Rockwell MobileView Support
A.1.1 Overview
In 2015 Rockwell introduced their own solution for Teach Pendant
hardware, called the MobileView Tethered Operator Terminal product line,
referred to as MobileView for the remainder of this document. Yaskawa
suggests that all customers and integrators use this product with the
MLX200 solution from October 2015 on forward. Yaskawa will end sales
of the Fuji pendant and instead recommend that the end user acquire
hardware from their Rockwell distributor independently.
Yaskawa will not sell this product directly because most end users already
receive favorable pricing from their distributor, due to volume of Rockwell
products purchased. Yaskawa would not offer significant value added if
we did sell this product and instead would simply be passing along a
product with additional mark-up.
Our path forward is to suggest components and show the wiring example
in this manual. Customers who are already familiar with PanelView
hardware and FactoryTalk View should be familiar with the software
provided by Rockwell to complete the integration of a MobileView pendant
using the .APA file provided with every MLX200 system.
A.1.2 Components
The following chart lists the components which are recommended
(purchased separately) for integration with a MLX200 master panel. Other
components (relays, fuses, etc) may be substituted if the function is the
result.
