Editing IONI device model comparison

The main difference between IONI and IONI Pro is that Pro model will get more advanced functions as downloadable upgrades. 

;Available exclusive IONI Pro features:

*SinCos 1 Vp-p encoder support
*Motor torque cogging & ripple compensation
*Notch filter for advanced vibration damping
*Power consumption limit (useful with switch mode power supplies)
*[[Homing]] function and soft travel limits that work in all [[control modes]], not just position control mode
*Torque mode effects: damping, friction and inertia (useful in simulator applications)
*[[SimuCUBE]] simulator motherboard support

;The planned IONI Pro features are:

*Support for EtherCAT field bus (through separate EtherCAT to [[SimpleMotion V2]] bridge device)
*True [[dual-loop feedback position control]]
*Serial encoder support (TBD)

The planned features are implemented as user downlodable firmware. Firmware upgrades are free.
