3.7 Additional Axis Function (CR3-535M controller only)
The CR3-535M controller is equipped with an additional axis interface for controlling an additional axis when a
traveling axis or rotary table is added to the robot. A maximum of eight axes of servo motors can be controlled at
the same time by connecting a general-purpose servo amplifier (MR-J2S-B, MR-J2M series) that supports Mit
-
subishi's SSC Net.
Refer to the separate "Additional axis interface Instruction Manual" for details on the additional axis function.
3.7.1 Wiring of the Additional Axis Interface
Table 3-4 shows the connectors for additional axes inside the controller and Fig. 3-5 shows a connection example
(configuration example). The magnet contactor control connector for additional axes, AXMC1, is designed to
accommodate circuit connection with improved safety in Mitsubishi's industrial robot systems connecting addi
-
tional axes. Please implement the appropriate circuit connection by refere to Page 56, "3.8 Magnet contactor
control connector output (AXMC) for addition axes".
