Fig.1: Design of the controller
The ekr CON 100 is a microprocessor-controlled web guiding
controller.
The compact housing of the controller contains the entire control
electronics.
The operation is carried out using the control panel on the front of
the device. The illuminated graphic display shows the different
operating states and all important control parameters graphically.
The sockets, connectors and terminal strips on the back of the
device allow the connection of all necessary web guiding system
components (e.g. sensors, actuators, servo center transducers,
remote controls, etc.). The integrated network interface also
permits the communication of the controller with an external
control system (e.g. PLC, PC, machine control system).*
* The network connection is currently not supported.
