You can use any type of RS-232 or Ethernet controller with the Raspberry Pi.  For example motorAcs supports the ACS MCB-4B serial controller, and Galil supports the Ethernet Galil controllers.

Hi, all. I have 1 question.

I want to study EPICS and motor control, so I’ll make a small independent control system with raspberry pi B3 Model.

What kind of motor module should I use? motorPI is for raspberry pi?

Thanks for your help.

Best and Regards,

Baeg
