Connecting an Adept SmartVision EX to a SmartController
The 24 VDC can be obtained from a SmartController if you are connecting the Adept SmartVision
EX to one. The total current, used by both the Adept SmartController and the Adept SmartVision
EX, as well as any peripherals attached to them, must stay within the limits of your 24 VDC power
supply.
The 24 VDC power cable is user-supplied.
1. Connect a 24 VDC cable from XDC1 or XDC2 on the controller (whichever is not used) to
the 24 VDC plug on the Adept SmartVision EX.
2. Follow the instructions in
power cable shielding to both the controller and the Adept SmartVision EX.
If your system has sDIO or sMI6, these need to be placed between the Adept
SmartController and the Adept SmartVision EX unit, so the power can be daisy-chained.
The Adept SmartVision EX has only one 24 VDC plug. The other units have two.
If you are connecting peripherals to the Adept SmartVision EX, you may need to run a
dedicated 24 VDC cable to the Adept SmartVision EX, rather than tapping power from the
controller. Make sure you are not exceeding the current capacity of the controller 24 VDC
plug or your power supply.
