General Remarks; Signal Management In Parallel Operation - Fronius ROB 3000 Bedienungsanleitung

Parallel operation of ROB 3000 and field bus

General remarks

NOTE!
Parallel operation of two ROB 3000 automatic-welder interfaces is not supported.
Parallel operation of the ROB 3000 with a field-bus coupler makes it possible to operate
the power source via two robot control systems.
Where a field-bus coupler is used, this is connected to the LocalNet. If only one Local-
Net connection socket is free, the LocalNet passive distributor (4,100,261) can be used.
NOTE!
The LocalNet passive distributor cannot be used together with a TIG JobMaster
welding torch.
IMPORTAT! In parallel operation with a field-bus coupler, the "2-step mode" automati-
cally remains selected.
It only becomes possible to change between operating modes again when the field-bus
coupler is no longer connected.
Signal manage- The "Arc ON" signal is managed in parallel. If the "Arc ON" signal is initialised on the
ment in parallel ROB 3000 or on the field bus, the welding process begins -
operation
provided that:
-
-
The "Robot ready" signal is managed in serial.
Making the power source ready for welding:
-
-
If the "Robot ready" signal drops out on the ROB 3000 or the field bus, the welding ope-
ration is stopped immediately.
In the selection of Jobs, the field bus takes priority over the ROB 3000.
To select Jobs via the ROB 3000
-
To select Jobs on the operating panel of the power source
-
-
the output signal "Power source READY" is outputted
the input signal "Robot ready" is initialised on the ROB 3000 and on the field bus
Initialise the input signal "Robot ready" on the ROB 3000 and the field bus
Initialise the "Source error reset" signal on the field bus
specify Job number "0" on the field bus
specify Job number "0" on the field bus
specify Job number "0" on the ROB 3000
