Converting from PCI to Ethernet Controllers

Learn how to transition from PCI-based DMC-1800/18x2 motion controllers to standalone DMC-21x3 Ethernet controllers. This guide covers hardware changes, firmware compatibility, software considerations, and network setup requirements. Engineers will understand the benefits of standalone Ethernet solutions including cost savings, space reduction, and improved reliability while addressing key technical challenges like IP configuration, data transmission, and interrupt handling.
