Analog Input Option

(p/n OPT-AT6N50)-A)

OPT-AT6N50-A is an
optional analog input
card that installs into
your computerÕs ISA
slot, next to the AT6n50
PC card. It provides up
to four 

±

10V 14-bit

analog inputs (two
inputs for the AT6250
and four inputs for the
AT6450).

Before You Begin

          

WARNINGS

          

The AT6n50 is used to control your systemÕs electrical and mechanical components.
Therefore, you should test your system for safety under all potential conditions.  Failure to do
so can result in damage to equipment and/or serious injury to personnel.

Always remove power to the computer before:

¥ Installing or removing the AT6n50 PC card
¥ Adjusting the DIP switches on the AT6n50 PC card after it is installed in the computer
¥ Connecting electrical devices to the AT6n50 PC card after it is installed in the computer

Recommended Installation Process

This chapter is

organized

sequentially to best

approximate a typical

installation process.

1. Review the general specifications.
2. Perform configuration/adjustments (if necessary).
3. Install the AT6n50 PC card (and the ANI option card, if you ordered one) in your computer.
4. Mount the AT6n50 AUX board.
5. Connect all electrical system components.
6. Test the installation.
7. Mount the motor and couple the load.
8. Tune the AT6n50 for optimum performance (if you are using Servo Tuner, refer to the

instructions in the 

Servo Tuner User Guide

; otherwise, refer to Appendix A).

9. Program your motion control functions.  Programming instructions are provided in the

6000 Series ProgrammerÕs Guide

 and the 

6000 Series Software Reference

.  We recommend

using the programming tools provided in Motion Architect (found in your ship kit).  You
can also benefit from our iconic programming interface, Motion Builder (sold separately).

Electrical Noise Guidelines

¥

Do not route high-voltage wires and low-level signals in the same conduit.

¥

Ensure that all components are properly grounded.

¥

Ensure that all wiring is properly shielded.

¥

Noise suppression guidelines for I/O cables are provided on page 21.

¥

General noise-reduction guidelines are also provided in the Parker Compumotor catalog.
