4.2 CN3 (24 VDC Power Input)

Connects to controller internal 24 VDC power supply for board logic and I/O circuits.

4.3 CN4 (System Bus Interface)

High-speed serial communication link to the controller CPU board for motion commands, parameter setup, and status monitoring.

4.4 CN5 (Safety and I/O Signals)

Includes emergency stop input, servo enable, positive/negative limit switches, alarm output, and system reset signals.

5. LED Indicators

  • PWR: Green, lit when 24 VDC power is normal

  • RUN: Green, blinking during normal servo operation

  • ALM: Red, steady when servo alarm occurs

  • ERR: Red, flashing during communication or encoder error

6. Installation Instructions

  1. Power off the controller and wait at least 5 minutes for capacitors to discharge before handling the board.

  2. Wear anti-static wristband to prevent electrostatic damage to electronic components.

  3. Align the board with the designated slot in the XRC/ERC controller cabinet.

  4. Secure the board with four M3 screws, tightening to 0.8–1.0 N·m torque.

  5. Connect all cables (CN1–CN5) according to signal assignments, ensuring correct polarity and secure connections.

  6. Restore power and verify LED indicators show normal operation (PWR on, RUN blinking).
