INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Ethernet unit for the YAMAHA single-axis/dual-axis ro- bot controllers SRCP/SRCD/ERCX/SRCX/DRCX series.

This is an optional unit to allow connecting YAMAHA single-axis/dual-axis robot con- trollers SRCP/SRCD/ERCX/SRCX/DRCX series (hereafter called "controller") to the widely used Ethernet which is a de facto standard for office equipment network.

This manual describes typical examples for taking safety measures, installing wiring, making machine settings and operating the machine to ensure that the Ethernet unit is used safely and effectively. Be sure to read this manual before use. Even after reading this manual, keep it in a safe, easily accessible location so it can be referred to whenever needed. When moving this unit, always make sure this manual accompanies it, and make sure that the person who will actually use this Ethernet unit reads this manual thor- oughly.

This manual only contains information involving the Ethernet unit. Please refer to the controller user’s manual for information about basic controller operation and program- ming, etc.

The TPB screen displays in this manual are for the DRCX series dual-axis robot control- ler screens and so may differ somewhat from the SRCP/SRCD/ERCX/SRCX series sin- gle-axis robot controller screens. Please note that this will cause no problem with con- troller or Ethernet unit functions.
