The basic design of the Commander offers OEMs the convenience of a standard controller and the technology of a fully engineered controller. It exhibits the best qualities of both types of controllers:

• Faster path-to-market
• Flexible design adaptable to a wide range of applications
• No compromise on capabilities and processing speed
• Scalable from prototype to production without software changes
• Intuitive to use
• Cost-effective design

These functions can be used with simple commands. The intelligent design philosophy reduces the burden on the CPU. Commander is a robust and powerful controller with numerous operating capabilities.
