The Motion Programming Interface (MPI) defines a set of object-oriented, C-language functions and data types that you can use to develop motion control applications. The MPI is designed to be independent of the motion controller hardware used, as well as the platform (operating system & compiler) on which the motion control application is built. To support the MPI, a platform must be 32-bit (e.g. Windows NT). Most 32-bit platforms are capable of multi-threading and multi-tasking, and the MPI has built-in features that simplify the design and development of these types of applications.
