If the Extruder Speed Control Interface will be powered by your 0-10 volt Extruder Drive Cable,
REMOVE the jumper between J14 and J15 located on the On the Extruder Speed Control
Interface circuit board.
If the Extruder Speed Control Interface will be powered by the optional 24 volt power supply (to
provide an isolated power source), DO NOT remove the jumper between J14 and J15 located
on the On the Extruder Speed Control Interface circuit board.
G2 Software Cabling
The G2 software is designed to communicate with LIW Controllers and control the LineMaster
equipment. Communication with the LIW Controller can be done using serial communication
lines or Ethernet communication lines. Ethernet is the recommended method. The LineMaster
controller has both an Ethernet port and a serial port for communication purposes. Decide
whether you want to communicate over Ethernet or serial and read the following brief outline
for installing communication lines.
The basic G2 Software Starter kit will include a G2-SA (serial signal amplifier and security key)
or G2-SA-E (USB security key).
The following diagrams provide an overview of typical serial and Ethernet communication
networks. With Ethernet, standard, off the shelf Ethernet components can be used. Maguire
Products does not supply Ethernet components. With serial networks, Maguire Products can
supply pre-terminated standard lengths of serial cable and connector boxes. Please speak to
a Maguire sales person or review the Pre-sales Guide on our website for more information.
