Intelligent Motion Systems Panther LE2 High Performance Microstepping Motor Controller with LE2 Option
Comes with what you see in the pictures. If you don't see it, you probably wont get it.
Specifications are from IMS and may vary slightly due to upgrades, options, or revisions this unit may or may not have.
The unit was removed from a system we scrapped. The unit powers up but I don't have the expertise to test it further.
The Unit's Information is as Follows:
Model Number: LE2 (option LE2 is a Built-in RS232 to RS422/R485 Converter)

Incorporated into the PANTHER LI & LE drivers are proprietary circuits that minimize ripple current while maintaining a 20 kHz chopping rate. This prevents additional motor heating that is common with drivers requiring higher chopping rates. Now low inductance step motors can be used to improve high speed performance and system efficiency.
PANTHER LI & LE built-in indexers allow the user, via a serial link, to program parameters such as acceleration/deceleration ramps, velocity, position, resolution and drive current to form simple or complex motions.
Programs can be executed by sending single commands, or can be stored in the on-board nonvolatile memory which can then be executed on power-up or by discrete user inputs.
The indexer has a variety of built-in functions. Some of which include limit switches and a homing algorithm, as well as general purpose inputs and outputs that can be used to detect switch closures and to activate solenoids and other external devices.
The PANTHER LE, with its built-in encoder option (not sure if it has this), can be used to enhance system performance by adding complex functions such as position verification, maintenance and stall detection. These functions can be of particular importance with systems requiring closed loop control to track movement and final position.
