System position
Unknown: Evidence boundary
Omron lists R88D-KN08H-ML2 as a G5 AC servo drive with built-in MECHATROLINK-II communications for a 750 W motor.
The drive uses single-phase or three-phase 200 to 240 VAC main-circuit input.
The drive supports position, speed, and torque control modes.
The drive sits between the MECHATROLINK-II controller and the matched servo motor in the documented system.
The drive converts network motion commands into controlled electrical output for the motor.
Unknown: The installed controller configuration, motor pairing, firmware, and machine load are not established by the captured sources.
