ZMP-SynqNet Controller |
Safety Warnings
During installation, solid electrical contact must be
ensured at connectors; otherwise, noise and power problems will develop.
(Connections should be verified through inspection and testing.)
Standard safety rules prevail during installation of
any hardware. Some are summarized below for the ZMP. For more information,
refer to local occupational safety regulations and the manufacturer of
your motion drive.
Turn Off All Power Before Installing Equipment
Before installing any motion control equipment, including
ZMP controllers, power should be switched OFF. Unplug all power plugs
from their sources of power.
Observe ESD
Precautions
To prevent damage to controller and drive electronics
due to electrostatic discharge (ESD), service personnel are cautioned
to observe proper grounding during handling of components.
Grounding straps should be worn at all
times when handling ZMP-SynqNet electrical components and connection
hardware.
Define
and Clear a Safety Zone!
During installation and testing of motion control
hardware-software, a safety zone should be defined around moving components
and kept clear of personnel, hands, fingers and loose hardware. During
repowering of the system, motion control components may behave erratically
due to misconnected lines, or wrongly configured software settings.
Sudden and unexpected moves by components can cause injury, property
damage, or even death!
Under NO circumstances, should
a motion system be tested or operated while personnel are within the
safety zone.
Additionally, beware of flying debris from unsecured
hardware operating at high speeds. The use of safety shielding is highly
recommended.
