5.6 Establishing the electric con-
nection
NOTICE
Damaging of the machine
through heavy voltage
fluctuations and power surges
Heavy voltage fluctuations and power surges can
disrupt the control unit and can cause system failures.
Connect the machine to a dedicated current circuit
or ensure that no devices are connected that can
cause heavy voltage fluctuation when switched on.
If heavy voltage fluctuations cannot be avoided,
install a surge protector that protects the machine
from heavy voltage fluctuations.
NOTICE
Short-circuit hazard when the
machine is too cold
If the machine is transported from a cold environment
into a warmer environment, a short circuit may occur
caused by condensate.
Before switching on the machine after trans-
portation, ensure the following:
n
The ambient air has the allowed temperature.
n
The machine has the same temperature as the
ambient air. This will take at least 48 hours.
n
The machine is completely dry.
The machine requires a continuous power supply for
proper operation.
1. Plug the provided power cable into the power con-
nection at the connection panel of the machine.
2. If power failures occur regularly at the installation
location or if there are frequent voltage fluc-
tuations, install an Uninterruptible Power Supply
(UPS), type online/ VFI (IEC 62040-3, class 1).
If a power failure occurs during job execu-
tion, the tool may break and the blank may
be destroyed.
3. Insert the plug of the cable into a socket that is pro-
tected by a Residual Current Device/ Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter.
5.7 Integrating the machine into the
network
The following diagram visualizes how commands are
sent to the machine using our network technology:
FIG. 19 DIAGRAM: HOW COMMANDS ARE SENT OVER THE NETWORK
SX Virtual Link is similar to a device driver that transfers
data between DENTALCNC and the machine.
The network integration workflow is as follows:
1. Prepare the installation.
2. Configure SX Virtual Link and DENTALCNC.
Preparing the installation
For integrating the machine into your network, you
will require the assistance of your IT specialist.
Ensure that your network is working without disrup-
tions. Network failures will lead to aborted jobs and
unusable machining results.
Do not contact customer support for setting up your
network or troubleshooting network issues.
Customer service will only help you with machine-
related issues.
If you want to control multiple machines with 1 CAM
computer, use our multi-machine control feature.
See the documentation for the manufacturing soft-
ware.
1. Plug the Ethernet cable into the network port at the
connection panel of the machine.
2. Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the
network port of the CAM computer. Do not use a
router, hub or switch to connect the 2 units at this
point.
