16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card Overview The 16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface card (1784-PM16SE) serves as a link between the SoftLogix platform and intelligent SERCOS drives. The communication link between the card and the drive(s) is via IEC 61491 SERCOS using fiber optical medium. Fiber optics assures reliable high speed data transmission with excellent noise immunity, improved performance, and elimination of interconnect wiring.

16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card Product Label The product label provides pertinent information about the card. This should be checked prior to installation to verify that you have the proper card for your application.
16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card 11 Card Identification Switch The Card Identification Switch is a slotted rotary switch with 16 positions (0-9 and A-F). When each card is installed in your computer, this switch must be set to a unique setting to identify the individual 1784-PM16SE card from the other 1784-PM16SE cards installed in the computer. (A 1784-PM16SE can have the same switch setting as a 1784-PM02AE card without creating a problem.) Use a small slotted screwdriver to select a setting.

Fixer tous les connecteurs externes reliés à cet équipement à l'aide de vis, loquets coulissants, connecteurs filetés ou autres moyens fournis avec ce produit.
16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card Access the Computer’s PCI Local Bus Expansion Slots To install the card, you must access the computer’s PCI local bus expansion slots. Refer to your computer’s user guide for instructions on how to: 1. Perform an orderly computer shutdown using the operating system menu. 2. Turn off the power to the host computer and all attached devices. 3. Disconnect the computer from its AC power sources. Disconnect all other devices in the computer from their power sources.
16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card 15 If you have additional cards to install, repeat steps 1, 2, 3, and 4 for each card. 5. Replace the computer’s cover. 6. Turn on the computer to make sure it comes up correctly. If the computer then: powers up go to step 5. hangs up • The card is not installed correctly. • You should remove all other cards and try again. If you continue to experience difficulty, call Technical Support. 7. Install the PC Driver.
16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card IMPORTANT Each additional SoftLogix controller requires additional computer hardware resources that can impact performance. Additional computer processor capabilities or an increase in the motion Coarse Update Periods may be required. See publication 1789-UM002 Using Multiple SoftLogix Controllers for more information. IMPORTANT Producing and consuming motion data between SoftLogix Controllers is not recommended.
16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card 17 Fiber Optic Cables The 1784-PM16SE card is connected to the drive(s) via a fiber optic cable. These cables can be either made of plastic or glass. Plastic Fiber Optic Cables The card is connected to the drive(s) via a 1000 µm plastic simplex fiber optical cable. Plastic fiber optic cables have a transmission range of 1 meter to 32 meters. The maximum bend radius is 2.5 cm.

16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card 19 Fiber Optic cables made from glass are a better conduit for the light to pass through thus increasing the length of cable that may be used and still supply a strong enough signal for use with the 1784-PM16SE card. The card is connected to the drive(s) via a 200 µm glass fiber optical cable. Glass fiber optic cables have a transmission range of 1 meter to 200 meters. The maximum bend radius is 2.5 cm.
16 Axis PCI SERCOS interface Card Cable Connector Handling and Maintenance When cables are not in use, keep the ends covered with the dust covers that came with the cables. This helps to keep dust and small particles from blocking the optic path. Good system performance is dependent on clean port optics and cable ferrules to avoid obstructing the optical path. Clean compressed air is often sufficient to remove particles of dirt. You can also use methanol on a cotton swab.
