2-5 Overview
DC Power Supplies
There are up to three power supplies in the console:
• Multiple output
•
Two 400-watt − provides power to the dual spray gun cards
• One 120-watt 24 − provides 24 Vdc power to the PC and relay board
NOTE: The relay board converts 24 Vdc to 12 Vdc for the display.
Dual Spray Gun Cards
Each dual spray gun card in the card cage provides electrostatic controls for two Encore
automatic powder spray guns. The cards provide a 0−20 VAC (peak) signal to drive the
electrostatic power supplies inside the Encore spray guns. The dual spray gun card also
provides process feedback to the operator interface.
Spray Gun Pump Control
The iControl console and the manual spray gun controllers control the Prodigy HDLV
powder pumps through the CAN network. In the pump cabinet, one pump control card
controls two pumps.
Refer to the Prodigy HDLV pump and pump panel manuals for wiring diagrams, parts
lists, and other information.
Internal and External Networks
The iControl 2 system uses both a CAN network for internal communications and an
Ethernet network for external communications.
CAN Network: Handles communications between the spray gun control cards, iFlow
modules, and the iControl 2 PC. The CAN network is also used to communicate with the
spray gun control cards and iFlow modules in auxiliary consoles. If two booths are on the
same line, the CAN network can also communicate with auxiliary consoles controlling the
second booth spray guns.
Ethernet Network: Handles communications between the iControl 2 system, the main
electrical control panel, and the part ID panel(s).
