Safety Guideline

  • Please read the manual carefully before installing, commissioning, and operating the product.
  • PWM signal and analog signal interfaces can only be used separately, if using them at the same time there is a risk of damage.
  • The maximum input voltage of 0-10V analog signal must not exceed 10V, if it exceeds 10V, it will damage the control board.
  • Please connect the power supply and other cables correctly according to the instructions in the manual, strictly prohibit unplugging or violently disassembling the terminals, and ensure that all connections are firm and reliable.
  • Always disconnect the device from the power source when it is not used for long or when it is being moved.
  • This product should be used in a dry environment, to avoid high temperature, humidity, and violent vibration, shock.
  • Do not use unsuitable cables to connect to the relay’s power outlet.

Interfaces Introduction

The following instructions are based on US/JP Relay Controller Module as an example

Cable Connection Reference Table

Cable Marking Applicable CNC Router Models
Signal Cable A 3018-PRO, 3018-PROVer V2, 3020-PRO MAX V2, 3030-PROVer MAX,

4040-PRO, 4040-Reno

Signal Cable B| PROVerXL 4030 V1
Signal Cable C| 3018-PRO, 3020-PRO MAX
Signal Cable D| PROVerXL 4030 V2
Signal Cable E| 3018-PROVer

In the case of the 6050 CNC, customers will need to use the laser cables that come with the CNC for connecting to the laser port.

Wiring and Control

Connect the signal cable. (Take 4040 PRO and US as an example)
Turn off the power switch of CNC router and select the cable you need. Plug cable into the laser interface of the CNC machine and the PMW interface of the relay power supply.
(Refer to page 1 for the cable correspondence table)

Connect the power supply
Plug in the cables as shown below and make sure all cables are connected tightly.

Power on
After all the cables are connected successfully, turn on the power of the CNC router, then turn on the AC power switch of the iMaticBox-02, finally turn on the relay enable switch. When the relay enable switch shows a blue light, this means the signal input control is active.

Software Control (Candle as an example)
Open the Candle control software, then select and make sure the $32=0.
(Note: At this point the CNC router needs to be connected to the computer)

Control start/stop (Candle as an example)

  • In the spindle control area of Candle, click on the start/stop spindle icon to start the spindle motor on the CNC router. At the same time, the device connected to the relay power socket is energized, when the spindle motor is stopped, the device connected to the relay power socket is turned off.
  • Normally, the spindle speed increases and decreases as the spindle starUstop RPM progress bar is dragged. When the spindle speed changes, the device connected to the relay power outlet does not lose power. When the spindle speed falls below about 0.5% of the maximum speed, the device connected to the relay power socket will also be turned off.

Note: The relay power socket will be accompanied by a “popping,. sound of the relay when it is controlled by the signal, which is a normal phenomenon .

Two cases when multiple devices are connected

For Using Only PWM Controlled Devices

  1. If you only use a device that needs a PWM signal (like a laser module) and not the one connected to the power socket, press the relay enable switch to turn it off. You’ll see the blue light turn off when it’s deactivated.
  2. With the relay enable switch off, the relay power socket won’t receive any control signals, so the connected device won’t have power until you turn the switch back on.
  3. To set up the PWM-controlled device, connect one end of a signal cable to the PWM signal output connector at the back of the relay power outlet.
  4. Then, connect the other end of the cable to the device you wish to control with the PWM signal.

For Using Both PWM and Power Socket Devices

  1. To use both a PWM-controlled device and a device connected to the power socket, ensure the relay enable switch is on. The blue light will be on when the switch is active.
  2. In this state, the relay power socket will respond to both PWM and analog signals, providing power to the connected device.
  3. To connect the PWM-controlled device like a laser module, plug one end of a signal cable into the PWM signal output connector at the back of the relay power outlet.
  4. Finally, connect the other end of the signal cable to the device that requires PWM signal control.

Analog signal control
Please disconnect the power supply of the machine before connecting the signal cable. Use the signal cable that matches the machine, connect one end to the 0-10V signal output port on the engraving machine, and the other end to the analog signal input port at the back of the relay power socket; all other connection operations are the same as when using PWM signal control.

Note: The maximum input voltage of 0-10V analog signal should not exceed 11V, if it exceeds 11V, it will damage the control board.

Install iMaticBox-02 Relay Controller Module

The relay controller module can be secured on the desktop using the Allen wrench and screws.
