Step 10. Connect the rail ports using a Rail I/O Interconnect Cable
(M/N 45C5), which is provided with the Rail Interface
module (1SC4000). If you are using the Ready Relay, see
section 3.5.5 for connection information.
Step 11. Turn on power to the Remote Drive Interface Head.
Step 12. Verify the installation by connecting the programming
terminal to the system and running the AutoMax
Programming Executive software.
Stop all application programs that may be running.
Use the I/O MONITOR function. Enter the slot number of
the master Remote I/O module, the Remote I/O drop
number (1Ć7), the port number (0Ć3) of the drive, and the
drive control register number (0 for the GPĆ2000). The
value displayed should reflect the status of the drive.
3.5.5 Remote I/O Network EmergencyĆStop
Considerations
WARNING
THE USER MUST PROVIDE AN EXTERNAL, HARDWIRED EMERGENCY STOP
CIRCUIT OUTSIDE OF THE CONTROLLER CIRCUITRY. THIS CIRCUIT MUST
DISABLE THE SYSTEM IN CASE OF IMPROPER OPERATION. UNCONTROLLED
MACHINE OPERATION MAY RESULT IF THIS PROCEDURE IS NOT FOLLOWED.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS PRECAUTION COULD RESULT IN BODILY INJURY.
The Remote I/O network is designed so that network cable loss or a
slave Remote I/O or Shark Interface module failure results in outputs
on the affected racks being turned off. In the case of a master
Remote I/O module failure, all outputs on all Remote I/O network
drops will be turned off.
A hardĆwired EĆStop (Emergency Stop) circuit must be used either on
the incoming AĆC power lines to the master rack or on the master
rack and each individual slave rack which may need to be shut down
independently of the entire network.
A set of normally open contacts from the Ready Relay are provided
on the terminal strip of both the Remote I/O Head and the Remote
Drive Interface Head. The contacts open whenever a problem is
detected in the onĆboard microprocessor. Figure 3.24 shows the
composition of the relay. These contacts should be used in an EĆstop
(emergency stop) circuit to remove power from the outputs in case of
emergency. Figure 3.25 shows atypical field wiring circuit using the
contacts in an EĆstop sequence. Connections to the Ready terminals
should be made using 14 AWG wire.
