ACS PDIcl Pulse Direction Drive Interface
ACS PDIcl connects third-party pulse/direction stepper or servo drives to an ACS SPiiPlus EtherCAT control system. It produces position commands and accepts configured encoder feedback for verification or closed-loop operation. It is an interface module, so external drives still supply motor power and perform their assigned drive functions.

Review Summary
Consider PDIcl when a machine needs to retain suitable pulse/direction drives while adding them to an ACS motion architecture with feedback. Its distinction from the open-loop PDMnt is the feedback path. Confirm the absolute-encoder channel count on the exact order: the current product-page summary and the linked datasheet do not describe that maximum identically.
