Handling Fiber Optic Cables - Fagor DDS Series Hardware Manual

Handling fiber optic cables

FAGOR supplies the fiber optic cables with its terminals protected with a hood.
Remove the terminal protecting hood before connecting any of these cables.
Either to remove the terminal protecting hood or to connect and disconnect
the cable, the cable must always be held by the terminal, never pull at the cable
because it could get damaged. See figure:

Handling fiber optic cables.
Transmission speed selection
From version 06.05 on, the drive may have a SERCOS board capable of
transmitting data at 2, 4, 8 or 16 MBd.
NOTE. This board is only compatible with software version 06.05 and later.
See chapter 13. COMPATIBILITY .
In this data transmission, each drive can receive and transmit 8 IDns
(SERCOS identifiers) or 16 Words through the fast channel.
The communication speed between all the drives being governed by the CNC
in the SERCOS ring is selected by hardware using the "BOOT" button on top
of the SERCOS board connector. See figure F.
NOTE. Consequently, the serial connection will no longer be necessary to
select the transmission speed.
The parameter associated with the communication speed selection of the
SERCOS ring is QP11 and every time a speed is selected, this parameter is
associated the corresponding value.
See table T. H8/4 that shows the possible transmission speeds that will be
displayed at the drive and chapter 13 of the "man_dds_soft.pdf" manual to
know the meaning of parameter QP11
