Chapter 4 Kinetix 6000M System Connector Data
IDM units have three 5-pin, M12, digital input connectors. Allen-Bradley
(Bulletin 889D) DC micro-style patchcords, splitters, and V-cables are available
with straight and right-angle connectors for making connections from the IDM
unit to input sensors.
For the most popular patchcord specifications, refer to the Connection Systems
Quick Selection Guide, publication CNSYS-BR001
. For complete information,
refer to On-Machine™ Connectivity, publication M117-CA001
.
The IDM unit only supports PNP (active high or sourcing) inputs.
Single Normally Closed (NC) Sensor Connection
Normally closed sensors are used for limit (overtravel) switches on the IDM unit.
Any 4-pin or 5-pin, M12, A-code, 1-1 pass through cable can be used to connect a
normally closed sensor. Refer to Figure 13
.
Figure 13 - Single NC Sensor Connection Example
IMPORTANT
Unused input connectors must have protective covers installed to maintain the
IDM IP rating. Torque each cover to 0.6 N•m (5 lb•in) to ensure a tight seal.
IMPORTANT
To improve registration input EMC performance, refer to the System Design for
Control of Electrical Noise Reference Manual, publication GMC-RM001
.
IMPORTANT
Overtravel limit input devices must be normally closed.
