The ZETA6104 is a 4A stand-alone, single-axis microstepping drive/controller system which combines all the power and reliability of the 6000 family of motion controllers and the performance of the ZETA series microstepper drives into one convenient package. All of the I/O points, RS232C/RS485 control, operator interface options and following capabilities for single-axis applications are included. The ZETA6000 microstepper drive/controllers have a resolution of 50,800 steps/rev and can perform phase shifts, electronic gearbox, and flying cutoff functionality with ease. The ZETA6000 Series package was made for easy and reliable installation - the connections are on removable screw terminals and a standard 50-pin header allowing simple installation and cable routing without having to cut off and reattach a connector.

The ZETA6000 Series is designed to solve single-axis applications cleanly, completely, and for a low cost. For multiple-axis applications, up to 99 ZETA6000 Series can be daisy chained (32 ZETA6000 Series can be multi-dropped using RS-485) to work together. In order to speed your application development, the ZETA6000 Series comes as standard with Motion Architect™, a Microsoft® Windows™-based development package. Motion Architect™ contains many tools which allow you to easily create and implement motion programs. The ZETA6000 Series is also compatible with the DDE6000 Server software package. The ZETA6000 Series uses the 6000 Series command language. This popular language is powerful enough to implement complex motion control applications and simple enough to not overwhelm the novice programmer. The ZETA6000 Series is your single-axis solution.
