1-3-1 DRCX controller

1. Status Display Lamp
This lamp indicates the operating status of the robot and controller.
Refer to "15-1-3 LED display" for information on controller status and the matching LED
display.
2. Escape Switch (ESC switch)
Hold down this switch when connecting or disconnecting the TPB from the DRCX controller.
(See "4-1 Connecting and Disconnecting the TPB.")
3. TPB Connector
This is used to connect the TPB or DPB programming box, or the RS-232C terminal of a PC
(personal computer).
4. COM Connector
This is used to connect a network system when the optional network card is installed. (This is
covered when the option is not in use.)
5. Robot I/O Connector
This is used for input and output from robot peripheral devices such as resolver, origin sensor
and brake signals.
6. I/O Connector
This is used to connect external equipment such as a PLC.
7. BAT Connector (1, 2)
This is the connector for the absolute battery.
8. Motor Connector (X, Y)
This is the power line connector for the servo motor.
9. Regenerative Unit Connector (RGEN connector)
Some types of robots require connection to a regenerative unit. In such cases, use this to con-
nect the regenerative unit (RGU-2).
10. Terminal Block
ACIN1(PWR) (L, N,
This is the connector for supplying AC power to the DRCX controller. The ground terminal
must be properly grounded to prevent electrical shock to the human body and to maintain
equipment reliability.
NC
No connection. Do not use.
T1, T2
These are input power voltage switching terminals. When an input power voltage of AC100 to
115V is used, short the T1 and T2 terminals. When an input power voltage of AC200 to 230V
is used, leave the T1 and T2 terminals open.
The models DRCX-1020, DRCX-2010 and DRCX-2020 are specifically designed to operate
on AC200 to 230V, so always leave the T1 and T2 terminals open.
