    The SD card shipped with all systems is factory-configured and installed by Adept. The SD card stores the eV+ operating system, application programs, data files, and Adept licenses. Only the SD card supplied by Adept will work with the Adept SmartController EX motion con- troller.
  • Page 20 CAUTION: Do not remove the SD card when power is connected to the controller. Removing an SD Card To remove an SD card from a Adept SmartController EX motion controller: 1. Make sure that the controller is disconnected from its power source. 2. Locate the SD compartment (see the following figure).

  • Page 21: Connecting Power

    Chapter 2: Installation Connecting Power The Adept SmartController EX motion controller and sDIO expansion module require filtered 24 VDC power. NOTE: Users must provide their own power supply. Make sure the power cables and power supply conform to the specifications that follow.
  • Page 22 NOTE: The power requirements for the user-supplied power supply will vary depending on the configuration of the Adept SmartController EX motion controller and connected devices. A mini- mum configuration of the controller, front panel, and pendant will require 2 A at 24 VDC. How- ever, a 24 V, 5 A power supply is recommended to allow for additional current draw from connected devices, such as external IEEE 1394 devices and digital I/O loads.
  • Page 23 Chapter 2: Installation NOTE: The power switch on the Adept SmartController EX motion controller will shut down just the controller. The two connectors, XDC1 and XDC2, are always connected to each other, so a sec- ondary device will maintain power after the controller is shut down.
