Wireless with M12 connectors.
The new wireless MAC00-FZ4 module is based on the established IEEE 802.15.4 standard with a special high-speed serial communications and the option to implement other protocols, like ZigBee, on top to realize true mesh networking at low transmission power.
The module makes it possible to have a fast direct point-to-point connection to the motor and to switch between a large number of motors. Used in this way, the module effectively replaces a serial cable.
Another way to use the same module is as a node in a larger network, which will require some software work, but can be used to build very large and robust mesh networks, with automatic route discovery and self-healing characteristics.
