1 Important Notes
1.1 Gateway GATE-D1 and GATE-D2
There is today
no difference
how to integrate with GATE-D1 or GATE-D2.
Regarding other difference see (
REF A)
.
1.2 Size limitations
Currently the ABB robotic system has a size limitation 64 bytes for in and out data. This size
limitation will give that a ABB robotic system connected to a Pluto system with
more then 16 Pluto
units (or additional data areas)
there is a needs to have two (2) Pluto gateways to be able to
read data from all connected Pluto units, see chapter 2.1.
1.3 Terminal Setting
For terminal connection to the Pluto gateway, connect a terminal program to the gateway PR port
on the front panel of the unit. The connector is the same as for connection to the Pluto units and as
terminal program the Pluto Manager (
REF B
) terminal tool will work fine.
Terminal cable
Pluto programming cable ABB 2TLA020070R5600 or
Pluto USB cable ABB 2TLA020070R5800.
Terminal program
Pluto Manager terminal tool.
The following terminal setting shall be used if not using Pluto Manager terminal tool.
Baudrate 57.6
kbits
Bits 8
Stopbits 1
Parity None
1.4 Additional data
Later Pluto OS support sending additional data to the gateway. For general information about how
the additional data works read the main gateway manual (REF A). In this manual some section
with the chapters/text marked with “
Additional Data
” give some extra information.
