2.9.11. Installing the EPS board DSQC 646 for Electronic Position Switches
General
To use the option Electronic Position Switches you need to install an EPS board in the robot
controller. The procedure below will show how to install this board.
NOTE!
It is not possible to have the options EPS and SafeMove installed at the same time - that is,
only one of these two options can be installed and used.
WARNING!
The safety controller has passive monitoring, i.e. it does not stop the robot. If an axis is
outside its configured range, an output signal goes low. It is the responsibility of the
installation personnel to connect the output signals in such a way that the robot is stopped if
there is a risk of a dangerous situation.
Illustration
The EPS board should be mounted behind the axis computer.
