MJ100/110 Series MJ500/600/700 Series
The MJ100/110 Series and MJ500/600/700 Series are 1-axis compact interpolators with a modular design that are designed for use in industrial machines. The MJ100/110 Series is intended only for use with Sonys Digiruler, while the general-purpose analog input type MJ500/600/700 Series is intended for use with any linear/rotary encoder.
