1. Features
The DeviceNet system is a system used to connect the robot controller or scattered input/output
modules, etc., with dedicated cables, and to control these modules from the master module.
The DeviceNet system allows wiring to be reduced.
Slave module
Controlled by the master module in the DeviceNet
system.
The robot controller corresponds to this.
DeviceNet is a registered trademark of ODvA (Open DeviceNet vendor Association).
NOTE
The dedicated input of sTD.DIO connector provided on the YRC controllers will be disabled
except for an interlock signal (DI 11). When the Board condition (external 24v monitor control)
of system parameters is set invalid, the interlock signal (DI 11) will also be disabled.
[Wiring saving]
One dedicated cable (5-wire) is used to connect the robot controller and PLC. This allows the
entire system wiring to be reduced.
[Emulated serialization on parallel DIO]
By making the robot controller's internal settings without using a robot program, the various
I/O devices, such as the sensors and relays mounted on the robot controller's parallel I/O can be
controlled from the PLC as if they were DeviceNet system I/O devices.
CAUTION
AN EMERGENCY sTOP TERMINAL FOR HARDWIRE Is PROvIDED IN sAFETY
CONNECTOR ON THE ROBOT CONTROLLER.
IN THE YRC CONTROLLER, WHEN THE DEvICENET sYsTEM Is UsED WHILE sTD.
DIO Is NOT UsED (ExTERNAL DC 24v POWER sUPPLY Is NOT UsED), THE BOARD
CONDITION (ExTERNAL 24v MONITOR CONTROL) OF sYsTEM PARAMETERs MUsT
BE sET INvALID. IF IT Is LEFT vALID, THE sTD. DIO INTERLOCk sIGNAL Is
ENABLED CAUsING AN ERROR IN THE ROBOT OPERATION COMMANDs.
Master module
Controls the entire DeviceNet system.
The PLC master module corresponds to this.
Slave module
Controlled by the master module
in the DeviceNet system.
