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
