Today, automation technology is more and more becoming linked to drive technology. This normally involves programmable logic controls being used as primary control systems. In addition to the possibility of controlling drive amplifiers via digital and analog inputs and outputs, the use of a field bus even provides the possibility of entering and reading out the process data and parameters directly on the drive amplifier.
