Integrated Servo Motors use intelligent communications.

SmartMotor(TM) products are available with Combitronic(TM) communication protocol, which uses CAN serial port to join up to 120 servos so that any of them may read, write, or control any other SmartMotor. To accomplish this, users are only required to tag local variable or command with colon and SmartMotor's CAN address. Communication protocol will not interfere with DeviceNet or CANopen...
