• Use raised head screws M5x8, in order to connect the mounting brackets (1) of the CP application module Measuring, at first loosely, with the cross profiles (2) of the CP Factory basic module. • After setting all raised head screws, you can still move the CP application module to the position required.
D-Sub-interface for analogue signals (option – not available at all CP application modules) The CP application module produces two analogue output signals with the distance sensors. These are set on the analogue terminal and have to be connected with the analogue inputs of the CP Factory basic module: •...
Commissioning 7.4.6 Pneumatic connection from application modules to CP Factory basic module The pneumatic connection is based on the principle of the following sketch. The application module is connected from the valve (terminal) to the shut-off valve (3) on the conveyor belt.
CP-Factory System can be operated. Own operating concepts or external controls are also possible. If the application module is mounted on a CP Lab or a CP Factory basic module, the general operation for this is described in the manuals of the CP Lab or CP Factory system. All application-specific information is described in this manual for the application module.
