Base/Abort Connector (J6)
The Base/Abort connector accepts the operate and emer-
gency stop signals from the optical operate switches and
abort switch on the base (J35 - Base Interface Connector).
If you are using custom automation, you may have separate
operate and abort switches, but these still connect to the
Base/Abort Connector (J6).

Installing the Press System Without its Machine Base
on Page 30.
Ground Detect (J2)
To activate Ground Detect connect a ground cable to J2, and
make sure the feature is activated by using the Weld menu.
Generally the Ground Detect feature is used to sense when
the horn contacts an electrically isolated anvil. Ground
Detect Input is connected to the electrically isolated an-
vil. When the horn, which is always at ground potential,
contacts the anvil, the ground detect input is activated. The
weld portion of the cycle is then terminated. The system
will not start a new cycle until the ground detect input is
deactivated.

The horn is ground and acts
as a switch closure when it
touches the fixture.

With all electrical power to the
system turned off, connect a wire
from the fixture directly to J2
using a banana clip.
Use plastic insulating washers
with the bolts used to fasten
the fixture to the base plate.
Center the washers and bolts so
the bolts will not touch the insides
of the fixture holes.
Install a plastic insulator
between the fixture
and the base plate.
