Basic EMC question

Posted by exeric1

I've been doing some reading about EMC and understand the push behind
it was to create a standard control system that isn't hardware
dependent. The big question: is the control board function
implemented in software on the PC? That would explain the big deal
about an operating system that can output commands in real time - I
understand that standard windows can't hack it and Unix,Windows NT
and Linux can. My other related question is this: Why is it so
important to have a non-proprietary control system? It seems you will
still need a separate outboard power supply and drivers that WILL be
proprietary for each servo/stepper installation. I don't get it. I'm
not being a smart ass, I'm just learning. If it could ALL be
implemented inside the PC including power supply for the drivers and
drivers themselves then it would make sense to me.
