RCP6
â– Connection among Hub Unit, RCP6S Gateway Controller and Actuators
Shown below is a cable layout diagram and model numbers when a controller for RCP6S
Gateway is to be connected to a hub unit.
It is available that a controller for RCP6 Gateway is connected directly to the gateway unit
without using a hub unit. In this case, the controller should be connected to the axis control
connector.
[D] When connection is established with a pulse motor type actuator (RCP5 or 6)
Connect a controller for RCP6S Gateway to the hub unit (or a gateway unit) and connect a
RCP5 or 6 actuator on the further end.
[E] When connection is established with a pulse motor type actuator (RCP2 to 4)
Connect a controller for RCP6S Gateway (RCM-P6PC) to the hub unit (or a gateway unit) and
connect a RCP2 to 4 actuator on the further end via a connector conversion unit.
