Recently, the weapon systems are more and more complex and the demands for handling and maintaining these complex systems effectively are increased. For this reason, industrial control network had been developed for many years and the needs for the development of a totally networked automation environment are raised. To meet these requirements, networked motion control systems tend more and more to replace the traditional solutions. In this paper, the XY platform motion control system employing RTEX (Real Time Express) network which is one of the Ethernet based vender-oriented industrial networks is tackled. The network motion controller which generates motion profile and outputs the pulse train is implemented and is applied to XY platform. As results, it is shown that the proposed network motion controller works properly to control the XY platform and monitors the system easily through network.
