KINGSTAR Soft Motion provides all the benefits of a software solution to motion control in an automatically configured EtherCAT environment with “plug-and-play” compatibility. With the highest quality and performance of pre-integrated and pre-tested motion libraries, KINGSTAR delivers motion control at half the cost of traditional hardware platforms. Deliver Software-Only Motion Control and Positioning Systems Quickly and Affordably KINGSTAR Soft Motion is an open and standards-based, software-only solution that streamlines motor control and automation. Soft Motion runs directly on the PC, uses the NIC card for I/O, and uses the powerful EtherCAT protocol to free you from the shackles of proprietary and costly hardware. With Soft Motion, motion control engineers can design, develop and integrate PC-based machine controllers in a “plug-and-play” environment for consolidated, inexpensive and scalable motion and vision control.

POSTED 10/15/2015
Introduction
This document lists supported Ethernet adapters and controllers for use with KINGSTAR products (out- of-the box).
Note: In the tables that follow, the KINGSTAR version listed is the first version that supported each device. All future versions of the device are supported, unless the status is marked as deprecated.
KINGSTAR Soft Motion
Status legend:
| Status | Description |
 |
This tested adaptor or controller works with KINGSTAR Soft Motion. |
 |
This adaptor or controller was tested using KINGSTAR Soft Motion. The manufacturer has listed this chipset as End-Of-Life, and it will likely be deprecated in a future release of KINGSTAR. |
 |
Althought this adaptor or controller was not tested with KINGSTAR Soft Motion, it should work correctly. |
