2.1.7 Serial Link Connection
REMARK: for the first installation it is strongly recommended to use either the
Vickers keyboard or the DBTALK communication program.
2.1.7.1 Vickers Keyboard
The Vickers keyboard is an optional accessory product (CG5001 code) which can be used
for drive setup and monitoring. The syntax and the list of commands are included in the
User's Manual.
If problems occur when attempting to communicate with the Vickers keyboard, the Baud rate
is most likely set incorrectly. To adjust the correct Baud rate:
- press <CTRL>
- press <CR>
- type <Y> to change Baud rate
- press <CR>
2.1.7.2 DBTALK Communication Program
See Appendix B.
2.1.8 Other Wiring
•
the braking resistor
•
the flat cable for auxiliary supplies
•
the keyboard (or PC, see Par. 2.1.7.1)
•
all the analog references
2.2 Installation
2.2.1 Starting Sequence
•
Connect 230 Vac (or 110 Vac) single phase power supply.
•
Multimodule configuration only. Disconnect the first module from the serial link and assign
basic address to the second module and so on for the next modules (all the modules from
factory being usually configured with address 1,2,3 if 3-axis or with address 1,2 if 2-axis).
Example of basic address assignment for the 2nd module, the first module being triple-axis:
FROM KEYBOARD (see Chapter 3 for a detailed description of commands)
1 SA 4 <CR>
Assign basic address 4 to the second module (its primary axis)
4 SV <CR>
Save the address configuration
