7. Initial system installation
This chapter helps a new user to install a controller for the first time (in its minimal configuration). In case of a
more specific application, refer to the corresponding ’Hardware Manual’ for more information about the
electrical interfaces.
7.1 Controller connection
Every new controller should first be connected separately (without Turbo-ETEL-Bus) to check its interfaces.
Caution: Do not switch on the controller before all connections are wired! Never plug or unplug an encoder
connector while the controller is switched on; this could damage the encoder's reading head!
First of all, always connect the protective earth (PE) before any other connection!
• Use the cables delivered with the controller(s). If you manufacture your own cables, refer to the
corresponding ’Hardware Manual’ for more information about the pin assignment and the shielding.
7.1.1 Stand-alone configuration
For a stand-alone configuration, plug the connectors as listed below:
• When the connections are realized, turn on the power supply.
• The controller performs a SELF TEST and will display on the LCD its: controller family, product number,
firmware version present in the controller, axis number, presence of an optional board,....
• A message (for example: DSC2P READY) appears on the LCD display (the controller is not in the ’Power
On’ mode).
Never connect the motor if ’Power On’ already appears on the LCD display!
Remark: If there is no physical display on the controllers, the user can use M95.<axis> (the conversion is
automatically done by the DLLs) or can select ’scope drive LCD display’ in the ’scope’ menu of
the scope tools (ETT) to display a software display indicating the status, the error and the warning
messages.
• The system is ready to work.
Interfaces to be connected Required Optional
1) EBL2 serial communication (refer to the corresponding 'Hardware Manual' to know the connector number).
No other application should run on the PC port used for the EBL2 serial communication!
