Page 5: Information To User (47Cfr Section 15.105)
Information to user (47CFR section 15.21) The user is cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Renishaw plc or an authorised representative could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. - Page 6 Installation category II The UCC MMI is isolated from ac power by disconnection of the IEC mains connector from the supplied PSU. If any additional means of isolation is required, it must be specified and fitted by the machine manufacturer or installer of the product. The isolator / disconnection device must be sited within easy reach of the operator and comply with any applicable national wiring regulations for the country of installation.

Page 8: General Wiring Standards
All signal cables MUST be screened and all cable screens should be connected electrically to the cable connector's metal shells. Cable screens should only be connected to the protective earth (via the connector shell) at the UCC MMI end, and not directly connected to the CMM protective earth. - Page 9 Renishaw 2-wire kinematic touch-trigger probes are supported. The UCC MMI is housed in a 1U 19 inch rack-mountable enclosure. It is coupled to the CMM host computer by a USB 1.1 link and to the CMM by external cable interface connectors. A rack mounting kit is available as an optional extra.

I/O connections to limit switches, air pressure and other digital inputs and outputs TTP interface The UCC MMI unit incorporates the circuitry and software necessary to interface with the Renishaw TP20, TP1, TP2 and TP6 probes. Power supply unit The UCC MMI requires an external 24 Vdc 2.5 A power supply. -
Page 11: Front Panel Led Displays
During system file downloading, the 'power on' LED is on and the 'error' LED is slowly flashing. If the system file download fails then the 'power on', 'error' and 'system ready' (flashing) LEDs will be on. In this condition, the UCC MMI waits for a system restart. - Page 12 UCC MMI installation guide http://www.renishaw.com Probe seated LED When the probe is not deflected the 'probe seated' LED is on. When the probe is deflected the 'probe seated' LED is off. Issued 11 2017...

Page 16: Cmm Readhead Input Connections
The X, Y and Zaxis measuring scale readhead input connectors are highdensity 15way ‘D' sockets. The X, Y and Z-axis scale readheads of the CMM must be connected to the relevant socket on the rear panel of the UCC MMI enclosure. Suggestion: Label all readhead connectors to avoid cross connection if removed and replaced in the future. - Page 17 Screen * The UCC MMI is capable of supporting both single and dual limit-switch RG22 readheads. The electronic circuits can interface either type without any intervention but the correct type must be set in the machine ini file. If dual limit types are fitted pin 11 functions as the second limit switch.

Page 19: Switched Outputs
Switched outputs The UCC MMI has the following uncommitted switched output. Pin 6 is the uncommitted output available on the UCC MMI I/O connector. The UCC MMI does not directly control the operation of this output, as it is controlled from the application software package via ‘command 318, Write to controller port'. The output is pulled up to the 24 V rail by a 20 kΩ resistor when inactive, and will be pulled down to the 24 V return line via an NPN transistor when activated. There is an excess voltage protective diode fitted internally to the controller. This output is suitable for driving inputs in the range 5 V to 24 V. -
Page 20: Usb Connection
The UCC MMI uses the USB1.1 specification communication link. A 5 m USB cable is provided for this link as part of the UCC MMI kit. Other lengths may be used; the maximum being 5 m which is governed by the generic specification for USB connections. -
