(2) Ultra-compact size
Gateway units/driver units have an ultra-compact size of width 30 mm/22.6 mm x height 115
mm x depth 95 mm.
The smallest combination with 16 axes connected has width 223.4 mm x height 115 mm x depth
95 mm.
This contributes to control panel miniaturization.
(3) High performance
Adopts total frame communication for a communication cycle time within 4 ms even with 16
axes connected. This is the same even if SCON is connected via an extension unit. (except
when EC connection unit is connected)
A high-heat dissipation structure is adopted to support ambient temperatures up to 55°C.
Duty cycle is restricted at 55°C environments, but there is no duty restriction with a fan unit
mounted.
The operating temperatures of the simple absolute unit and SCON are up to 40°C.
(4) Enhanced preventive and predictive maintenance functions
The present position and motor current value can be monitored, as well as the travel count,
travel distance, and motor overload status.
In addition, there are functions for predicting the life using the internal capacitor temperature
and operation time, and for monitoring decreases in fan rotation speed.
The actuator body can register individual actuator information. The individual information can be
checked at IAI even if the actuator is removed from the controller and returned.
(5) Improved usability
Equipped with a USB port as standard. Connection to a PC is possible using a commercial USB
cable. Ethernet port is also available to mount in an option.
A JOG switch and brake release switch are equipped on the front of the driver unit and EC
Connection Unit. Operation is easy even without a teaching tool.
(6) 6 types of operation modes
The following 6 operation modes can be used with RCON regardless of the host field network
type. Operation mode can be selected to suit the application. (It is not available to select the
operation mode in EC connection unit.)
