Installation
1.
Place the carriage on the table rails ensuring that the Carriage Encoder Assembly will
be toward the back of the machine (the power cord side of the machine).The back side
of the carriage has an encoder assembly attached to the rear cross-piece. Be sure to
place the carriage on the frame correctly (see Photo 1).
2.
Place the machine on the carriage.
3.
Plug the Ribbon cable into the Carriage Encoder Assembly. The connector is keyed, so
make sure the keyed portion of the cable connector aligns with the keyed portion of the
encoder connector.
4.
The remaining length of cable comes back under the Power Pod from the Rear
Encoder Assembly, behind the machine, and into the 9-pin serial port of the machine
(see Photo 2).
5.
REMEMBER
that if the machine is to be removed from the carriage, the cable must be
disconnected from the Carriage Encoder Assembly. The other two connectors on the
cable should remain in place. Failure to unplug the cable when removing the machine
from the carriage could result in damage to the cable, encoders, and carriage.
