Interface
General Information
• Provide communication between the welding system and an automated controller (PLC, robot,
automation, etc.).
• Connects to the power source through LocalNet
Power source is a slave to the controller.
STOP is displayed on the power source until the Robot Ready and the Source Error Reset signal is
initialized.
An additional LocalNet connect is provided that connects directly to the ROB 5000.
If no LocalNet connection is available, a passive distributor (4,100,261⁄ may be used.
• Power source functions are controlled through the use of analog command values
0-10 VDC (or binary equivalent⁄ for welding power and arc length correction.
Welding programs may be selected on the by the robot/PLC, the power source control panel, or through an
RCU.
• Digital inputs/outputs are galvanically separated (ROB series only):
From one another,
From the LocalNet and the welding potential.
For a maximum voltage difference of 100 V.
