Module Installation

The following sections describe how to install the Remote I/O

module, the Shark Interface module, Remote I/O Head, and Remote

Drive Interface Head.
To reduce the possibility of electrical noise interfering with the proper

operation of the control system, exercise care when installing the

wiring from the system to the external devices. For more detailed

recommendations, refer to IEEE 518.

3.5.1

Installing the Remote I/O Module (M/N 57C416)

Use the following procedure to install the Remote I/O module:
Step 1.

Stop any application tasks that may be running.

DANGER

THIS EQUIPMENT IS AT LINE VOLTAGE WHEN AĆC POWER IS CONNECTED.

DISCONNECT AND LOCK OUT ALL UNGROUNDED CONDUCTORS OF THE AĆC

POWER LINE. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT

IN SEVERE BODILY INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.

Step 2.

Turn off power to the rack. All power to the rack as well as

all power to the wiring leading to the rack should be off.

For rack mounting and power supply wiring information,

refer to the AutoMax Power Supply and Racks manual,

J2Ć3008.

Step 3.

Take the module out of its shipping container. Take it out of

the antiĆstatic bag, being careful not to touch the

connectors on the back of the module.

Step 4.

Insert the module into the desired slot in the rack, making

sure it is wellĆseated in the rack. The module may reside in

any slot in the rack. Use a screwdriver to secure the

module into the rack.

Step 5.

Set the drop number of the Remote I/O module using the

two thumbwheel switches on the module faceplate. The

upper switch is the most significant digit and the lower

switch is the least significant digit.
The drop number settings are recognized only at power

up. Therefore, make sure each drop on the network has a

unique drop number before power is applied. If more than

one drop is given the same drop number, transmission

collisions will occur on the line.
Drop number 00" indicates the module is a network's

master drop. Drop numbers 01 through 07, inclusive,

indicate the module is a slave drop. All other switch

settings are invalid.

Step 6.

Connect the drop cable (M/N 57C381 if you have a coaxial

cable network, M/N 57C366 if you have a fiberĆoptic

network) to the 9Ćpin connector on the module faceplate.

Note that the end of the cable which connects to the

faceplate is labeled COMM."

Step 7.

Turn on power to the rack. An internal diagnostic routine is

automatically executed by the module. If an error is
