BOARD DESCRIPTION
POWER TERMINALS AND CONFIGURATION JUMPERS
Power terminal
The board requires an external power supply which can deliver 10-30VDC@700mA to power the logic of the board and the UC300, but keep in mind that each output can deliver up to 500mA and if powering other breakout or relays boards. So, you will need to add all the expected power consumption.
Source Output 5VDC
Source Output 10-30VDC
10-30VDC can be sourced to sensors or other cards requiring it.
Input terminals for port_1 and port_2
These terminals support signals 10-24VDC, you can connect sensors NPN, PNP,
switches, capacitive sensors, etc. set jumpers depending on signal voltage.
PORT_1
PORT_2
HIGH-SPEED INPUT PORT_2 PIN 2, 3, 4 AND 5
These terminals support signals 5VDC
Select inputs of port_1 and port_2
Set COM = +5VDC, GND or 10-24VDC to determine the common for the input signals
to be used.
JUMPER POSITION
Selecting the SCHP operation mode
The Safety Charge Pump uses pin 17 on port 2. When the SCHP is enabled on the board, then the output of the terminals will be active while the Safety Charge Pump signal is present and inactive while the SCHP is not present.
Note: also, that Relay3 on can also be tied to pin 17 or 16 on port 2. If the jumper is set to be tied to pin 17, then the relay will activate while the system is active. This can be ideal to control power to DC servos or to handle servo brakes. Or enable/disable any other feature that is associated to the system been active.
Jumper configuration driver enable
When you need to use the Driver enable to ON put the jumper, if you need it OFF remove the jumper
Jumper configuration driver fault
When you need to use Driver Fault to ON set the jumper, if you need to OFF remove the jumper.

DRIVER DISCONNECTION JUMPERS
- Note: 1-2: Cable disconnection detection.
- No cable disconnection detection.
- This configures how cable disconnect is to work. Set according to C34 board manual.
E-STOP TERMINAL
- Connect an E-STOP push button as is shown in the below images.
- Pin 10 port 1 is used for E-Stop. Since this board controls the enable line, and the enable line is the one responsible for notifying the controller of the e-stop condition, the user does not have a direct access to the pin itself, just to the e-stop terminal on the board. The E-Stop terminal is tied to the enable line and will trigger the e-stop. A fault or E-Stop triggers a low for 5 seconds to notify the controller of the fault condition, then resets to high again.
TYPICAL CONNECTIONS
-Connection with the terminal of output source of the 5VDC
LED INDICATOR
- The standby LED lights indicate that the system is ready but disabled. When Status LED, (Green LED) lights, it indicates that the system is enabled.
- There are 4 possible error sources: a driver fault, E-STOP error, SCHP error or VFD alarm. A LED will light close to the source of the fault.
VFD Connection and configuration jumper
- The VFD Alarm monitoring feature can be enabled or disabled:
- The VFD Alarm will trigger when the contacts are open and the VFD Alarm is enabled.
