Yamaha RCX Series User Manual

When connecting the CC-Link compatible module to an existing robot controller, the CC-Link compat-

ible module must be installed in the robot controller. Check the CC-Link system specifications with the

procedure given in section 1.

Before installing the CC-Link compatible module into the robot controller, be sure to
save the data stored in the robot controller into an external memory by using VIP soft-
ware, etc.

Install the CC-Link compatible module into the robot controller while referring to the
procedure for installing an option board. Also set the station No. and communication
baud rate for the CC-Link compatible module with the procedures given in “3. Setting the
CC-Link compatible module” in chapter 2.

The robot controller will always start up with an “option board setting error” after the
CC-Link compatible module has been installed. Make the following settings as explained
below.

[Procedure]
1. Make connections to all input connectors on the front panel of the robot controller.

2. The following type of question will appear on the MPB screen, so answer as “YES”.

3. If the controller does not operate properly because of a memory error, etc., load the

data saved in step 2.1  into the controller. Refer to the controller instruction manual for
details on loading the data.

If the robot controller is not correctly connected with the CC-Link system, the mes-
sage “CC-Link Communication Error” will appear on the MPB.
