Key issues

What is the core difference between F88L-160 and -162?

Answer: The only difference between the two is the number of cam output channels: 3F88L-160 has 16 channels of output, while 3F88L-162 has 32 channels of output, with completely identical power supply, performance, and functionality.

Question 2: What are the key impacts of 360 and 720 resolutions on device usage?

Answer: Resolution determines control accuracy and upper limit:

360 resolution: 1 ° accuracy, supports 8 sets of programs, up to 1600r/min

720 resolution: 0.5 ° accuracy, supports 4 sets of programs, up to 800r/min

Question 3: How is the data of the cam locator saved and does it need maintenance?

Answer: The parameters and cam program are stored in EEPROM non-volatile memory, which can be erased and written 100000 times without the need for battery backup or daily maintenance.
