2 Installation and Setup
2.1 Equipment Description
Installation and Setup
The instructions given in this section are general guidelines for installing
Pro-Face with High Speed Ethernet Server. Refer to relevant vendor
component manuals for specific installation information (see section 1.3).
All system components and most hardware items required for installation
of the Pro-face operator interface are included with your shipment. There
are, however, some required items that the customer must supply, such as
typical installation and maintenance tools and special anchor bolts (for
pedestal unit).
2.1
2.1.1
Equipment Description
Pro-face Operator Station
The Pro-face operator interface is mounted in a NEMA enclosure and is
available as a stand-alone pedestal or fence mount unit. Both the 6" and
10.4" units provide a bright, crisp, and clear QVGA display with a wide
angle viewing area, and a high resolution no-grid analog resistive touch
screen for high level screen clarity. For more detailed information, refer to
the Pro-face documentation included with your system.

Controller Cable Connector
Provides power for the unit and E-Stop and Cycle Start signal
connections.

M12 Industrial Ethernet Connector
Provides communication between the robot controller and the Pro-face
operator interface.

Cycle Start/Cycle Latched
WARNING
The operation of the CYCLE START/CYCLE LATCHED button is
dependent on the structure of the Control Master job. Any alteration of
the Control Master Job could result in injury to personnel or damage to
equipment.
Pushing the green CYCLE START/CYCLE LATCHED button initiates a
positioner sweep cycle if the robots are in HOME (Safe) position. If the
CYCLE START/CYCLE LATCHED push button is pressed while the
robots are welding, or otherwise not in HOME (Safe) position, the Cycle
Start command is “latched” into (stored in) the robot controller circuitry.
When the robots return to HOME (Safe) position, the “latched” Cycle Start
command is executed and the positioner sweeps. Circuitry in the robot
controller prevents the positioner from continuously cycling should the
operator depress and hold the CYCLE START/CYCLE LATCHED push
button.

Emergency Stop (E-STOP)
Pressing the red Emergency Stop (E-STOP) button removes servo power
and stops all system operation. Brakes are applied to the robot, and all
motion is stopped.

Installation
Pro-face Operator Station Installation
1. Unload the operator station.
2. Remove the protective plastic wrapping from the operator station.
3. Inspect the equipment for shipping damage.
NOTE
Notify your shipping contractor if you notice any shipping
damage.
4. Locate the operator station outside your system’s safety fencing and
mount to the fence (fence mount unit) or anchor to foundation
(pedestal).
CAUTION
Be absolutely certain of the correct location for the pedestal operator
station before securing it with anchor (lag) bolts.
2.2.2
Cable Connections (Standard)
After the Pro-face operator station is anchored in it’s correct location,
locate the interconnect cables for the system and route them according to
the system drawings and schematics included in your system
documentation package.
A shielded, male-to-male, M12 industrial Ethernet cable (8-Pin) is required
for all Ethernet connections. If you are not using a switch/router, you may
require a cross-over Ethernet cable. Be sure to ground only one end of the
Ethernet cable to avoid ground loop problems.
