Grounding
To avoid any problems with electrical noise that could negatively affect system function,
make sure that:
1. The AC power cable coming into the PWR box is always provided with a Ground
and c
onnected to the proper connector (Protective Earth - PE).
2. The structure where the readers, controllers, encoders/tachometers, and photo-
electric sensors are mounted is grounded to the conveyor or to the PE terminal
inside the PWR
.
3. The Shield wires from the Encoder/Tachometer and photoelectric sensor cables
ar
e connected to the proper Shield terminal in the CBX box.
4. Normally, steps 1 through 3 will guarantee proper function. In case of problems
s
uch as transmission of strange or wrong characters, devices stop working without
any reason, or other unexpected behavior, try connecting the CBX or Controller
Earth terminal to the PE terminal inside the PWR box.
