The Enhanced RIO module is pictured below.
WARNING: The RIO contains unshielded 24 VDC signals and pins. This
product is intended to be mounted in a cabinet or machine chassis that is
not accessible when power is turned on.
Machine Vision Software and Cameras
The Guidance 1400 Series controllers support the PreciseVision machine vision system. This is a vision
software package than can run in a PC.
Cameras must be connected via Ethernet or USB. Vendors such as DALSA already offer a variety of
Ethernet machine vision cameras. In addition, other vendors offer USB cameras that are supported in
PreciseVision.
Precise offers an Arm-Mounted Camera Option for certain robots. Contact Precise for details.
Machine Safety
Safety and Agency Certifications
Precise systems can include computer-controlled mechanisms that are capable of moving at high speeds
and exerting considerable force. Like all robot and motion systems, and most industrial equipment, they
must be treated with respect by the user and the operator.
This manual should be read by all personnel who operate or maintain Precise systems, or who work
within or near the work cell.
We recommend that you read ENISO 10218-1:2011 and 10218-2:2011 Robots for Industrial
Environments, Safety Requirements, ISO/TS 15066 “Robots and Robotic Devices – Collaborative
Robots” and ISO 13849-1:2006 Safety of machinery — Safety-related parts of control systems.
