FSCUT4000E User Manual Chapter 3 Installation 3.1 Installation Steps 3.1.1 Step 1 Install BMC228X Control Card Power off the host. Open the host case, select a free PCIE slot, and use a screwdriver to remove its slat. Insert BMC228X into the slot. The installation is shown in 2.1.2.
The driver installation is complete, if "BMC228X DMA" is displayed as shown. 3.1.3 Step 3 Connect the slave Use CAT5E or above standard network cable ( Friendess network cable recommended) to connect the slave. The wiring diagrams of BLT series cutting head and other cutting heads are shown in section 1.2.
FSCUT4000E User Manual Chapter 4 Precautions 4.1 Wiring Precautions 4.1.1 Drag Chain Wiring When releasing the 4-pin cable from the coil, it is necessary to prevent the cable from twisting (the cable must be released along the tangential direction) and the cable must be laid straight.
Page 37
FSCUT4000E User Manual The cables should be installed according to the weight and size of the cables. The larger diameter and heavier cables should be placed outside; the smaller diameter and lighter cables should be placed inside. The cables can also be placed from the inside to the outside descendingly by size.
FSCUT4000E User Manual If the cable does not run smoothly, check whether it is twisted along the longitudinal axis during operation. The cable should slowly rotate at a certain fixed point until it runs freely. 10) Given the size of cables and drag chains, their length characteristics vary considerably.
Page 39
Cables are in parallel and not crossed, and the harnesses should be straight and leveled. If using the cables from Friendess, choose the appropriate cable according to the layout space, and do not pile up and circle it.
FSCUT4000E User Manual 4.1.3 Assembly Requirements Handle with care. Please wear anti-static gloves or touch a grounded metal object to prevent static electricity from damaging the motion control card before touching the control card circuit or inserting/pulling the control card.
