6. ETHERNET RJ45 connector, for connection to the PC running the
Flair Motion Control software. The Ethernet port is rated at
100Mbits/sec but can operate at lower speeds of 10 Mbits/sec or less.
7. RIG/HEADS connector is connected to the DATA IN connector on
the rig or head and is used to provide the firmware transfer and to
control the rig or head using Flair motion control software. For
pin-out information see Rig/Heads connector on page 20.
8. LTC I N connector is used to connect to other equipment in the setup
that can be synchronized with Flair using a time code. Flair can be
synchronised to an externally produced time code. For pin-out
information see LTC In connector on page 22.
10. TRIGGERS connector, for connecting the RT-14 to provide some
inputs and outputs. For example, you might need to start and stop
another machine, light other equipment using a voltage signal as
triggered by Flair. Reversely, Flair may need to be started and
stopped by an external source providing a changing voltage signal.
For pin-out information see Triggers connector on page 21.
11. E-STOP BOLT connector for connecting to the Emergency Stop for
Bolt. For pin-out information see E-Stop bolt connector on page 22.
12. E-STOP connector for connecting to the Emergency Stop. The
Emergency stop or E-Stop is a necessary safety feature fitted to
almost all motion control equipment. The E-Stop button is placed
close to the operator and pressed when the rig is required to be
stopped immediately. For pin-out information see E-Stop connector
on page 23.
13. 24V IN connector. The RT-14 requires a 3-pin, 24 Volt DC power
supply. For pin-out information see 24V In connector on page 23.
Note
If the system is a Bolt, connect the cable on the Emergency Stop to
the E-STOP BOLT connector on the RT-14.
