Connection to Host Controller
This section shows examples of SERVOPACK I/O signal connection to the host controller.
3.4.1 Sequence Input Circuits
(1) Photocoupler Input Circuit
CN1 connector terminals 6 to 13 are explained below.
The sequence input circuit interface connects through a relay or open-collector transistor circuit. Select a low-
current relay if a relay is used. Otherwise, a faulty contact will result.
Note: The 24 VDC external power supply capacity must be 50 mA minimum.
The SERVOPACK's I/O circuit uses bidirectional photocoupler. Select either the sink circuit or the source cir-
cuit according to the specifications required for each machine.
Note: • The connection example in section 3.2.3 shows the connection using the sink circuit.
• The polarity for turning the input signal ON or OFF differs between the sink circuit and the source circuit.
