INTRODUCTION ACR7000 Controller - Overview The ACR7000 Controller, part of the ACR7000 family, is a multi-axis motion controller. Setup and programming are accomplished using the AcroBASIC language within the Parker Motion Manager programming environment. Product Description The ACR7000 Controller shares the control capability and ACROBasic programming language with the ACR7000 family of controllers and integrated drive products.
Confirm that you have received all items in the table below. If you are missing an item, call the factory. For contact information, see Contact Information for Technical Assistance at the beginning of this guide. The following items ship with the ACR7000 Controller. The connectors are inserted in the controller during shipment and are not packaged separately.
Therefore, it is recommended that the product be mounted in a suitable enclosure. For proper cooling, the ACR7000 must be installed so that the cooling vents allow for vertical air flow. Figure 3 on page 17 shows the mounting orientation, as well as the minimum top, bottom, and side installation clearances.
MECHANICAL INSTALLATION Mounting Orientation The ACR7000 should be mounted to a vertical surface in the orientation shown below to allow for vertical air flow through the cooling vents on the top and bottom of the product Consult factory to review applications where vertical mounting is not possible.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION Installation Safety Requirements The ACR7000 Controller has been shown to meet the CE requirements for Electromagnetic Compatibility (IEC 61800-3 ed2.0 per 204/108/EC) when installed, operated and maintained as described in the product User Guide. As a rule, it is recommended that the ACR7xC be installed in an enclosure to protect it from atmospheric contaminants and to prevent operator access while power is applied.
This section details the components and configuration necessary for electrical installation of the ACR7000 Controller. Installation of a motion control system requires an ACR7000, one or more compatible drive and motor 24VDC Power Supplier and access to a computer. Refer to the following figure for a diagram of this system.

The ACR7000 controllers employ a single connector that handles both the encoder and drive signals—the Axis connector. Depending on the configuration of the ACR7000 controller, there are four or eight axis connectors on the front panel. They are labeled AXIS 0 through AXIS 7. The axis connector is a 26-pin, female D-sub, high- density connector.
Each Axis (and Auxiliary Encoder) connector has a nominal +5 VDC power source to aid application installations. The power source typically is used to power: • An external encoder • Optical inputs and/or outputs between the ACR7000 and an external drive Description Units Continuous current, +5V Trip current, +5V...

Overview The ACR7000 Controller communicates in a standard Ethernet network, thereby providing a direct link for sending commands through the Parker Motion Manager software installed on a PC. This chapter describes how to establish the standard Ethernet connection. The controllers have a dual-stack, standard RJ-45 connector, which provides two communications ports. The two ports act as a hub, with a single IP address.

BASIC OPERATION Basic Operation The ACR7000 Controller controllers are programmable products that support a wide array or servo and stepper drives. Other motion control functions such as limit and home switches, programming units and axis scaling are also configurable. The controller is delivered as a blank slate and the user will need to tailor the settings to meet the needs of each application.
