore, protocol preference is by the firmware selection.

Moog Animatics SmartMotor™is capable of being a master controller to both other SmartMotors and other devices. As a result, often times the motors become a replacement to PLC’s or other controllers in a system.
At a minimum, when the SmartMotor™ is added to an existing system as an extension to a machine design, it may only require minimal hand shaking with the main controller while maintaining its own subsystem control independently.
So what’s in it for you? Minimal handshaking means easy programming, minimal wiring, and reduced costs with maximum capabilities added for the entire system. A few examples of real applications using SmartMotor™ servos are below, testaments to success using SmartMotor™ technology.
