Screw-Terminal Field-Wiring Adapter Blocks

Several manufacturers make screw-terminal field-wiring blocks, usually DIN-rail mountable.

These can be connected to the XDIO via a suitable shielded 50-pin cable (user-supplied). Adept

3.7 Belt Encoder Interface

For use with conveyor tracking, the Adept SmartController EX motion controller supports four

independent external belt encoders through a 26-pin, female, D-sub connector. The pin assign-

ments for the Belt Encoder connector are shown in the following table. See the figure Belt

Encoder Typical Input Circuit on page 51 for a typical input circuit drawing.

NOTE:An adapter cable (Adept P/N: 09550-000) is available to split the 26-pin

Adept SmartController EX motion controller connector into two 15-pin connections,

compatible with the SmartController CX. The 15-pin adapter is Adept P/N: 09443-

000. Each 15-pin adapter provides two M12 connections.

All encoder inputs for the Adept SmartController EX motion controller use a scheme similar to

an RS-422 differential receiver based on industry standard 75175 integrated circuits. The dif-

ference is that a custom resistor network and two differential receivers are used on each of the

A and B inputs. See the figure Belt Encoder Typical Input Circuit on page 51 for a schematic.

Adept strongly recommends using differential encoder outputs for maximum noise immunity.

See the Adept ACE User's Guide for more information on setting up and programming a con-

veyor-tracking application.

NOTE:Conveyor tracking requires the eV+ Extensions License, which can be

obtained from Adept.
