Installation
Installing the components that allow your ProCam 1500 to operate your servo feed is
quite simple. Connecting ProCam 1500 to your feed requires these tasks:
•
Installation of SFI firmware into ProCam 1500
•
Wiring connections from the ProCam 1500 TB103 terminal block to the RS-232
port of your servo feed controller
Each step is described below. Installation is basically the same no matter what type of
feed you have. Any significant differences among feeds will be noted.
Installing the ProCam 1500 Servo Feed Interface
Before starting, make sure that you have all these components in your kit:
•
SFI firmware chip (EPROM) (unless factory-installed at time of order)
•
20-foot 2-conductor shielded cable with a large DB25 connector attached on one
end
•
10-pin phoenix connector
Follow these steps to install the components:
WARNING!
ELECTRICAL HAZARD!
Dangerous voltages are present. Verify that the
power to ProCam 1500 and to your feed have been
turned OFF before servicing any components!
Servicing must be performed by qualified personnel.
Installing SFI firmware
To upgrade your ProCam 1500 to communicate with your servo feed, follow these
instructions:
1. With power to ProCam 1500 turned off, notice that the LCD display on the front
panel is blank and the angle/RPM display unlit.
2. Carefully remove the front panel assembly from your enclosure by loosening the
hardware and temporarily propping the unit on a flat surface.
3. Locate the firmware chip located at U104 on the ProCam 1500 processor board
(refer to Figure 2-1). Notice that this firmware chip has a label on it.
