2.1 Installation
This section introduces the installation of the basic configuration with backplanes and CPU/modules. For detailed
installation information including other components, please refer to AH Motion Controller
–
Hardware Manual.
2.1.1 CPU Rack Installation in a Control Panel
The essential steps of installing an AH Motion Controller system begin with mounting a motion backplane.
The motion controller has to be installed in a closed control box. In order to ensure that the PLC dissipates heat properly,
the space between the motion controller and the control box has to be larger than 50 millimeters.
Keep the motion controller away from high-voltage equipment, high-voltage wires, and high-voltage motors.
In order to prevent the temperature of a motion controller from rising, do not install the motion controller vertically on
the bottom/top in the control box.
Install a motion controller horizontally in the control box, as shown above.
If you intend to increase the number of modules, you have to leave some space for installing the modules in the control
box.
2.1.2 Mounting a Backplane
Fixing a backplane by screws
Mount the backplane on a plane by means of M5 screws, as illustrated below. To fix the backplane, you need to
evaluate the length of a screw, the size of a thread, and whether to use a nut according to the actual condition of the
plane unless there are specific specifications for a screw which are indicated in the pictures below.
1. Tighten the M5 screws in the holes indicated by a.
