LYNXEYE XE Detector User Manual
DOC-M88-EXX240 V1 – 03.2014 5-3
See Figure 4.3 for the connection of the wiring. Guide the Detector Power cable and the LAN cable
through the safety labyrinth at the back of the D8 enclosure. Make sure that no cables will be pinched
when closing the back cover.
1. Connect Detector Power cable to detector (Figure 4.6), to D8 control rack and to the distribution
board.
2. Connect Detector Data cable to detector (Figure 4.6) and to LAN switch close to the D8 controller.
3. Use a cable tie on the detector to fix the cables and remove the stress on them.
4. The clock pulses are generated by the Axes Indexer Boards (3 identical plugs labeled 1x B231X5
and 2 x B232X11) and by the distribution board (labeled B296X11). It is important to tighten all
screws carefully for a good electrical contact.
4.1. The connection of the motor clock cable differs dependent on the axes indexer boards. In any
case the filter plug has to be attached to the clock pulse output where the tube/omega motors
are connected (standard is B231X5 port):
On the B231 2-axes indexer board the X5 9-pin socket on the front side or
On the B232 4-axes indexer board the X11 9-pin socket on the top side.
4.2. The connection for the distribution board uses also a filter plug. The plug has to be attached to
the socket B296X11
5. Use the network cable to connect the LYNXEYE XE and an unused LAN adapter port of the of the
D8 control rack.
