DESCRIPTION Of OPERATION
4.18 Remote_PCb6 (0558038337)
The Remote Interface board allows the PC1600 to be controlled by a CNC in a mechanized plasma con-
figuration. This circuit board plugs into the Power Board and has a cable routed from the board to the front
panel of the PC1600 for the CNC interface. Reference Mechanized Conversion Kit Installation Instructions
for PC-1300/1600 part number 0558008079 for installation and conversion instructions if this unit did not
come with this option installed.
This circuit board accepts the following signals from the CNC:
The external reference input is a 0 – 10 VDC signal that is divided by two and sent to the Power Board
PCB2 for routing to the Control board PCB1.Reference the schematic.
The start signal will start and stop the power supply on CNC command. Reference the schematic.
The Corner signal is routed to the microcontroller on PCB1. When this signal is sent from the CNC, the
microcontroller ramps down the current to a level determined in software.
The ARC ON signal is sent to the CNC from the power supply. When the arc is detected by the PC1600,
PCB1 sends an active low signal to PCB6 P1 pin 8 which allows relay RL2 to close. This passes the ARC
ON signal out to the CNC.
When the PC1600 detects an internal fault the microcontroller on PCB1 puts an active low on PCB6 P1 pin
7 allowing relay RL1 to close and pass a fault signal out to the CNC.
