DeviceNet Gateway
(3) Linking ERC2-SE controllers via SIO communication
For details, refer to the operation manual for your ERC2-SE controller.
Use 4-way junctions to link the controllers as shown below.
The power-supply & I/O cable and network connection cable (including a 4-way junction or e-CON
connectors) are standard accessories of each ERC2-SE controller.
Caution
(1) If the total communication cable length is 10 m or longer and a communication error occurs
because of difficulty establishing successful communication, connect a terminal resistor to the last
axis.
(2) If each actuator uses a separate power supply, use a same ground 0 [V].
(3) The power supply of the Gateway Unit and the control power supply of each ERC2 controller
must share a common ground 0 V.
(4) Connect the shield line to the FG terminal for each axis.
(5) If the total link cable length exceeds 30 m, use a cable with a wire size of AWG22 or greater.
