Chapter 2 - Installation
• PENDANT: connector for attaching the Manual Control Pendant (MCP) to the
front panel. In order to enable High Power, either the MCP or the supplied
pendant jumper plug must be connected.
Installing the External Front Panel (VFP)
The VFP can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. See Figure 6-7 on page 88
for dimensions. Since the back of the VFP is open, make sure that it is securely mounted
and that electronic components on the back side of the panel are protected from contact by
users or other equipment. Mount the VFP in the same enclosure as the controller, or in a
separate, protected enclosure. See Table 2-2 for enclosure requirements. See Figure 2-9 as
you follow the procedure below.
1. Turn off the Adept MV controller power switch.
2. Remove the FP/MCP bypass plug from the FP/MCP connector on the SIO
module.
3. Locate the 2-meter Front Panel cable that comes with the VFP. Plug one end into
the FP/MCP connector on the SIO module. Plug the other end into the 26-pin
D-Sub connector on the back of the VFP. Tighten the thumbscrews on both
connectors.
4. If you are not using an MCP, install the MCP bypass plug in the MCP connector of
the VFP. If you are using an MCP, refer to page 35.
