  • Page 7 AMPLIFIER ENABLE (WATCHDOG) RELAY OUTPUT An internal relay may be used to enable external amplifiers when the controller has powered up correctly and the system and application software are ready. The amplifier enable is a single pole solid state relay with a normally open “contact”. The enable relay contact will be open circuit if there is no power on the controller OR an axis Enable error exists OR the user program sets it open with the WDOG=OFF command.
  • Page 8 DISPLAY IP Address / Run / Error code (see table below) The IP address and subnet mask of the MC6N is shown on the LCD display for a few seconds after power-up. The factory default IP address is 192.168.0.250. This can be changed using EtherCAT Communications active the IP_ADDRESS command via the Motion Perfect software toolor SD Card.
  • Page 9 This is a 5 way 3.5mm pitch connector. The connector is used both to provide the 24 Volt power to CAN 0V the MC6N CAN circuit and provide connections for I/O expansion via Trio’s CAN I/O expanders. A 24V dc, Class 2 transformer or power source should be used.
