2.12 Installing add-on cards (optional)
Add-on cards are used for connecting an external device, such as a gun cleaning station, or a robot that does not have
fieldbus connectivity, to the system.
The add-on card combinations must be correct for the system to function properly. For the required add-on card com-
binations, refer to the following:
•
"Add-on card combinations for external device control" below
•
"Add-on card combinations for digital robot control" on page 44
The wiring of add-on cards is customer-specific, therefore this section gives only examples of the wiring.
Add-on cards require a separate 24 V power supply that is not delivered with the AX MIG Welder equipment.
Turn off the power source before installing add-on cards.
For instructions on removing and attaching the RCM top cover, refer to "Removing and attaching RCM top cover" on
page 31.
Tools needed
1.
Install the add-on card so that the groove on the card aligns with the tab on the add-on card slot.
Keep the add-on card straight/horizontal when installing it.
2.
Fix the add-on card to the main board with four screws (M2.5 x 12).
3.
Route the cable through a cable inlet. (For information on cable inlets, refer to "Routing cables into RCM" on
page 33.)
2.12.1 Add-on card combinations for external device control
The add-on cards for external device control allow the robot to control external devices via the fieldbus. An external
device is connected to RCM with one or two digital IO (input/output) add-on cards.
