MR 175 Handheld Pendant, Manual
Product Description
The MICRONOR INC. MR175 Hand-Held Pendant Station was developed to make the man-
machine interface easier, safer and compatible with the base pendant station. The elegant and
ergonomically well-fitting control was developed from the ground-up including the actual users
of such devices at each design stage. The result of this development effort is increased
functionality and ergonomics. The case is made from durable glass Polycarbonate plastics.
The MR175 incorporates functions:
•
Manual Pulse Generator (MPG) 100 pulses / 360°
•
Axis selector – Rotary Knob
•
Scale Selector – Rotary Knob
•
Feed-Rate Continuous Adjust – Potentiometer
•
Start – Momentary Button
•
Tool-in/Out – Momentary Button
•
Jog – Momentary Button
•
Emergency-Stop – Switch with redundant contacts
All switches and controls are monitored by an internal microprocessor that communi-cates via
serial RS-485 (peer to peer) interface to the main station, allowing for a lightweight, yet rugged
cable design and standardized
interfacing with the CNC control
computer. All switch debouncing
and A/D conversions are
performed locally within the
MR175. The host computer
receives commands via a
transmission packet of 11 bytes
that can easily be queried for
switch status.
Customization of this unit is
accomplished by selecting the
appropriate controls and adapting
the firmware within the MR175.
