When using this product for the first time, make sure to avoid mistakes and incorrect wiring by referring to
the procedure below.
In this section, explains how to start up especially for RCON controller. Follow an instruction manual (DVD)
for each device for how to link to other devices, controllers and actuators that are linked in the network.
RCON-
EtherNet Type
Check of Packed Items
or
Are all the delivered items present?
RCON-
↓Yes
PROFINET IO Type
Assembling RCON (Linking up Units) * Refer to RCON 24V/200V Driver Unit First Step Guide (ME0383/ME0397)
Join the units to use such as the gateway unit, driver unit, extension unit and so on.
↓
Installation and Wiring
* Refer to [Installation and Noise Elimination] in this first step guide
Install the controller and actuator and perform wiring according.
↓
Initial Settings (Setup of Gateway) * Gateway parameter setting tool is required
Have the settings done for the axis number setting, mode settings, field network communication speed, node addresses
(station numbers) and so on to suit to the system.
↓
Initial Settings (Setup of Driver Units and Extension Units) * RC PC software is required
Remarks
Establish the parameter settings for each controller.
Please prepare separately
↓
PLC (Master Unit) Baud Rate * Refer to PLC Instruction Manual.
Have the settings established for the PLC node addresses (station
numbers) and the baud rate.

Power Supply
1) Supply the power to PLC (master unit).
2) In case of using the extension units, turn the power on for SCON connected to the extension units.
3) Supply the power to RCON.

PROFIBUS-DP
↓
(Type A: EN5017)
Communication Establishment Check
• In case of using the extension units, turn the power on for SCON
connected to the extension units.
* Refer to "Troubleshooting" in this first step guide
• Confirm that communication is established also on PLC (master unit).
* Refer to PLC Instruction Manual.
RCON PROFIBUS-DP Type
↓Yes
Check on Safety Circuit
Confirm that the stop circuit (drive source cutoff circuit) works in normal conditions.
↓Yes
Now, it is succeeded to establish communication and ready for operation.
Move on to the system operation check and adjustment.
Operation Mode Selected
Contents
The target position, speed, acceleration/deceleration and pressing current limit can be
indicated with inputting a number. Monitoring of not only the current position, but also
the current speed and indicated current are available.
The target position can be indicated directly by inputting a value. Also, monitoring of the
current position is available in 0.01mm unit.
Those other than the target position are to be indicated in the position table, and the
setting can be done for 128 points at maximum.
The 128 points of position data can be registered at the maximum and is able to stop at
the registered positions. Also, monitoring of the current position is available in 0.01mm
unit.
This is the operation mode of the position data of 128 points at maximum set in the
position table. The monitoring of the current position is not available.
This mode is that the transferred data is reduced from Positioner 1 Mode.
This is the operation mode of the position data of 128 points at maximum set in the
position table. The monitoring of the current position is not available.
This is the mode to control with the minimized number of signals to perform the
positioning operation by reducing the amount of sent and received data from Positioner
2 Mode.
This is the operation mode of the position data of 16 points at maximum set in the
position table.
It is a mode that enabled to monitor the current position in 0.1mm unit by reducing the
number of position table from Positioner 2 Mode.

Important Check Item
• Is frame ground (FG) connected?
• Has the noise countermeasure been taken?
← Yes
Important Check Item
• Is the control sequence applicable for
the continuous mode and the system?
Check the status of LED lamps to see the

cause of the error to have an appropriate
counteraction. Do the whole process from
the start if the cause of the error is not
clear.
No →
Check the circuit.
Troubleshooting (LED Display)
On RCON Gateway Unit, there are the monitor LEDs for the field network and communication.
You can confirm the communication establishment and also communication errors on these LEDs.
Refer to "Names for Each Part" for the position and name of each LED lamp.
